Since I am stuck up at my base and the government blocks a lot of the bracket websites (along with anything that is fantasy related or just plain fun), I will be breaking down my brackets by region.  I'll give you the East and Midwest today and the South and West tomorrow.  I'm not really worried about the play-in game tonight, because all that does is figure out who North Carolina gets to run over later in the week.  I won't put the seeds on the teams, because I'm sure you've at least seen the brackets a million times, even if you live under a rock.  Here are the picks:

Round One:

North Carolina - Coppin St / Mt. St. Mary's - Like I said, doesn't matter the winner of the play-in game, UNC rolls big.

Indiana - Arkansas - It is a shame that DJ White has improved his game to an All-American level when he is surrounded by immature kids that think they are owed something by the world.  IU is mentally weak.  Arkansas will win.

Notre Dame - George Mason - Luke Harangody.  Enough said.

Washington State - Winthrop - I don't see Winthrop upsetting the Cougars. 

Oklahoma - Saint Joseph's - It seems that Saint Joseph's is a team that has an increasingly large backing.  With Oklahoma's injuries to Blake Griffin and Longar Longar, I am jumping on the SJ Bandwagon as well.

Louisville - Boise State - Boise State is trying to pull off another trick play and beat Louisville, but Rick Pitino is a veteran at this and will have Louisville rolling into round two.

Butler - South Alabama - Could be a dangerous trap game for Butler, but with four seniors starting, the Bulldogs roll and gain momentum for round two.

Tennessee - American - What's more American than a team named American?  I'm all about loving this country, but I can't even pick them to beat the state of Tennessee in a game of basketball.

Round Two:

UNC - Arkansas - Psycho T and his crew run the wheels off the Arkansas vehicle.

Notre Dame - Washington State - Luke Harangody.  Enough Said.

Saint Joseph's - Louisville - Good coaching match between Martelli and Pitino.  Louisville is too strong down low in the end.

Butler - Tennessee - I feel that Butler is the superior team here and will beat the Vols.

Sweet Sixteen:

UNC - Notre Dame - The big men meet.  Harangody vs Hansbrough.  Two All-Americans battling it out.  UNC has the better supporting cast and UNC heads on.

Louisville - Butler - Who needs coaching experience when you have AJ Graves and Mike Green leading your attack?  Butler moves into the Elite Eight.

Elite Eight:

UNC - Butler - I think that Butler can beat the Tarheels.  I think that the experience and poise that the Bulldogs have can outlast UNC's explosiveness.  However, in the end, I see the Tarheels advancing to the Final Four.
