Well, you gotta figure, based on why the tournament is so popular, that a whole lotta games will come down to buzzer-beaters or OT. Picking the winners of these games is really where the challenge lies. Personally, if I think a game has a chance to go to OT, I pick the favorite. This is because the underdog is thinking, damn, so close to the upset, while the favorite is thinking, damn, we just dodged a bullet, now let's show them who really is the boss. For buzzer-beaters, I choose the underdog. Seems to work for me, though of course I don't rule out coincidence. - Jeff
