The bracket is up (see below). I believe we have a favorable match-up and we owe Stanford a good raping.

We open with Stanford who has a new coach (Jerod Haase) this season. Last season they went 15–15 (8–10) and they fired Dawkins. They lost their best player (Rosco Allen) this off season.

Winner of that game will play the winner of Indiana State v. Iowa State. I don't see how Indiana State wins that game but stranger things have happened.

Iowa State made the sweet 16 last year. They went 23-12 (10-8). They lost their best player Georges Niang and Abdel Nader, everyone knows those two. They also lost Jameel McKay (11 PPG and 9 RPG) as well. They still have Monte Morris.

The winner of that game will play the winner of Gonzaga/Quinnipiac v. Seton Hall/Florida.

Here are two early polls (which are horsechit):

Duke is No. 1 in the Ridiculously Early Preseason Top 25 (and one) - CBSSports.com
Duke Blue Devils, Kentucky Wildcats among college basketball's top 25 in 2016-2017

ESPN has Seton Hall #21 and Iowa State at #22 .
CBS has Gonzaga at #16 and Miami #21 .

Since those polls, the following have happened:

- Florida added Canyon Barry
- Seton Hall lost Isaiah Whitehead (for sure)
- Gonzaga added Jordan Matthews
