My NCAA tournament 2008 Predictions. KU finally wins all.
The Final Four: East: Tennessee, Midwest: Kansas, South: Memphis, West: Duke.
National Champion: Kansas (over Memphis)

Duke at Memphis. Memphis defeats Duke when using the same tactic it used to beat Marquette, brought Elvis ghost to wow the spectators, players and referees. While everybody sat in disbelief, Memphis players scored crazily without contention and also changed the scoreboard to Memphis 324 points - Duke - 76 points. Memphis wins.

Tennessee at Kansas. Learning from Memphis, Tennessee tried to pull the same Elvis trick to win it all. However, while the audience couldn't believe it when they saw Elvis' ghost, the Jayhawk wasn't fooled and fought the entire Tennessee squad from changing the scoreboard. In fact, using his "Heroes" special powers, the Jayhawk himself, changed the scoreboard to KU's advantage. Final score: KU 2,632.12 points - Tennessee 32.01 points.
Hey, Jayhawk, there are no decimal points in the score!

Final game: read the bottom of this post.

SORRY UNC, UCLA. At least in my bracket, you stink!

I have come up with my own 2008 NCAA tournament predictions. Since KU is my alma mater, it is obvious, once again, that I will pick Kansas to win the National Championship. Even if somebody tells me that this is impossible, and that Kansas sucks and stinks and how good the other team is and blah, blah, blah, I will still pick Kansas to win it all. If KU loses early, I will do what I have done every single year: throw away my brackets. Please KU no more loses to small teams like Bradley (2006 1st rd), Bucknell (2005 1st rd), Texas El Paso (1992, 2d rd). It's embarrassing to say the least! This may be the year for KU!


The East. Roy asks UNC that the arena's name be changed to his name. The Dean protests immediately . "With the huge help from the referees, UNC was fortunate 2 beat Arkansas. Washington State, a team that can't beat the blind-grandmas on wheelchairs team. No match 4 Roy but G Mason & Winthrop players played without their prosthetic arms & legs. Oklahoma, as usual, lost & Saint Joe celebrated as it had won the intergalactic championship of ultra basketball. Louisville... Indiana Jones sucks. Notre Dame, no Rudy. Butler, Boise State, South Alabama, American = just fill the spaces. Finally, Tennessee, at least played to beat Roy. The Dean called... "Roy, I will send u back 2 nowhere land (Kansas)".

The Midwest. Andy Katz says "it will be a huge mistake to overlook cool, confident, competent MAC's champion". "Portland St. played its best game ever, but Kansas, playing blindfolded, still managed 2 beat 'em by so many buckets that the scoreboard broke down. UNLV beat the FANTASTIC Kent-St., super-team-2-be-a huge surprise 'cause it rocks & 'cause somebody please beat the Kansas rednecks. Clemson beat Villanova; Vanderbilt blinded by its Belgium Vander-xx heritage lost huge time 2 Siena. USC is solidary with OJ's fall & lost 2 Kansas-St.: the 1-man team; Fullerton & UMBC: who are these? Davidson? Gonzaga beat Georgetown (sorry, George is leaving office soon); LasVegas lost 2 Kansas. Kansas St. 1-man had a fight with his Chinese made shoes maker & said goodbye. Gonzaga, had nothing 2 conquer when playing Kansas.

The South. "Yeah, Texas this & that, Memphis has Elvis. Sorry Texas, MQ beat u . KY needs KU 2 send another Rupp urgently; Stanford brags about beating the Cornell varsity team; Miami: the nun's don't play sports. Oregon beat Mississippi river; Temple beat overrated Michigan St; Pittsburg defeated the dentist. Memphis cruised over Tx Arlington whatever & later over the Olympic team of the Beijing ducks. Memphis scandalized the church and beat them badly; Marquette vs Memphis? Elvis entered the room and everybody looked at his ghost. In the meantime Memphis scored like crazy and won. The most interesting thing of this region: Elvis impersonator appearance.

The West. The Region made for UCLA to win but Duke forces organizers to toss a coin to decide region winner and wins!. "Yes almighty UCLA, amazing Duke, magnificent ACC. John Wooden, PAC10. After tossing the coin, it was agreed that this year Duke would advance 2 the Final 4. Miss Valley State? Which Valley? Miss Valley intramural team lost by triple figures. BYU lost 2 Texas A&M 'cause the last 1 has an "A" in it's name which goes before the letter "B". Drake, Western KY, Conn & SD? All of 'em withdrew from playing basketball this year, so their made-in-China uniforms didn't arrive on time for the tourney (they were disqualified)!.Purdue & Baylor, wow. Xavier & Georgia,West VA, Arizona & Belmont...what a joke this was. blah blah blah. Duke beat Xavier & UCLA beat Drake. Just as planned and on schedule".Sorry, Lunardi, KU can't succumb to UCLA's incredible balance.

Final Game: Kansas at Memphis.
No more tricks for Memphis. They knew about the super powers of Jayhawk, the hero. This was a one-on-one game. The moment of truth: Kansas: 456, Memphis : 10. Kansas wins!

Anyways, here is to the Jayhawks! Go get 'em 'hawks, Rock Chalk Jayhawks, Rock Chalk KU!

Note: If Kansas loses, I will remove this blog immediately. Okay, Okay, I exaggerated on everything here, but... I still hope Kansas wins. I probably pick UCLA or UNC to win it all, because Kansas has me used to never win.
