No offense, im not saying this because im from texas or anything. Texas A&M made a good first run in the tourney last year. and this year they have the # 1 defense in the nation from turnovers to points allowed. #1. But no one gives them credit...they are in the top 10 the past 5 weeks easily and they will be until the season is over. I gurantee them to go far in the tourney. Any one agree or do yall have any other underdogs to go far?

I agree, Texas A&M and Memphis

Depends on how you define underdog. If you define Texas A&M as an underdog than I can guarantee you there will be an underdog in the Final Four. I would be willing to bet everything I own that a team ranked outside the top 7 will make the final four. Its stupid to predict final four matchups right now as those are pretty much random.
my picks for the final four: UCLA, Oregon, Wisconsin, Pitt
Texas, Ohio St, NC, Kansas too young, Florida too arrogant
I wouldn't be so sure USC is even going to make the tournament. How they handle losing two straight (Oregon then UCLA) will probably decide their season.

OSU is too young, and very overrated. I'd be surprised to see them in the final four. I like UCLA, UNC, Florida, and Texas as deep runners - of course these seem to be obvious choices. USC has a very good team capable of beating some ranked teams, but they are a little too inconsistent to go deep (possibly a first round upset bid though). Also, don't overlook Nevada, a perennial tough team early in the tournament in the earlier rounds, they could possibly play in the sweet 16 depending on their draws.
Also, other teams to just keep an eye on...WVU, Indiana, and Michigan St. The coaching of WVU and Michigan St. is top notch.

I would say this will be the final four... tell me if this looks like any underdogs to you:
Florida vs. Texas
Wisconsin vs. Kansas
Florida over Wisconsin in the NC. I would say that the UT Longhorns are my underdog pick due to the stellar play of Kevin Durant.

My Final 4 is Florida, Duke, NC, and OSU but a underdowg that I think has the pottential is deffinately Clemson by far. This team has alot of talent. They should have beat Duke and they let NC slip away but they still have a major chance of going all the way!

Everyone's not considering the amazing job Alando Tucker and the Badgers of Wisconsin are doing. They're doing way better. They're able to win their home games and their away games. Did anyone notice they've already won 20 games?
