Early Impressions

Wisconsin-Milwaukee is taking it to Alabama. No surprise there. Ed McCants is having a big first half. So too is Kennedy Winston. But the Tide star can't do it alone. Upset Likelihood: High.

Eastern Kentucky is keeping it close against Kentucky. Tubby looks pissed. Expect the 'Cats to run away from EKU early in the second half. Upset Likelihood: Low.

Niagara is finding ways to score against Oklahoma. Problem is, they're not finding ways to defend. The Sooners have been able to score at will against the Purple Eagles. Upset Likelihood: Low-Medium.

Pacific is outdoing a disappointing Pittsburgh team in Albuquerque. But the Panthers have too much talent not to keep it close in the second half. Upset Likelihood: Low-Medium.

Re: Early Impressions (none / 0)

But who do you consider the upset in the Pacific-Pitt game?

Good Question (none / 0)

Seed-wise, I have to go with Pacific. (This is how the post was written).

But logic-wise, Pittsburgh losing is an upset.
