Did anyone imagine this Final Four?

[ZLBubba]

I love March Madness, but this year the madness has turned into sheer lunacy. The fact that not a single one or two seed made it to the Final Four is incredible. Duke, Pitt, Kansas, and Ohio State... each of them stellar teams with multiple NBA-caliber players yet none of them could string 40 solid minutes together.

I've given up all attempts at forecasting wins and losses. I do want Butler to make it happen this year. Butler's program is a class act, and Brad Stevens is emerging as one of the rising stars in college basketball. It would be great to see him stay at Butler and do for that school what Coach K did for Duke. Stevens has made a great start: he's been head coach since 2007 and is in his second straight Final Four. That's impressive.

So, did anyone of you pick these final four teams? Even three of the four?

I didn't do a bracket this year but oddly enough ended up watching a lot of the games. I didn't see this Final 4 coming at all. I am at a loss as to how no 1 or 2 seeds made it through. Either there is more parity in college hops or the experts no diddly squat about how to seed teams

I am pretty sure no one in the country has this Final 4. I recall sports center lamenting this fact last week, that all the brackets submit on line at espn were busted. Of course Yahoo has the largest so will be interesting to check up on tomorrow.

I am going to pull for anyone who is playing UCon, I hate them. My Alma Mater was Arizona so......

Just found this on ESPN: only two brackets in over 5 million filled out online picked the Final Four. Man, the Vegas sports books must be going crazy.

I can't believe anyone actually picked VCU, unless it was just a couple chicks picking at complete random

The odds of VCU winning those five games was 1371-1.
I sure wish I'd gambled a thousand on them.
