Final four prediction

[frazor]

Regular season is almost over. Anybody want to make a final 4 prediction before conference play starts??

Arizona
Kentucky
Houston
USC

Really like Houston. This tournament could be absolutely insane.

Bama goes 2/47 from 3 to lose a heartbreaker in the natty

In all seriousness, in football this year we kept saying “there aren’t 10 top 10 caliber teams this year,” and I feel like hoops is in a similar spot.. I don’t see 4 typical 1 seed caliber teams out there. I think the door is wide open for the 4-6 seed group to make a final 4 run. Everybody is extremely beatable and there really isn’t that team that you have to have an elite complete team to beat. Auburn was that team but is not playing near the level they were in January. Kentucky may be that team right now but so banged up it’s hard to be confident in them.

top 2 seeds my favorite to win it all is Kentucky. Villanova as always is a team to watch as well as a 2-3 seed. Baylor has the culture but repeating is obviously difficult. Zona is good but I don’t see them running the gauntlet

There are some 4 and below seed teams that have a team capable of a final 4 and I think Arkansas and Bama are high on that list.

can’t wait.. such a fun time of year

Arizona - maybe the most talented roster in college basketball
Arkansas - they have only lost one game since early January
Baylor - they seem to have righted the ship and are playing well as of late
Kentucky - when fully healthy they're undoubtedly one of the top four teams

Boy y’all have a different read than me on Arizona. I’m praying Bama is the 5 seed in their region. I think they are a major first weekend upset candidate in that 1-8/9 game

I’ll go Arkansas, Baylor, Gonzaga and just because I wish it so much Alabama.

Although I actually think Kentucky.

It's a longshot, but they're the most fundamentally sound team I've seen this season.

It’s not a crazy pick. They’ll be a popular Cinderella pick

It's a longshot, but they're the most fundamentally sound team I've seen this season.

They'll probably be a 10 or 11 seed at best if they're able to win their conference tournament. I doubt they would receive an at large bid. If they get in, I'll be surprised if they win their first round game. I certainly don't see them advancing past the round of 32.
