I think KU is a very dangerous team this year. I know they have a history of early losses in the NCAAs, and this year is going to be difficult to predict of course.

That said, they've been playing through quite a bit of noise, much kind of due to their own mistakes maybe (Snoop, brawl) but the adversity caused by all that might make them a mentally tough team in March. Their big man Azubuike is a steady force and they are just a solid team that doesn't really have that OAD lottery pick type of player that may have caused a mild distraction in March to them in prior years.

They are relying on a SR/JR combo with solid supporting cast. I don't get too caught up in brackets for the Cards try to take one game @ a time but I think I'd prefer not being in their bracket.

I know nothing.

If UofL was to get to the Final Four, id love to beat Kansas and Baylor for the Title.

This year is so wide open. Know we seem to say that every year but honestly, this year it really is wide open.

Duke, UofL, Baylor, Maryland, Kansas, Gonzaga, San Diego State, FSU, UofK, and Dayton are 10 teams I feel could win it all. Not sold on Penn State.

I would throw Villanova in there as well. Simply because they know what it takes. They can get hot.
