I quickly checked my brackets and went "whew"...
This stuff is fascinating to this Canadian. So many teams, how can you guys keep up on every one?
It amazes me the knowledge some peeps have about this tourney.
I think it helps that I know pretty much nothing about NCAA basketball - I have Louisville winning on one, and Kansas winning on the other one.
SO hard not to get silly and pick the upsets...

blind brackets to help me pick most of mine --- http://projects.wsj.com/blindfold-brackets-2013/ I ended up w/ Indiana over Louisville without knowing I was picking Indiana over Louisville.
I pick college basketball games well before the tournament starts so I get a little bit of a head start on research but find it almost impossible to know every team well.

Luck with your bracket.
