2008 BracketBusters Analysis & Predictions
Even if there is only one game that
will likely feature two teams that are worthy of at-large bids, there are still
plenty of interesting match-ups and plenty of teams that we will see in March in
this edition of BracketBusters. The number one goal is exposure for the teams

more important than exposure is momentum. Grabbing a big win against a quality
team can do great things heading into the conference tournaments.
