Bear Down Wildcats

A pretty fantastic final 8 teams if you ask me.

Kentucky
Arizona
Wisconsin
Duke
Gonzaga

These 5 have been ranked in the top 8 ALL season long.

Notre Dame

Have been ranked around 9-15 all season long but has certainly looked like a top 8 team since February. Also should have been a 2 seed instead of that shitty team from Kansas.

Michigan St
Louisville

How do Pitino and Izzo keep doing this with pretty average teams? They are fantastic coaches that's how. Most people thought Virginia and Nova were overrated so does it really surprise anyone that the best 2 coaches from that region were able to advance their teams?

I know we all like rooting for the George Masons and Butler's of the world to shake things up... but this is the best Elite 8 I can remember in a long long time

You ranking them in that order?

I wasn't thinking of it in that way, but pretty much.

I def think AZ- Wisky are 2/ 3 and Duke and Zaga are 4/5

Both those game are going to be awesome

It's hard to argue based on resume but I felt Villanova was overrated all year - and was proven correct. They should have been a 2 and we should be a 1. The game today between Wisconsin and Arizona should be a Final Four game. Also, Michigan State may be the most under seeded team in the tournament.

Agree on Villanova. I actually think Ohio State was the most under-seeded, but yeah, MSU too. Louisville just lucked into playin NCSU after Villanova choked. Screwed up region for sure.

Probably the most solid 8 teams in years. The lower seeds that made it are traditional powers with great coaches.
