Another pool of 65 teams have been entered to compete for the college basketball national championship.
The four #1 seeds are: Kentucky, Duke, Syracuse, and Kansas.
This might be another year where all four #1 seeds make the Final Four. However, Kentucky continues to barely squeak out wins against sub-par SEC teams and won't work against some of the better teams in their bracket like West Virginia or even Wisconsin. They do have an easier road to the Final Four then any of the other #1 seeds.
Not to keep coming down on Kentucky because they are a very talented team, but their youth will come back to haunt them in the Elite Eight against West Virginia.
As boring as this sounds, I like the other #1 seeds to hold serve and make the Final Four.
In the end I think we're set up for a great NCAA Tournament because there is so much parody in this year's field.
You've got plenty of possible Cinderella teams, with 13-seeded Cornell being the most likely to make a big run.
When it's all said and done I like Duke to shock Kansas for the national title. This team's basketball IQ is through the roof and they play so well together.
On paper Kansas looks like the best team in the country but their loss to Tennessee makes me think that they're going to slip up against the Blue Devils.
