Podcast: 2019 NCAA Basketball Tournament Preview with Chris in Syracuse (03-19-19)

Chris in Syracuse joins Dave for this year's NCAA Tournament Preview.  We cover all the brackets, and all the potential upsets in this year's big dance.  We also look at how top-heavy the field is this year.  Chris and Dave break down why there's a large dropoff in talent between the 1 or 2 seeds and the rest of the field.   Can there be big upsets this year?  Will there be a repeat of the 16 upsetting a 1 miracle last season?   Could there still be a dark horse in the mix?   We also look at the big favorites:  Duke, with Zion Williamson back, should be the prohibitive favorite to win the title.   North Carolina, a very talented team, and one team that consistently can match up well with Duke.  Gonzaga, said by many experts to be the number one overall team in the nation, but a team with a disappointing tournament history recently.   Tennessee, one of the hottest teams to start the year, now having stumbled lately and entering the dance as a 2 seed.  Michigan, a team for which the jury's still out.   Virginia, always a regular season giant, but this year, trying to avenge the upset loss to 16-seeded UMBC.  It's an interesting field, albeit not as deep as usual, and we'll offer all our predictions for March Madness.
