What team are you cheering for the most in each region? I am ranking mine from 1 to 4 (1 is the one I most want to see advance, 4 is the least).

East Region
1. South Carolina
2. Baylor
3. Wisconsin
4. Florida

West Region
1. Zona
2. Xavier
3. Zags
4. WVirginia

Mwest
1. Michigan
2. Oregon
3. Purdue
4. Kansas

South
1. Butler
2. Kentucky
3. UNC
4. UCLA

The south was the hardest for me to rank. Clearly I want Butler to come out of that, but after that, how do you rate which of the three programs you dislike the most? Well, I am sick of L. Ball so if they just lose to Kentucky, we can stop hearing about that. I would rather see Kentucky in the final 4 than UNC this year because it would be funny to see no ACC teams in the final four. Otherwise, I want to see a pair of underdogs in Michigan and SCarolina join Butler and I have never had anything against Zona. That would be a great final four IMO. Zona and Xavier are neck and neck, but some of my family did go to Zona, so gave them the nod.

I'm not too into it, for obvious reasons, but, I like the excitement of South Carolina. After them Its hard. On the one hand, I don't want Gonzaga or Butler elevated more then necessary, but on the other I find myself I end pulling for our non-P5 Brethren

Kansas of course. Gonzaga, South Carolina and Butler. The South region is the real problem, dislike 3 of those teams.

Wiscy, Zags, Purdue, Butler.

WVU wouldn't be bad. Wiscy, Zags. and Butler have been so close so many times, and I'd like to see them have a shot over UK, KU, UNC, UCLA, Zona, etc.

Anybody but UK. I'd take another UNC win, or Kansas, or UCLA, or anyone else in this field over UK.

I'll be pulling hard for Butler and UCLA in the South.

I'll be pulling hard for Purdue/Michigan in the Midwest, and Wisconin/South Carolina in the East.

And after that, if those 4 teams (Kansas/UNC/UK/Florida), anyone can win and I'd be happy.

Butler, Michigan, Wisconsin and Xavier. Never wanna see Kansas, UCLA, Kentucky or UNC win. Arizona, whatever, but no thanks and Gonzaga I'm tired of the hype every year.

The fact that UNC's program hasn't gotten a single penalty yet for what they got away with is disgusting. And Calipari is equally appalling.

So as long as UNC and UK don't end up in the final 4 or win it all, I'm good.

Michigan would be a cool story.

No UNC, no UK, no UCLA, no KU, no Florida.

The rest I can live with. Especially Xavier, Butler, Gonzaga, maybe WVU.

I wouldn't mind seeing Huggy win a title, he would probably retire right after.

Gonzaga, would love to see Few make his first Finals. Great guy great coach

UCLA, Ball is the real deal. Would just make viewing more entertaining with his Dad's big mouth on the line

Wisconsin, love their team still can't believe they're an 8 seed. Have a lot of respect for Nigel Hayes, Koenig, and their big guy (forget his name)

Michigan, again love their team with Wagner and Walton Jr. Funny to think they're considered a cinderella at this point

Zags, Butler, Purdue, Wisconsin
what a gross final four that would be, only grosser would be subbing Zags for Xavier.

I am rooting for Baylor, Zags, UCLA, and KU cause thats my bracket

Would love to see Butler break through and win it. That program has earned it.
I'm not sure I could stomach losing 2 consecutive national championship games. Even as an underdog.

Any final four that doesn't include Kentucky. Sadly, that now means UNC, which isn't much better

Well, if South Carolina wins, then I'm okay with 3/4 of the schools winning. That's a good percentage. If Florida? I'll be pulling for a Gonzaga/Oregon final.

I hope the UNC/Kentcuky winner loses to Oregon. If that happens, I don't care who wins but I would like to see Gonzaga win as it would mean 3 of the 4 last national champs didn't come from a P5 league.
