Maybe it's my Duke hating glasses, but I don't get them as this tremendous favorite. They're an iffy 3 point shooting team and lack depth.ASUHATER! wrote:Agree. Duke is the favorite but there are like 10 teams that could win it. As long as ASU loses early and Duke gets knocked out in the sweet 16 or earlier, there's nothing else to really watch for or care about.Spaceman Spiff wrote:It will be sort of nice not having to care.

Not even going to do a bracket this year
Other than Duke and ASU losing, I don't care about any of the other 66 teams.
A bad shooting night, injury or foul trouble are all big issues for them. Now, it is Duke, so foul trouble is unlikely, but the remainder makes it fairly wide open. Duke can overwhelm midlevel teams with Zion, Jones, Barrett and Reddish's physicality, but a real top level team isn't nearly as clear.
