I'm going with:
Mich St.
Oregon
Kentucky
Villanova
First off, I just want to say the West region is horrible. That's the region I predict could get really messy. I picked Oregon but didn't feel confident in any of the top six seeds in that bracket so I simply went with the top pick. I went with Villanova in the South because I think they have a much easier road than Kansas who will potentially be matched up against UConn in the second round and either Maryland or Cal in the third. Those are all tough teams to get past. In the East I picked Kentucky. They're just starting to hit on all cylinders. N.C. can't make a lot of threes so I see that as their undoing. West Virginia is a darkhorse but I just can't pick a Big12 team in the final four other than Kansas until they prove they can make it. If Mich St. and Virginia meet in the final 8 that should be a whale of a game. KenPom loves Virginia but I went with Mich St. since they have Valentine playing well and won't be playing Iowa. I'll probably get only one of the four but that's the way it goes.
