Well I clearly have no idea what I am talking about. If you wagered any money at all based upon the predictions that I gave when the NCAA March Madness tournament began a few weeks ago, well then you're an idiot, because I am not a professional sports journalist and I don't think I watched a single game of college basketball last season until the tournament began (with the exception of one or two Syracuse games).
For those who forgot or are too lazy to scroll back through the archives, here was my Final Four prediction from March 16, 2015:
Final Four
Midwest Champion 1 Kentucky def. West Champion 1 Wisconsin
East Champion 5 University of Northern Iowa def. South Champion 2 Gonzaga
National Championship Game
1 Kentucky def. 5 University of Northern Iowa
None of this was right. I had the correct match-up in one game, but I did not pick a single winner here. Wisconsin shocked the nation and handed Kentucky their first loss of the year, which knocked off my champion. Gonzaga was defeated by the eventual tournament winner, Duke University, who I did not predict would make it to the Final Four. University of Northern Iowa was a foolish choice, but I like their uniforms and I figured that there was going to be some strange Cinderella story, however, that team was Michigan State, and UNI was bounced from the tournament in the Round of 32, so my bracket was essentially decimated after only two days of play.
All in all, I had no idea what I was doing with my bracket, and it shows...
