How far do you have Alabama going in your bracket?

I've got 2 brackets. The one I have at work has Bama going all the way and beating Michigan St. My other bracket has them in the final 4. To me it's elite 8 or bust really. They just have to make it past Duke for another final 4.

Bracket #1- Bama over Houston was my pick.

Bracket #2 - Houston over Bama was the analytics auto pick option.

Elite 8


I think this is the realistic expectation and should be considered a success. Once you get to that point, everybody left is a 1 or 2 seed or a team that's already beaten a 1 or 2 seed.

Everybody left is good. Since it's a lose and go home tourney, advancing beyond that round comes down to who has a hot hand and gets the good bounces on that particular day.

Wouldn't be a bad result, but after the offseason we had, finishing without any kind of championship (Players' Era, SEC regular season or tournament, or NCAA regional title) would be a disappointment relative to expectations.

The team that concerns me in the first 3 rounds is BYU. They finished the season on a tear (#5 or 6 in Torvik over the last month). Hope Wisconsin or someone takes them out.

If we make it to the Elite 8, I feel we're close to a toss up against anyone (until perhaps Florida).

Having been a big fan since I was a kid in the late 80s, it's still just unbelievable that we're on the short list of teams that could actually win the whole thing.

Since 2/1, VCU (19) is only six spots behind BYU (13) in Torvik. They’ll have their hands full with that one.

Elite 8.
I wrestled with Nelson's knee vs Flagg's ankle and finally went with head over heart. I certainly hope my bracket gets busted at that point
