I'm Calling 5 Big Upsets in the First Round of the NCAA National Championship

'TIS THE SEASON FOR MARCH MADNESS!!!!!!!! Basketball is a sport I am very fond of, and March Madness just puts the cherry on top of my joy.

With that being said, brackets are a must - and I've already filled mine out. I'm expecting 4 big upsets to happen. Don't get mad if I hate on your team.

1. Vermont vs FSU

I'm predicting Vermont is going to win this little showdown. Vermont is a very underrated team who put up quite a fight against Kansas earlier this season.

2. St. John's vs Buffalo

Presuming St. John's beats Arizona State, I have no doubt that they will beat Buffalo in the first round.

3. St. Mary's vs Villanova

St. Mary's is going to beat Villanova. They've proven to put up a fight over this season, and I'm confident they aren't going anywhere.

4. Ohio St. vs Iowa St.

This one is kind of iffy, but I really think Ohio St. will bring their A-game after Iowa St. lost to WVU. ISU had a good run in the Big 12 tournament, but I think their luck has run out.

5. Seton Hall vs Wofford

I'm genuinely confused where Wofford even came from this season... Considering they've been playing nobody teams just like our friends at Houston, it's no surprise they became ranked rarely losing. But they have no credit. They haven't won against a top 25 team like Seton Hall has.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
