Who is your sleeper tourney team

Define "sleeper"?
I think Texas Tech is capable of winning the whole tournament, more so than UNC or Kentucky, but I don't know if that's a hot take or not.

UVA.
Think we'll go further than we did last year and we'll put some viewers to sleep.

Prayers sent in advance for the 16 seed you guys will face. Vegas couldn't set a line high enough.
Will be the only UVA NCAA game I don't watch. **** that kind of stress again. Hope we get more than one game this year so I can watch lol
I think Buffalo could win 3+ games in the tournament.
I don't trust them to make a run, but they're capable. 8 wins vs the top 25 and most were without Azubuike. Also beat Tenny with him being out two thirds of the game.
Without going in on a homer pick (Texas Tech), I think FSU can play with about anyone but they can’t go into a shell like they tend to do.
KSU just doesn’t screw up much and they’re a grinding team but it all depends on them staying healthy.
Utah State, UCF and Belmont intrigue me a bit as well.

Way to go out on a limb there
Gonna leave my LSU Homer out of this and say Houston. They are a really solid team that could make some noise. Texas Tech would be my other sleeper,
Sleepers are 6 and below
If you are a 3 or 4 seed you should be in the Sweet 16
6,7,8
9+
Have to see the bracket because some of these teams I mention might sneak up.
As of right now
I say Louisville, Wofford, Texas and Utah State

6,7,8
9+

Texas could beat any team in the bracket on a neutral court.
Think the same about Louisville.
Think Texas is actually a lot more stable than Louisville.
Absolute stunner that @SheriffBufordTJustice said Texas. Also like how he added 3 other teams to try and throw people off. Just say you’re making a homer pick and cut all the crap around it.
If Texas had no chance to make a deep run I would admit it.
If you ask me what 4 teams who probably will be 6 and below.
I would look for teams who could beat teams on the 1,2 and 3 line in major conferences
Then I would look at mid majors.
Rank them how you want. I stand by that one of these 4 teams could make an Elite 8 run
Texas
Louisville
Wofford
Utah State
If they were winning these games they wouldn't be a sleeper...
What 4 teams who will be most likely be on the 6 line and below do you think can make an Elite 8 run
You are failing to put out a list...
Definition of a sleeper is a team 6 or below.
Because majority of the games will be as underdogs.
Even a 5 seed should get to the Sweet 16 as a 4/5 is 50/50.
With Roach, they’re capable of beating a lot of teams. But I’d bet on them being one and done.
As of today, Lunardi has K-State a 6. I’d say they’d be the most capable of a run of any 6 or below. Maybe Louisville next.
As of now he has buffalo and Villanova as 6 or below. I’d take both over Texas.
Wofford would be my pick.
Of course I say that and will lose their first game because I picked them.

I would say Iowa but I'm not stupid.
Everybody and their brother is going to pick Wofford to advance so I'm not sure they'd still be a sleeper.
I think everyone should watch out for VCU again.....and as a Purdue fan, that is painful to type.

Nobody picking South Carolina? Thought they would be a shoe in for a 1 seed after all the ass kicking they did.
