Last year, I wrote some predictions and tips before the NCAA Tournament, let’s see how I did:

Virginia is going to win it all. By no means am I 100% confident in this, but getting to tweet “WAHOO WAHOO” a bunch over the next few weeks seems pretty fun. Plus, they play the game the right way, and I think they finally get over the hump. WAHOO WAHOO. – Jim Boeheim performed some voodoo magic to speed Virginia up and make them self-destruct. He is now paying the price with a first round NIT game in Greensboro.

UNC will NOT make the Final Four. As far as analytics go, Nate Silver and his 538 algorithm LOVE the Tar Holes as they sit at a 44% chance to win their region. Ken Pomeroy’s rankings are a bit lower at 32.3% but are still the 3rd highest of any team. I’m off the UNC bandwagon. Roy Williams sucks. If at any point Marcus Paige goes cold, the Tar Holes are in trouble. You’ve been warned. – Nate Silver was right, I was wrong. He’s smart, I’m stupid. He’s good looking, I’m not attractive.

The Shockers will make a run. Fred Van Vleet ain’t going home in the round of 64 in his senior season. In fact, he’s going to knock off Miami once he’s done with Zona. And that white boy Baker? He has big shot written all over him. The Shockers are making it to the Sweet 16 at a minimum. – Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.

Dook sucks. No explanation needed. – True! This one will always be right.

A 16 seed is knocking off a 1 seed – and it’s going to be Florida Gulf Coast or Holy Cross. It’s time. We’ve waited long enough to see this happen. We are currently handing a loaded gun to President Donald Trump in about 11 months, so this really isn’t that crazy after all. Dunk City is back and pissed off that they had to roll over Fairleigh Dickinson in the First Four, and they aren’t finished yet. Holy Cross also has the lord on its side, a 1-3-1 that somehow baffles Division-I coaches, and some freshman magic. – Wasn’t even fucking close.

This is Buddy Hields’s time. Gotta love this dude. I said if Marcus Paige goes cold, UNC is in trouble. The same could be said for the Boomer Sooners and Buddy, but this guy is special. Buddy is going to go on a Shabazz Napier type run to the Final Four. – Hey this was actually logical! Made a nice run, Nova kept him in check and beat them by 500.
