LSU
Why they will: This is one of the most talented teams in America, and its road win over Kentucky and its home win against Tennessee in Baton Rouge last month proved as much for Will Wade's group. The Tigers are also one of America's top offensive rebounding teams, which means Naz Reid, Tremont Waters & Co. could gobble up second-chance opportunities on their way to the Final Four.
Why they won't: This LSU squad has surrendered 80 points or more to Florida, Arkansas and Oklahoma State, all middle-of-the-pack offensive teams in their respective leagues. Their SEC opponents have made 52.2 percent of their shots inside the arc, a daunting mark for a squad with national title ambitions.
