Big 12 NCAA Bracket Breakdown

The Oklahoma State Cowboys

Another team that got screwed by the Selection Sunday committee. The Oklahoma State Cowboys have been put in a tough first round matchup with the Michigan Wolverines.

Oklahoma State Cowboys. 10. With a matchup against a Michigan team that is on fire, the Oklahoma State Cowboys really lucked out. If they get past the Wolverines they have a lot of potential. Their maximum should be getting to the Sweet Sixteen. Their minimum should be losing in the First Round.. Midwest Region.

If the Cowboys get past Michigan then I could see them matching up fairly well against Louisville. Too bad I don’t see them getting past Michigan.

First Round

After a remarkable come from behind season with senior Phil Forte and sophomore Jawun Evans, the Cowboys should celebrate a great regular season. In the first round, the red hot Michigan Wolverines stand in their way and I do not see Michigan budging much.

Prediction: Oklahoma State 75, Michigan 80
