Default NCAA Hoops Pools

So, I'm sure many of us are getting into several NCAA Tournament Pools... anyone have any strong feelings about some darkhorse picks or some potential upsets??

I've only seen/read about people picking chalk. It's quite lame.

Someone went out on a limb and picked #5 Purdue as a team that could make a run. Whoopty freaking do.

I've seen some talk of Mizzou over Memphis which would probably be a pretty big upset. Maybe WVU over Michigan St. or Syracuse having some ridiculous run past Oklahoma

-----------------
I'm no expert, but these are the ones I'm looking at...
Siena over OSU
Arizona over Utah
USC over BC
Maryland over California
Tennessee over OSU
Butler over LSU
W Kentucky over Illinois

Apparently, I don't like the Big 10 too much.

After the first round...
WVU over Kansas
Marquette over Missouri (Sorry JD...)
Purdue over Washington
'Nova over Duke

Sadly, my later rounds are filled with 1/2s and one 1/3 matchup which is ultra-lame, but I really don't see how that can be avoided unless teams that made great runs in their conference championships can keep it up for 3 weeks. I always seem to end up with 1/4 and 2/3 games which is stupid, but meh.

I'm tempted to pick W Kentucky over Gonzaga just because I hate Gonzaga for constantly screwing up my brackets after their one silly run a few years ago.
