    1. Who is your final 4?

    2. If a seed 5 or lower gets to the final 4, who will it be?

    Mine:

    Maryland, Kansas St, New Mexico, Duke

    Im not a Duke fan, but they have an easier route to the final four than the other top seeds.. I really hope they get upset by a team like Notre Dame, Siena, Richmond or Baylor. Or maybe Utah St.

    A lower seed team that I think could get there..

    Notre Dame, Xavier, Richmond, San Diego St

    Notre Dame:
    In my bracket I have them making the sweet 16.
    I think If Harangody has good games they will be tough to beat, I have them playing Richmond in the sweet 16.. and I think the winning of that game has an outside chance of knocking off Duke.

    Xavier:
    I have them making the sweet 16 and playing Kansas St.. that will be a tough game for them, but Xavier is a good team with experience, personally, I think the winner of this game makes the final 4.

    Richmond:
    I have them upsetting Villanova in the 2nd round.. they have a lightning quick PG in Kevin Anderson and some sharp shooters as well. Trust me, this is a very good team that can make some noise and will have a shot to knock off Duke if they get as far as I think they can..

    San Diego St
    I have them getting to the Elite 8. Say what you want, but this is a very good team. They had big wins over UNLV, New Mexico twice.. and a close loss to BYU..
    I think they have a good matchup vs Tenn in their 1st round.. then a winnable game vs GTown. I have them beating Georgia Tech in the Sweet 16 as i think they knock off Ohio St

    Although i have them losing to Maryland in the Elite 8, they have some winnable games.

    Although I dont think any of them will actually get there, these are the teams i think have the best shot.

    What are your thoughts??

    Is Harangody playing in the tournament? I thought he’s injured.

    My pick for final 4:
    Kansas, Kentucky, Baylor, Syracuse

    Don’t really see how Kansas and Kentucky would not be in the final four as they both got the best teams.

    I actually think Kentucky can win it all with the best PG in John Wall and the best C in DeMarcus Cousins. Those two are the most important positions on any basketball team.

    Kansas probably got the best team game along with talent level.

    I actually think Duke would get kicked out in 2nd round, maybe by Louisville. They got upset every year. I don’t see why they won’t get upset again this year.

    I would think Xavier would have the best shot to make it for a seed 5 or lower.

    Harangody played in the Big East tournament and looked pretty good, he had 20 and 10 in one game in like 27 minutes or something like that. Notre Dame is a team that is going to be tough in the tournament, I agree with R-Dot, I think they are a sweet 16 game too and could be a real tough matchup for Baylor, I hope that game happens because it would be a very good one.

    I keep moving pieces around but here is my NBAdraftnet bracket final four

    Kansas: The Jayhawks will cruise to the elite eight and then play either a tired Ohio State or G-Town

    Syracuse: They don’t have a team that can beat them in there bracket

    Kentucky: I have faith, I think KU might be a scary team that keeps opponent in there games

    Baylor: I love Duke but I don’t know. I want to put them in FF but I stated that Baylor will be my Final Four shocking team. At least Duke gets into the E8

    I have Kentucky winning it all

    I don’t think Kentucky is winning it all, they have no experience and experience goes a long way in the tourney. I think Kentucky is capable of making it to the champ game, but if they play Kansas they won’t win. Bill Self will out coach Calipari. Also, I don’t think Kentucky deserves to be in because I know Calipari is cheating to get guys like Wall and Cousins, the SEC doesn’t get that talent, so he is pulling a few strings. I know Quincey may tell me about how the free flowing offense is what gets Calipari recruits, but it is other things that are illegal as well. I hope to see that guy get a “show cause” and not coach for a while.
