The Patriots are the luckiest 11 seed in history. A Sweet 16 game against another upset special (Wichita State). Then, an Elite 8 game against a team that spent the Tournament playing down to, then escaping, their competition (UConn). UConn finally ran out of back-breaking threes, and the last mid-major you expected to see in the Final Four is in the Final Four. (OK, maybe not the last mid-major. *couth*Winthrop*cough*.)

And is it too late to change my pick for the final? Villanova was my first choice, but LSU looks so strong right now. Glen Davis and Tyrus Thomas are the best frontcourt in the Final Four.

Update: I guess it's my turn on the karma-go-round. During the first round, I was jagging Mantorp for picking Syracuse to win the Atlanta region. Today, I see that only bracket still has points in play. Guess who's? If UCLA beats LSU, Mantorp leapfrogs into first place.
