Conference Tournament Predictions

ACC


I picked quite a few upsets in the ACC. Duke and UNC lovers will hate to see this. But I just have to go with my gut feeling. Georgia Tech is playing well lately and it seems their young guns are stepping up. The whole Yellow Jackets team is taking their game to the next level. I think UNC will get toppled in the semi's to BC. BC has underachieved all year. I think this is their time to get hot and get some momentum into the big dance. Jared Dudley will step up his game and so will his teammates. In the end, I like G-Tech over BC. Like I said it's just my gut feeling and at the beginning of the season I said BC or G-Tech would win the ACC Tourney, so I had to pick one of them.


SEC


I picked the favorite here in Florida. Florida has been struggling the last few games and they'll be ready to show the country they're still the top team. They need to keep making a claim for a one seed and this is the perfect opportunity to do so. Also, watch out for Arkansas, they're on the rise and could pull off some upsets.


Tune in Thursday for the Big 12 and Big 10 predictions

I love Virginia, their point guards are the truth, and that's what counts in the tournament.

Yeah I agreethey could do some damage. JR Reynolds and Singletary are the real deal. When they're both on, this Cavs team is very dangerous. But I dont know who will get it done for them if they're both off.

I don't think there is any way that Duke can get by Virginia. I agree they are for real.

Meh all around for your ACC picks. I really don't think BC is deep enough to get by Carolina, unless Hansbrough is more hurt than it seems.

As for UVA, Singletary and Reynolds are real good, but they don't have much else. I don't know, I just don't have any confidence in them after they had a shot to lock up the ACC, and they lose in the finale to Wake. I took Duke over Virginia.

In the SEC, looks good, though I'm not sure if the West will even be able to muster that many wins. Just so mediocre this year.
