Sweet Sweet Sixteen

March is without a doubt the best sporting month of the year. Nothing even comes close. Each year there are new upsets, new Cinderella stories and new players to watch.
Here are 16 things to watch for in the sweet sixteen.

16. At least one team with a 10 seed or higher will make it to the elite eight, will it be VCU, FSU, Marquette, or Richmond?

15. Could the Southwest region have two double digit seeds in the elite eight?

14. Are the Aztecs the real deal?

13. Chandler Parsons, Derrick Williams and Jordan Taylor; they may not be named Jimmer, Kemba or Jared but they deserved to be watched.

12. Is the Big East even going to represent in the Elite Eight? 

11. Buzzer beaters. 

10. How far will Butler go? What are the chances of a rematch?

9. Charles Barkley. NOT! 

8. Maybe next week the guest commentator will be Steve Lavin or Jamie Dixion.

7. Will Kyrie make a national championship impact for the Dukies?

6. The Morris Twins. Sullinger. Kemba. Nolan Smith. And Kenall Marshall.

5. Will Coach K surpass Bob Knight for 903? Maybe even 904 and a repeat. 

4. One word: Jimmer.

3. The 2011 Cinderella.

2. My sweet sixteen game to watch: Duke and Arizona.

1. Bracket-busting UPSETS!
