Your South Region?

What in the world are yal doing with this region? I honestly don't have a clue what to do with this region. This seems like the most wide-open region in the tournament IMO for so many reasons.
I don't know why, but I never really trust Kansas come tourney time. I also think UNC is an awful matchup for Kansas once they've gone to the 4 guard lineup. Kansas' guards are pretty meh, and if UNC played like they did in the ACC tourney that will be an awesome second round match.
Georgetown has Otto Porter who outside of Burke is probably the top player in the region who can absolutely put a team on his back and beat anyone. At the same time they have as many WTF games as anyone, and JT3's teams have f'ed me in the past.
Then we got Florida who no one really has a clue about. The SEC is hot garbage this year, and outside of being pretty stifling on defense and having a good backcourt I don't believe in much about Florida.
Then we got Michigan who when hot is better than anyone in this region (or maybe the whole tournament), but they have struggled late. They also have to play arguably one of the toughest matchups in the first round in SDSU. Remember the name Nate Wolters. The matchup of Wolters and Burke will be awwwwesome!
And we haven't even talked about teams like VCU or Minnesota. What do yal think? Someone gimme some direction here cause I got no clue right now.

Florida - if they can figure out how to play a game for 40 minutes instead of 35.

Eh, Florida's defense didn't look so savage out of conference. No one in the SEC can score. Is Florida just a product of shite competition?
Must be a weird feeling for SEC fans for the SOS shoe to be on the other foot hahaha.

UF struggles against a good defensive team that can slow them down like Gtown.

I like how you said Florida hadn't played anybody like Georgetown, but then acknowledge knowing that Florida played a half against Georgetown.
