OK, ball up the bracket
How come I'm the only one that went into the NCAA tournament unaware of UW-Milwaukee's upset potential? Everyone, I mean EVERYone, is bragging about how they picked Bama to go down in the first round. Not me.
After the first day, the one thing that's clear isn't necessarily that UWM is a great team. It's that the SEC, as suspected, isn't very good this year. Alabama, LSU are done. Florida almost lost to Ohio. Kentucky almost lost to the Colonels of Eastern Ky. I wasn't completely caught unaware: I only had two of those teams going to the Sweet 16 and one, Kentucky, going to the Elite 8 (in my fictitious, just-for-fun bracket that was not compiled for gambling purposes).
