1. The NCAA Championship game is set and much to some's surprise it is UConn and Kentucky. Who do you think will be the 2014 NCAA Champion? 

Ty-

I had a great feeling that Kentucky would be here and I have been picking them to win for a while now or since my Bracket became completely obliterated. But I really have no idea who is going to win this game. Kentucky has beaten so many great teams on their run but it has been in all close games. It speaks to their mental toughness but it also means that they got some lucky bounces a few times on this run. I can't keep picking against UConn right? especially after how they handled Florida. I guess with a gun to my head I have to ride with Kentucky. I do think this game is either going to be UConn in an easy win or another close game where you would think Kentucky would pull it out but I think UConn has clutch players that can win that way too. I know thats hedging on my pick a little bit but I'm going to stick with Kentucky because I have changed my picks too much.

1) Another fantastic first weekend of March Madness is in the books and after a number of upsets, buzzer beaters and instant classics we have out Sweet 16. Which game was your favorite from the weekend and is there any team you are pulling for now? 

Spencer-
There were so many great games this weekend it really is hard to pick just one, but for me I think it was Wichita State and Kentucky yesterday. That game was so awesome, it was like a heavyweight fight. One team would throw a knockout punch, the other would swing right back. It was back and forth down to the wire and it sums up what the tournament is about because despite everyone doubting Kentucky's ability to make a run, they stepped up when it mattered most and took down a great team in Wichita State. As far as who to cheer for I kind of have two options really. Despite Dayton taking down my Orange I think I'm pulling for them as my Cinderella story team, but also my bracket isn't dead yet with all my Final Four picks remaining so I obviously have to cheer for my pick to win it all, Florida.
