Sweet 16 and Elite 8 record: 8-4

Yes, Bama G, Brownie and Derrick, I missed my USC-Gonzaga prediction badly, but did get the UCLA upset pick over Michigan.

Jim, “Goodbye Friends,” Grant, Raft, Trace, both games

Baylor by 5

No. 2 seed Houston out of the Midwest is a really good basketball team, but this Baylor team is superb. I have to take the Baylor backcourt of Jared Butler, MaCio Teague and Davion Mitchell to lead them to a hard fought victory and a spot in the national championship game Monday Night.

Baylor 65, Houston 59

Game 2

No.11 UCLA, East, (22-9) vs. No,1 Gonzaga, West (30-0)

7:34 PM CT

Zags by 14

UCLA has been terrific in coming in as an 11th seed and winning 5 games to get to this point. But Drew Timme and Gonzaga are on a mission. This might be like a 2 on 2 matchup featuring Kawhi Leonard and Kevin Durant vs. Jamie and Flo.

Gonzaga 84, UCLA 65
