Which teams will make the Final Four? And who is most likely to make a run like G.Mason?

Question

My picks are: Florida, A&M, Wisconsin, & my darkhorse: Memphis

Answer 1

UNC
Texas A&M
Florida (yea they lost, but they'll still be there)
Wisconsin

Texas A&M is still running under the radar so to speak so they are gonna be my darkhorse. Acie Law is just wicked!

Answer 2

To reiterate a previous point: southern illinois, nevada, memphis... these are top 15 teams. Teams that highly ranked can hardly be considered a 'George Mason'. Hell, Memphis will probably be a #2 seed. That's a dark horse? First of all, George Mason (a #11 seed from a low-major conference in the final four) was lightning in a bottle and we would be lucky to see that again in our lifetimes let alone this year (especially with the new age limit rule in the NBA guaranteeing more high major talent in the coming years.) Second of all, George Mason was a team no one would have even thought of ranking, let alone ranking as high as S. Ill, Nev., or Memph. If there is another George Mason type team out there poised to make a run, they are someone no one is even thinking about thinking about. How is Austin Peay or Detroit Mercy doing this year? Don't know? Neither does anyone else.

As for real, honest to goodness dark horses: Vanderbilt, Stanford, Alabama, Texas Tech... now those are some horses with a tan on 'em!

Answer 3

Final Four: Florida, Ucla, UNC, and Gerogetown.
Winner: Florida

Dark horse: Tennesse

First off, you cant call Memphis, Butler, Nevada ect. a dark horse. THEY ARE RANKED! If you want to know who this years GM is, its no one. Maybe Texas because if Durant gets hot he could carry his team and cause many other teams problems.But calling #9 Memphis a DARKHORSE is a retarded comment. They are a TOP 10 TEAM!! GM was an 11 seed. Give me a break. None of us know who will do that. Bama if they get in will be a 10 or 11 seed and with all of their talent could make a run. But really, DARK HORSE means someone who NO ONE expects. Not a Top 10 or 25 team. haha

Answer 4

Wisconsin, Florida, UCLA, Memphis

Dark Horse-Southern Illinois

Answer 5

In my dreams Final Four: Duke, Wisconsin, Oklahoma State, and Ohio State


Actual Final Four Prediction: Florida, Wisconsin, Ohio State, A&M

And Butler is this years G.Mason

Answer 6

A&M, Pitt, Duke, UCLA. I agree that Nevada and SIU are darkhorses. Is anyone really predicting that they make it to the Final Four? I think they are both locks to make the tournament--they're both playing extremely good basketball right now. I don't think anyone really expects that they'll be in Atlanta come the first weekend in April. Both come from mid-major type conferences.

Answer 7

Memphis can't hit enough foul shots to win four in a row in March.

Florida, UCLA, Ohio State and Georgetown would be my picks.

I think Nevada is the mid-major who will make the most noise- three seed in the West, and give UCLA all it can ask for in the final eight.

Answer 8

Good question. I think my final four will be Kansas, UNC, Florida and I hope Ohio State. I have 2 teams that I think can be like this year's George Mason. It's got to be Nevada or Southern Illinois. Both of these teams have wonderful playmakers in Nick Fazekas (Nevada) and Jamaal Tatum (Southern Illinois). Both of these teams have a good shot to be like last year's George Mason and pull some upsets come March.

Answer 9

George Mason was once in a lifetime. dont expect that to be done again. but if you need a mid major team to make a run try wichita state or butler

Final Four picks Florida, UCLA, Wisconsin, and Pittsburgh

Answer 10

UCLA, Texas A&M, Kansas, and Florida.

Dark horse: Nevada.
