It’s been a long two years since I last made NCAA Tournament picks over at SBNation.com. So, while going through 2019’s post:
- I was pleased to remember that I picked both Murray State and UC Irvine to pull off first-round upsets.
- Annoyed that I didn’t go with Wofford over Seton Hall.
- Flat-out distressed to realize that I missed each and every Final Four team (Duke, Gonzaga, Tennessee, North Carolina).
That was the second straight year that I went 0-3 in Final Four games. Even though I correctly picked three of 2018’s Final Four (Kansas, Michigan, Villanova) my miss was Arizona, so my national championship game prediction of Wildcats over Jayhawks didn’t pan out.
