Initial thoughts on the West Region:
Mississippi State or Michigan State getting North Carolina in the round of 32 could be dangerous, but will be in Charlotte. I like St. Mary's and think that they're a dangerous five, but Grand Canyon will be a very tough challenge for them. These were both teams that I liked to potentially make runs, and now they're playing each other. Don't know if there'll be fewer fans who travel to a game than Alabama and Charleston in Spokane. Hope New Mexico can upset Clemson and their insufferable fans. Like Baylor at the #3 think their fans will travel well to Memphis for an extra advantage. Arizona and Baylor meeting up in the Sweet 16 could be a fun one.
