Can't disagree with any of this. It's quite clear WCA is correct.

I only know 1 thing for sure. Nova is fricking good. If their season averages hold true, they should run through this tourney. I honestly thought Bama matched up well because of the length and athleticism they have on defense, but we all saw how that went...

7. Clemson

Eh, we'll see. I just don't think Kansas is elite this year. I think this is the closest to a down year we've seen from Kansas in a while, and they're still a top 10 team so I don't think it's some huge slight.

Texas Tech was awesome all year when Evans was healthy. Kentucky always has as much pure talent as anyone. Texas A&M's baseline is super tough, and I'm a Clemson homer so fvck it .

Kentucky vs Gonzaga
Purdue vs Duke

Championship is Duke over Gonzaga

I saw an interesting comment on ESPN about a month ago regarding the potential national champion. No team has won the NCAA Tournament with a Kenpom defensive rank higher than 18 and only 1 team has had an offensive rank outside of the top 20 (2014 UCONN). So who are the teams that met both criteria?

Duke- #3 offense, #8 defense
Gonzaga- #12 offense, #14 defense
Michigan State- #13 offense, #11 defense

Villanova barely misses the cutoff (#1 offense and 19 defense) so they wouldn't be an outlier if they manage to win it all. So I would say three of the teams that I just listed (Villanova, Duke, Gonzaga) would be three of my Final Four teams since they are all in different regions. And the fourth team is pretty obvious. It's Kentucky. They have a very favorable draw to say the least.

Final Four Teams

South- Kentucky
West- Gonzaga
East- Villanova
Midwest- Duke

No need to do a new bracket. ..I have Duke, Nova Kansas and Kentucky in the Final 4!
