Who do y'all think would win this match up?

Creighton.
But Memphis is going to lose to St. Mary's.

I like Creighton. I think they could make a run, but could also lose first round
Both teams don't like to play defense and score.

Midwest and the South Brackets are insane.

How about Duke over Middle Tennessee St.

No way Michigan St. losses in Auburn Hills

Michigan plays there as well. A bit odd, no?

I don't think Creighton gets past Duke.

I dont think Duke can stop McDermott
so if Creighton dictates the pace, which they are good at, and duke doesnt shoot lights out then creighton can beat them for sure

They may not make it past MTSU or STM, but undisciplined is not them.
FYI. I have them losing to MSU.
ETA: To clarify. Most of the time when people say "undisciplined" they are really referring to thuggish behavior. This is what I'm disagreeing with. If you mean otherwise. Then ignore this post.

I could see Memphis getting bounced in the first round but Chris Crawford can take over a game on the offensive end. Great asset to have come tourney time.

Not sure why you don't think Duke can stop Mcdermott.. they have they only allow 29% opp. 3pt % (9th in country) only allowing, on average, 3 three's a game... That's how Creighton beats you, if they can't shoot 3's they lose.
ETA: in Creighton's last 5 losses McDermott is 6-24 from three..

Typical Memphis team though. Can't shoot FTs. 66 percent and 262 in the nation

Mcdermott doesnt just jack up 3's all game???
who's gonna guard him? kelly? no
Creighton wins by having an uptempo non stop pace scoring a bunch and making teams play their game. Duke could say hey we will run with you... duke lives and dies with the jumper. if they are hitting they probably win but i've seen them get cold plenty of times
he shot less than 5 a game and shot 25%
25% from three is not bad at all.

Until pastner proves it dont bet on Memphis. I'm a Memphis fan too.

Except they're 19-1 with Kelly in the lineup. I dislike Duke as a fan but that doesn't blind me from the numbers.
And of course 25% isn't terrible but those are in losses.. in wins his % is incredibly higher.. I'm just saying there is a correlation, and Duke's D could frustrate him.
