Yup. I'm running late on filling out and revealing my bracket. Actually, very late in comparison to years past. Nonetheless, better late than never! And really, because of my awe for this year's Kentucky team, it really doesn't matter.
I've seen three Kentucky games this year (though their opening obliteration game against Hampton shouldn't count, but furthered my opinion) and I have been thoroughly impressed. Not because of their overwhelming undefeated record, though that is the result, but because...well...they're just so good! So damn big!
I'm very sure opposing players are telling their coaches mid-game against Kentucky that very line from Ivory Christian in Friday Night Lights...
"They're fast, they're big, they're dirty...plus they're fast!"
Because of that dominance, I am going with Kentucky over the field. Seriously, for the first time ever, I really feel there is no need in wasting time in filling out a bracket full of chalk picks. Until someone beats this squad, it's hard for me to care about anything else.
And yes, I'll be watching the tournament closely to see who I'd like my New York Knicks to select with their upcoming, brand-spankin'-new first round pick. Hooray tanking season!!
With all of that stated, below is the official Dome Pondering March Madness bracket. I'm sure you'll quickly notice the theme and trend in this year's selections.
