Last Year:
1. The ACC will be down this year but still get the most teams into the NCAA tournament. Respect and youth will do that for a conference
2. Memphis not only doesn't win C-USA but they don't even make the NCAA Tournament
3. Either Kansas or Kentucky, the two top teams, will implode due to character issues. Kansas seems like the obvious choice due to the off season issues but I bet it's Kentucky
4. The Big Ten won't be the worst major conference
5. The Pac-10 will. Thus giving us no reason to stay up late and watch USC-Washington State on FSN
6. A mid-major will make the Elite Eight (Butler of course)
7. There will be 10+ schools ranked #1 over the course of the season
8. The parity mentioned in #7 should make for a great tournament at the end of the season
9. Wisconsin and Marquette will struggle and struggle mightily. The state might not get a team in the tournament.
10. Due to #9 I expect all of you to be wearing Duke clothes by the end of the year
11. Duke probably won't win it all this year but they'll be the preseason #1 next year. (yes, I'm rationalizing a loss already)
And how did I do?
1. The ACC was down but they did not have the most teams in the tournament
2. Bingo!
3. Neither imploded but neither made the Final Four
4. Bingo!
5. Bingo!
6. Bingo!
7. Kansas had it most of the year; no where near 10 teams
8. I thought the tournament was great.
9. Neither really struggled and both made the tournament; off on this one
10. No Duke attire, but a bunch of mustaches
11. Well, they did win it all and they are the preseason #1.
