It’s That Time of Year
To (hopefully not) lose money!

For my tournament bracket winner, I pick UNC. They have been the most consistent all year, have some really great young NBA-level talent, and the only other threat in their bracket is Kentucky. Also, I have a sneaky suspicion head coach Roy Williams is done soon, due to continued bouts of vertigo that make him fall to a knee on the sideline, as well as he’s been doing this shit for a long ass time. This may galvanize the team for a deep run.
As for a dark horse to win it all: UCONN at +5000. UCONN to win the South Region at +1600 is not a bad shout, either. Brima, Hamilton are NBA level talents, Kevin Ollie is a good coach (who never ages), and they have a history of doing well in this tournament and drew the weakest bracket in the South.
Finally, before the picks tonight, here is the Bill Raftery Drinking Game for those of you at home:
Florida Gulf Coast -5.5 (-110)
Vanderbilt/Wichita State Over 134 (-110)
