Here's an NCAA tournament bracket not to copy

I took all the top seeds. They won't all get to the Final Four, but a lot more No. 1-seeds do than No. 2-seeds. Or No. 3-seeds. Or ... you get the idea.
Why did I take Pittsburgh to win it all? Because it was the regular-season champion of the Big East, which is supposed to be the Big Daddy of Them All. And because just about everyone else is taking Ohio State or Kansas. I can't name a single Pitt player. I figure the next three weeks will give me time to get to know the Panthers. If they don't flame out in the second-round against Old Dominion (or, more likely, Butler, since I took Old Dominion to beat the Bulldogs in the first-round).
