Gut feeling is Duke-UNC-Villanova-Kentucky F4. I always expect the worst possible result.

Chicken, thank you sir.

Great basketball minds, who has the best guards?

Who is the oldest team, hence most mature, I’m saying Michigan.

Arkansas has Acuff.

Wisconsin has really good guards. That second round matchup may be one of the best round of 32 games.

Alabama with Philon/Wrightsell/Hollaway will have a great matchup with the Texas Tech guards in the round of 32. The Red Raiders lost their best big in February.

I feel like Akron is being overlooked. They can easily beat Texas Tech and make a little run. Same thing with USF.

A lot of people have USF winning apparently, and to a lesser extent same with Akron. I agree. I’m not overlooking Hofstra either. I have them all upsetting in my bracket
