Pretty good, but my picks vary a little:

ACC - North Carolina
Big Twelve - Iowa State
Big East - Notre Dame
Big Ten - Michigan State
Pac Ten - Stanford
SEC - Kentucky

UNC is no lock for the ACC just because they beat Duke. They have a rematch soon, and maybe again in the tourney. But there are a lot of solid teams in the ACC behind those two. Even Virginia, Wake, Maryland, and yes, NC State can beat anyone on any given night. It's so competitive.

Like the pick of Illinois over MSU in the B10. I think MSU's freshmen have come back to earth after a strong start. The realities of playing in a top conference night in and night out are starting to catch up to them.

Tennessee strikes me as a soft squad. I don't see how they can win the SEC.

after the Tennesse vs. Ole Miss game, I don't think Tenn. can win the SEC. I think either Mississppi or Kentucky will win the SEC.

Hold on a second. What about Kentucky? We've already beat Florida this year and I think we can beat them again.

Aren't you forgetting Stanford? I don't see UCLA beating them AGAIN.

Kentucky if they play better then they did yesterday against Arkansas should be the winner in the SEC...

Saying Tennessee would be..that is a joke...they are not even in the top 25 this week!

I agree with you. Especially after Illinois' loss to Ohio St. last Thursday.

Do you guys think that there will be much of a difference form the conference champion and who wins the conference tournament?

I think OSU has a chance at the Big Ten tournament. They've won like 6 or 7 straight conference and have proven to me that they can be successful.

For the ACC, I think anyone can win it. I like Virginia, they've been playing very well lately and have taken out Duke and UNC.

I don't think anyone has any idea who will win the Big East tourney. I think any team in that conference could win it.

For the Big 12, I think it's between Kansas, Iowa St, and Texas. Before Texas murdured Iowa St, I probably would have not mentioned them.

In the SEC, I think Kentucky will win, they have had an impressive second half of the season and could possibly pull this off as well.
