You heard it here first.

Rather than list the 32 first-round winners separately, I'll just note my matchups for the round of 32 with upset winner (other than 9 over 8) noted with an asterisk:

Round of 32: Kentucky over UAB, Kansas over Providence, Georgia Tech over Utah*, Gonzaga over Michigan St, St. Joe's over Charlotte, Wake over Florida ;(, Pitt over Richmond*, Oklahoma St over Memphis, Duke over Arizona, Illinois over E. Tenn St.*, Texas over N.Carolina, Miss. St. over Louisville*, Stanford over Bama, Maryland over Syracuse, W.Mich* over NC State, UConn over Dayton. (As you can tell, Western Michigan is my Sweet 16 cinderella pick).

Sweet Sixteen: Kansas over Kentucky, Gonzaga over Ga.Tech, Wake over St. Joe's, Pitt over Okla. St., Duke over Illinois, Miss.St over Texas, Maryland over Stanford, U.Conn over W.Mich.

Elite Eight: Kansas over Gonzaga, Pitt over Wake, Duke over Miss. St, U.Conn over Maryland.

Semifinals: Kansas over Pitt, U.Conn over Duke (rematch of 1999 final which I attended).

Final: U.Conn over Kansas.

There you have it. Place your bets accordingly.
