OUR #MARCHMADNESS PREDICTIONS FOR THE 2024 NCAA TOURNAMENT #ncaatournament #menscbb #cbb #bracket #bracketpredictions #bracketchallenge
What is going on everybody we are here with some March Madness predictions heading into the tournament starting this weekend we have accurately predicted two of the past four championships on this very channel so with that being said you know our champion this year will be booted in the
First round let’s hop right into our predictions for the 2024 Bracket all right I guess we’ll start off in the east region what are we looking at over here with Yukon as the number one overall seed I love I want to say love them again like last year but they got two of the two other of the
Four final four teams last year in their region they’ve got some other other difficult matchups if they are trying to get all the way there in Auburn even San Diego State if they happen to meet in the sweet 16 and then North Northwestern boo Billy is I he’s one of my favorite
Players and he could single-handedly lead this team to an elite eight final four appearance so for now yukon’s going to take the first game obviously it’s STS and congratulations but it’s youon after that FAU Northwestern probably the best game in this opening game in this region besides Albert and Yale I love
Booy I’m just going to put it out there that’s the entire reason behind this pick just give me Northwestern San Diego State UAB UAB looked really good today but San Diego State is a much better team with a better Coach Andy Kennedy is doing a great job but s State G to take
That one um Auburn Yale another really entertaining game the other good game of this region Auburn is on a roll at the right time so they’re going to take this one they could be the biggest Challenger to Yukon this region but give me Auburn for the opening round against Yale BYU
And Duane I got a chance to watch Duane obviously today they just got hot I don’t think they’re actually that great of a team they’re not terrible but they’re not a great team so give me BYU they jumped up to the big 12 and played really well in their first year Morhead
State the the easiest pick in this entire region just give me Illinois there’s no no even reason to think about it and again towards the bottom Washington State great story I love Drake they that game against Indiana state was electric and worth worth every penny give me Drake Iowa State easy no
Reason to think about it they absolutely killed Houston heading back up to the top Yukon Northwestern will be probably the best game of the entire second round in my opinion know we have we have a long way to go but I love this one and give me Yukon they just boui could drive
Them all the way lead eight but yukon’s in their region so no uh no dice and then Auburn they’re hot they can shoot the lights out every win except for one this season has been a double digit win at home I know they’re not at home but I
Think they can translate that so give me Auburn into the the sweet 16 for a really juicy 1 14 match up in the sweet 16 uh heading back down to BYU Illinois Illinois looks pretty good today big 10 Champions but you’ve got to have some
Chaos and my chaos is going to be BYU just another underwhelming March for Brad Underwood then the Eli and then Drake Iowa State just this is the Iowa bowl the mo Iowa for Drake and Iowa State and ases Iowa State’s hot they look great they just suffocated Houston
Who’s got great defense so give me Iowa State running in a sweet 16 super underrated job B Fred hoyberg over there names moving back up Yukon Auburn I called Yukon last year and Auburn fits the exact profile of Yukon little UND seated at the four fourth rank kmom team
That’s the exact same thing that happened Yukon last year when they won the national title and I think history repeats itself here I think this is where Yukon gets knocked off and it’s easy like per do last year to say oh they’re good they’re 31 wins March
Madness for a reason give me Albert and then finally Iowa State I as I said earlier there are a few teams that aren’t one SE I fall in love with it’s Texas Tech and Iowa State then a couple others we’ll get to you later give me Iowa state for a really really great
Elite 8 matchup between Auburn and Iowa State and I gotta have Auburn go in the final four Bruce Pearl is GNA prove again why he’s one of the best coaches in the country okay our first ticket is punched in the final four Auburn winning the SEC Championship now looked great
Today iting them to uh Phoenix this year for the final four okay let’s move down to the west region North Carolina the number one seed what do we have here all right here we go North Carolina I like this uh Howard story here with uh Seth
Towns I think he’s on his eighth year college basketball we’re going North Carolina all right the Mississippi State Michigan State matchup Michigan State they underwhelmed all year you know they started off as like a top five team BAS off for turning a lot of guys from last
Year I’m going to go with Michigan State here I think Tom oo can get him one win in this tournament just cuz that’s what he does but Mississippi state’s kind of sneaky team they play good defense St Mary’s and Grand Canyon I think Grand Canyon’s like the most common upset pick
Almost every year everyone tries to go with them but St Mary’s if you look at the metrics since February they’re like a top 12 team in the country so to go to St Mary’s here Alabama and Charleston Alabama they play Zero defense they just love to let the other team
Score and Charleston they they uh shoot probably just as many threes as Alabama potentially even more I think Charleston will get some more to fall and we’re going to go with the upset here Clemson and New Mexico Clemson’s a good squad they got PJ Hall Baylor and
Colgate a lot of people like Colgate I think every year but we’re going to go with Baylor they play in the Big 12 battle testing dayon and Nevada this a good matchup here I think one of the better first round matchups you got donon Holmes great player for Dayton but
I like I like Nevada’s guards a lot to get this uh win here Arizona and Long Beach State Long Beach State great story coach gets fired somehow makes a run and now they’re in the tournament but it’s going to end here we’re going to go with Arizona over Long Beach State North
Carolina Michigan State tournament committees set this up they love to see this but uh Michigan State’s Run’s going to end here North Carolina with RJ Davis and Bott they’ve been there for a while they know the tournament and they’ll get the win St Mary’s in Charleston like I
Said earlier St Marys has been one of the best teams in the country over the past month so we’re going to go with St Mary’s to advance here all right here’s our first major upset of a double digit seed reaching the sweet 16 just I love
The way this New Mexico team is playing right now Jamal Mashburn and Jaylen house I just guard play huge in March and they got two two great ones love it Arizona Nevada this this is also another good one right here Nevada’s with some good guards but Arizona’s got Caleb love
Who’s you know volatile all right uh North Carolina and St Maries this is going to be a very good matchup St Mary’s they play discipline basketball good offense but I’m GNA continue on with North Carolina here I just Bott and RJ Davis even though they lost the ACC
Championship I think they’ll get it done here all right uh Arizona New Mexico I love this matchup I I’m Arizona’s bured me time and time again I’m gonna go back to the well and go with Arizona just because I I’d love to see Caleb BL play North Carolina in the elite eight Caleb
Love RJ Davis who comes out on top who’s the better guard one out of leave we’re going to go with the one that stayed we’re going to go with North Carolina to advance here so North Carolina and Auburn so far let’s turn our attention to the Midwest Purdue are one seed
Purdue had some trouble the last three years and most recently last year was Fairley Dickinson that got him in the first round uh let’s not play around with that we will go Zach gidi in round one then TCU Utah State I feel like these are two opposite teams really but
I think TCU just I think their speed is going to be a problem here I think they’re played in a a better conference in the Big 12 so I’m going to go with TCU now Gonzaga and MCN this is a very popular upset pick a lot of people like
The Wade Brigade here in the 12 spot I think they only lost three games the entire year now they didn’t really play anybody so that might factor into it but Gonzaga I mean if they can’t get it done with Drew Timmy Chad holgren Jaylen sugs
I just don’t know how you can trust the team they have this year when they’ve kind of been a little underwhelming all year so I’m gonna go with MCN to get this upset in round one will Wade obviously hunting for new position somewhere very soon I think he’s going
To end up so we’ll go with them in round one Kansas Sanford Sanford one of the best offensive teams I’ve seen I mean they shoot a lot of Threes Kansas if they were fully healthy I mean I think I’d clearly go with the j-hawks some question marks as we are early in the
Week so as it stands right now I think if Kansas can get healthy I’m going to go with them to win this game but obviously if Hunter Dickinson transfer from Michigan doesn’t play or the guard they are missing if neither of them can play I think sford definitely could pull
The upset here we’ll go to South Carolina Oregon Oregon winning the Pack 12 the last year of the Pack 12 upsetting Arizona South Carolina I think they were picked last to finish in the SEC coming into the season so yep everyone’s sleeping on them so I’ll
Continue to sleep on them I’ll go with the Pack 12 Champs in Oregon to win this game Craton Blue Jays they only run what six or seven guys which could be a problem if you get some guys in foul trouble but when you got caul brener Manning down the middle coming back from
That injury where he had to missed some time last season I think he’s just going to be too much so I’m going to go creating in this one these teams that make to play in the last four in usually they end up doing some damage Texas hasn’t really done anything this year to
Impress me so I’m going to go with the winner of Virginia Colorado State to get this win over Texas probably going to be Virginia if I had to guess and then uh Tennessee in the same region as Purdue two teams that are notorious for choking
This time of the year but we’re gonna go with them Tennessee let’s not play around with St Peters who uh coming off that magic run against Purdue very recently but okay back to Purdue against TCU now TCU I think they can speed up Purdue which is the way to beat them you
Have to run with them make Zack Ed run the floor now TCU I just don’t think their interior is going to be enough to handle all seven plus feet of Zack player of the year so I think they’re going to win this matchup even though they’ve struggled in March as of late
Okay next game I got m n versus Kansas this such a big question mark with Kansas we don’t know the hell situation but I do know I like will Wade former LSU Tiger head coach now coaching the mnes Cowboys I think they are so we’re going to Pony up with the Cowboys send
Them to the Sweet 16 and make it to the second weekend looking at Oregon and kraton I think kraton they got three guys that they rely on I think they’re just a better team overall so barring some unforeseen situation I think they’re going to roll through Oregon no
Problem and then down here with Tennessee they add the score that they’ve been looking for doton connect and getting zegler back he missed last March they still made it to the second weekend but I think he’s going to make a difference this year so I will go with
Tennessee to win that game so now we’re working with Purdue Zack EDI I think this is where uh I think we can call it for MCN they had a good run here we’re giving them but Zack Eed I mean no one’s been able to stop him all year I think
The Cowboys not going to be able to do it here so we’ll go with Purdue to advance and in this matchup right here I really like Craton Tennessee I’d be very interested to see ad do vers cul brener I think that would be a very enticing matchup two teams I don’t really aren’t
Very deep so it’s going to be a lot of the starting five and then they mix in a couple guys I’m going go with the Blue Jays just because we haven’t seen Tennessee put it together they lose in the SEC tournament pretty early a lot of
People predicted them to win it it’s so tough to to pick against Purdue and needy I mean but we just haven’t seen them do much in the tournament until I see it it’s just like in zag I mean until I see them do it it’s hard to pick
Them to predict any sort of success for this team so I guess we’re going to go Katon in the final four some excur team like we saw last year with FAU San Diego State I know i’ harped on a lot with Houston getting hammered by Iowa states
That I show they’re IM mortal but they do have very aggressive defense uh good guard play they are a little sketch with their interior shooting they’re mid-range shooting and they shoot less than 70% from the free throw line that will not matter against Longwood because let’s I thinking it’s literally
Longwinded so they’re giv me Houston and then Nebraska A&M I don’t know if it’s going to get into the recording but right at the very beginning I absolutely to mentioned how much I despise A&M and where they’re seated they’re way over seated they’re not that great complete
Frauds they had gotten any other matchup uh for Nebraska I would pick against Nebraska because they are truly this they’re good at home and that’s it but they’re going to be D&M here uh and get to the second round and it’s be a great season for because this is their best
Season probably ever um for Wisconsin and JMU the part of my take Bowl JMU is kind of was kind of Fool’s Gold they looked great at the beginning of the year they had some stumbles albeit against some good Sun Bel teams but they just Wisconsin looked got hot at the
Right time even though they lost today give me them they’re gonna they I like them as another potential second weekend Elite eight team uh the Wisconsin Badgers let’s just not I’m not even going spend time to mention it it’s Vermont they’re Duke going to win the Duke’s incredibly soft but that won’t
Matter this round just don’t have to overthink it uh Texas Tech NC State I know I’m wearing the shirt uh work for flag Department I love them but Texas Tech made me a lot of money this year so they they’re n State got boned in their matchup Kentucky going to take on
Oakland this is going to be the game of no defense both teams shoot the lights out but refuse to play defense but Kentucky has NBA talent and Oakland does not so give me give me the wild cats Florida is going to take on the winner of the playin game between Boise and
Colorado the Mountain West is the best non power five League by pretty substantial margin and that’s going to show itself here either team has a pretty good chance to take down Florida who just lost their best rebounder to a broken leg and got pretty convincingly hammered today in the SEC Chri game so
Give me the winner of Bo in Colorado State uh it’s to knockout Florida who’s coming in a little unhealthy Marquette Kentucky but but another just not not think about Tyler K is one of my favorite players in the in the game so they’re going to win that one uh Houston
Nebraska this is where what my take on Nebraska comes truly fruition I think Houston’s going to run them out the gym I don’t think it’s GNA be close uh so another easy one uh Wisconsin and Duke uh this is I believe a rematch of the National Championship in
2015 uh Duke is incredibly soft but it’s becoming the Duke that we no and love again being villains and I think they are they are I I don’t love them but I love where they got drawn into the tournament so they’re gonna they’re gonna beat Wisconsin and get to the
Second weekend uh after that Texas Tech and Kentucky Kentucky for every game that they go and dog walk Tennessee at the end of the year they then have a game against LSU where they just completely lay an egg so give me Texas Tech yeah they because they actually
Play defense in the Kentucky from here it’s yeah I I know I just said I love Tyler KCK but I I actually genuinely could see a case for Marquette uh especially if go is not as healthy as we think is with an oblique injury just completely pissing down their leg so
Give me the winner of Boise Colorado uh to go and run to the second weekend I think Marquette is of all the one and two seats they’re the team that’s going to be the most disappointing um after that going again this is where Duke’s run ends uh just no reason to think
About it Houston they looked moral I think they’re good enough to get to the final four and they’re going to absolutely take down Duke and they’re going to smother them um Texas Tech another one I love them I’m fully admitting I love them I could get make
It look bad egg my face but they’re absolutely taking down uh the upstar tene between Boise State and Colorado and then finally I think they’ve played a couple times and Houston has been the better team has being the key word I mentioned earlier they shoot less than
70% from free throw uh and they have pretty shaky uh mid-range shooting and I think that’s going to rear ugly head it’s going to be a game with a lot of fouls a lot of tough contested shots like it were the first couple of times
So give me Texas Tech give me them as a big final four run um to truly establish the new era Beyond Chris beard hey interesting matchups we have here in the final four Auburn North Carolina why what do we feel about that potential matchup if it were to come to
Fruition this would be a very good matchup I mean as Ryan was saying earlier the metrics love Auburn they’re kind of similar to Yukon from last year they had a little low but later on in the season they started to pick it up away from home they haven’t been that
Great but I mean that’s a lot of teams in college basketball this year the acc’s been kind of down so I don’t know if they have enough top tier competition in the ACC to kind of know what Auburn’s like I’m going to go with auburn here just with the metrics Tech and Katon
Texas Tech has all the no one’s talking about them potentially getting to the final four into a national championship and I’m just going to stick with what I’ve been saying early I love them so I love them to get to the national title and I will laugh when this immediately
Falls my face when they lose in the second round it’s gonna be the team I’m way too in love with that I’m going to go way too far with in their AB who do we see winning the big game and cutting down the Nets all right I can’t remember I
Think this was the year we should have got this matchup previously but Virginia kind of got bailed out with a against alurn and then Virginia ended up playing Tech in the championship correct so Auburn gets the Revenge here then and I’d go with auburn over Tech but I
Really want to pick Auburn but I think as much as they are a good team that just happen to do most of their damage at home I think that Texas Tech really has the horses to win at all they’re a little unded they’re a little overlooked
In the rest of the quality team from the Big 12 like Iowa State Baylor Houston so on and so forth and usually usually it’s an Overlook there’s always an overlooked team that oh I can’t believe it they made the final four but they had the talent you just didn’t look at so give
Me Tex T all right that is going to wrap it up for our March manness predictions let me know in the comments what you think of these picks if you agree or disagree obviously everyone’s going to have different opinions let me know in the comments thank you guys for watching

SEC could see 3 final four teams with auburn Tennessee and kentucky
Mcneese cowboys?!
If you watched the previous two matchups between UH and Texas Tech there is no way you'd pick Tech lmao. UH is just better than them at every position. Big 12 title game has so many people fooled. UH basically conceded that game due to injuries and a fatigued short rotation playing 3 games in 3 days.
Arizone to Glendale. book it
uconn best team but too hard to repeat
