your final four teams?

[$howtime24]

march madness is almost here! who are your final four teams also your upset teams?

[$howtime24]

i would have to go with syracuse, kansas, kentucky, and villanova. also could see kansas state or wvu in there. i think pitt could go very far they have a good team. could also see a team like ohio state or ok st. upsetting somebody.

[pbuck]

My Final Four IMO right now is Kansas,Kentucky,Michigan State & Duke. Cinderella is Butler to potentially get to the Final Four & if the get in Old Dominion to win a game or two IMO.

[LoganElm_grad09]

Ohio State can play with anybody on a good night when turner is hot, but I don't think they're a Final Four caliber team. Too streaky.

I'll take Kansas, Syracuse, Duke, and Kentucky for the Final Four.

I think Butler will have the best Mid-major tourney year, though with the right draw Northern Iowa could make a run.

I think Purdue will get a 2 seed at worst, but Michigan State gave up 44(?) points to Purdue without Hummel. They are vunerable w/o Hummel. Michigan State is a good team, but I don't see them beating many "elite" teams.

As for a particular matchup, I'll wait for brackets to show an "upset".

syracuse,texas,kentucky,kansas
yea i know texas has been struggling but when they play to what their capable of they are a top 5 team, duke i think will get upset in the 2nd round or sweet 16,wait until they play a team with a skilled guard and big man.kansas state is a team that could be there and butler is the mid major program along with new mexico and siena that could make a run

[$howtime24]

with hummel out for purdue i think they will be out early

[The_Legend_of_Northwest]

Looking at Joe Lunardi's Bracket projection, Picks right now:
Syracuse (over Kansas State)
Kansas (over Pitt)
Ohio State (over Kentucky)
WVU (over Duke)

[dazed&confused]

Kansas
Syracuse
WVU
Ohio State

[Hoggy]

Syracuse Region - Kentucky
Salt Lake City Region - Syracuse
Houston Region - Ohio State (My Rose Colored Glasses On)
St. Louis Region - New Mexico (Shocker and Long Shot Pick)

[3morethan2]

there isnt really a team that you could see dominating the tournament, last year unc just went through everybody i think anyone could win it

[$howtime24]

new mexico doesnt have the strength of schedule for a 1 seed. i see them getting a 4 seed, maybe 3 as the highest. i also think osu only shot at a 1 seed is to win the big ten tourny. and im sure kansas will get the 1 seed over wvu unless wvu makes a big finish in the big ten tourny.

[SGHS RBEBELS15]

#1's Syracuse, Kentucky, Duke, Kansas State
Surprise Team: Xavier

[theassassin]

are we talking about #1 seeds or final four teams?

my picks for 1 seeds now would be
syracuse
kansas
kentucky
???? duke????

i think the tournament is as wide open as i can remember ever being.....
possible final four teams

my tpo two picks would be
syracuse
kansas

other possibilities that could make it with the right matchups
kentucky... youth and inexperience
duke... i'm not sold on them
ohio st... depth is a question
villanova... strong guard play
wvu... suspect guard play, streaky shooting and ft shooting
kansas state... i dont know much about them but they do have some good wins
purdue.... hummel out
new mexico.... could they be this years george mason. i dont know much about htem either
mich st... seem to play well in the tournament

[$howtime24]

well duke or ksu is not going to get a 1 seed now. could be osu or michigan st.

[west siders]

i would have to wait until the bracket comes out. It's all about the matchups.

[theassassin]

well duke or ksu is not going to get a 1 seed now. could be osu or michigan st.

not so fast... lunardi has kstate with a 1 seed even though they lost to ku this week.
still alot of basketball to be played between now and selection sunday though.
