Nostradamus hath entered the fray 

Your bracket looks promising, but you should have had Belmont winning it.

 
I actually wanted to write in Butler, but they didnt even make it to the dance.   

Mark will lose to me if OH state wins it all.

Which is why I'm glad they won't

Now that all my teams are gone, I just want to watch Kentucky burn.

Why the hate?  How about a little compassion for a team that hasn't won the championship in over a decade (OH St and KS have both won the championship more recently), and just a few years ago had 2 of the worst seasons in program history.  Our fans are finally able to have a team to be proud of again, and a chance to regain former glory.  What's not to love about that?

Mostly because my sister wants them to win. We have to have some rivalries. All of my favorite and least favorite teams are pretty much picked randomly based on memories I have as a child. UNC and Pitt are my two favorites, but I like Belmont and Vanderbilt because I'm going to be going to school at Belmont. Kentucky, Duke, Notre Dame, and now Syracuse are in my lists of don't like because my sister likes Kentucky, Syracuse was so overrated this year, my Grandpa hates Notre Dame and Duke, and my brother-in-law loves Duke. However, I trust Duke to win. They let me down this year. Another reason to hate them.

...Syracuse was so overrated this year, ...

They lost their best player before the tournament started, but still made the Elite 8. That doesn't sound overrated to me.... 

And VCU made the final four last year. Doesn't mean they were underrated. Luck happens.

I would argue that VCU was underrated. If small teams have NBA talent, that is hardly luck.
