Tomorrow is the start of the 2011 NCAA Tournament and I will post my picks for every game. The newly added "First Four" games will be featured on TruTV (for some reason). As following, these are my picks for the First Four games of the 2011 March Madness season.
12. UAB vs. 12. Clemson: I have Clemson winning this one by around ten points. The Tigers fared well in ACC play this season and defeated Boston College easily and fell apart late in a loss to UNC in the ACC Tournament. Final Score: CLEMSON 68 - UAB 59 (KenPom score: Clemson 61-58)
16 Seed Games: UT-San Antonio 64 - Alabama State 62
UNC-Asheville 73 - Arkansas-Little Rock 67
11. USC vs. 11. VCU: Both of these teams always seem to be a sleeper in the Tournament and I feel the winner of this game WILL go on to defeat the number 6 seed of Georgetown. USC should win this one but by a close margain. Final Score: USC 77 - VCU 75 (KenPom score: USC 68-63)
As these games tip off tomorrow and Wednesday, we could see the 12 seed and 11 seed game winners be a Cinderella squad that could go to the 3rd round or further.
