Just to retort on some other answers given so far....UCONN isn't going to make the tourney unless it is called NIT and Duke/UNC will never be sleepers. My choice for sleepers are
1. Nevada.....Nick Fazekas is a monster and the whole team can rebound the lights out, so they could easily make a run into the elite 8, or even do a George Mason into the final four.
2. Georgetown was my answer earlier in the season, but they have come on strong and are playing some really good ball right now and have to be removed from the sleeper board.
3. Xavier and Sourthern Illinois are both playing extremely well at the right time (and getting healthy), and barring a horrible first round match-up (like they have both gotten the last few years) should make a run in the tourney.
P.S. also watchout for the blue jays of Creighton...whenever the make they dance they make some noise

The Texas A&M Aggies are my sleeper pick this year. They have really played well this season and the team as a whole has plenty of chemistry. Led by probably the most underrated point guard in college right now, Acie Law and shooting guard Joseph Jones, they have one of the best duos in the game. What i notice alot of teams lack now are good point guards. They direct an offense and Law is as polished as they come. Watch out for the Aggies.

Yeah it seems like UConn is a big sleeper this year. Duke is not doing so well this year. Louisville cards are improving, NC is pretty good. KY wildcats were doing well but slipped after the game with FL. TN hum-mm....I am interested to see the outcome of this question. Big Time NCAA FAN.

Watch out for Butler and Nevada. Nevada is currently rated number 9 in the nation and has a great player in Nick Fazekas. Butler was ranked 17 before a loss. Both of these teams could make it very far in the tournament.

I agree with K-Dawg. I have Michigan State and Oakland both reaching the Sweet 16.

Georgia...They've beaten teams like Gonzaga and have given other top ranked teams, like Wisconsin and Florida, a battle until the very end.
