Obama picks Indiana

[El Supremo]

President Barack Obama is favoring the Big Ten in this year's NCAA tournament, ultimately selecting Indiana to win it all.

The president predicted that Louisville, Indiana, Ohio State and Florida will reach the Final Four and that Louisville and Indiana would meet in the title game.

"I'm going with Louisville. I know it's not a surprise pick," he said on a tape shown on "SportsCenter" Wednesday. "And I'm going with Indiana. These are the two best teams right now, and for the championship I'm going back to the Big Ten. I think this is Indiana's year."

He admitted his picks last year were not that good but said he will do better in his second term.

4. I'm laughing right now at your post

I thought you were complaining about the President's entire Elite 8 picks as PUKE. You meant Duke and now this post is so much funnier to me.

5. Obama is on the Belmont bandwagon

I just don't see it and I hate Arizona. I actually don't think Arizona falls until Ohio State.

I also have Indiana vs Marquette in the elite 8 in all my brackets except for 1.

6. Five Big Ten teams in the Sweet Sixteen?

Hey, I'm a current Wisconsinite and a life-long Midwesterner, but I'm not that much of a homer. Especially when you throw in Marquette and St Louis.
