Post your upset picks here. Cinderella stories or just first couple round upsets.

Right now, these are the possible upsets I could see:

12 Oregon over 5 Oklahoma St.
13 La Salle/Boise St. over 4 Kansas St.
13 South Dakota St. over 4 Michigan
11 Minnesota over UCLA (maybe not a huge upset, plus I'm biased)
14 N'western St. over 3 Florida
10 Oklahoma over 7 San Diego St.
 

I only have 4 lower seeds advancing.
# 9 Missouri over CSU - I think Missouri will get a huge game from Pressey and Bowers. Oriachi contains Iverson.
#10 Iowa State over Notre Dame - I'm not impressed with Notre Dame and I really like the ISU chemistry.
#10 Colorado over Illinois - I haven't been impressed with the Illini of late and think Colorado will be more physical.
#11 Minnesota over UCLA - Adams is a huge blow but most importantly, I don't think UCLA will be disciplined enough to keep the game low scoring. They like to play up-tempo and that will get the Gophers going.
 

In the 1st round I have these upsets
#9 Mizzou over #8 Colorado State
#10 Iowa State over #7 Notre Dame
#14 Davidson over #3 Marquette
#11 Minnesota over #6 UCLA

In the 2nd round I think Roy Williams team will knock out his former team early #8 North Carolina over #1 Kansas.
 

Here are the upset bids I could see:
#12 Oregon over Oklahoma State: Oregon underseeded and playing on the west coast
#11 Middle Tennessee State or St. Mary's over #6 Memphis: Conference USA is garbage...Dellavedova from St. Mary's can single handily take a game over
#9 Wichita State over #8 Pitt: Pitt is brutal at the offensive end
#11 Belmont over #6 Arizona: Belmont one of the most efficient teams in the country and Arizona has self imploded
#10 Iowa State over #7 Notre Dame: Just glad I will not have to see those awful Green Highlighter uniforms
#10 Colorado over #7 Illini: So Brandon Paul goes so do the Illini
#11 Bucknell over #6 Butler: Butler has underachieved and can't score to save their lives
#9 Temple over #8 NC State: NC State one of the most underachieving teams in the country
