UCLA should win, because of their defense but Florida has that too, UCLA has experience, but Florida has more talent.  It comes down to offense and free throws and Florida has a slight edge over UCLA.  Both teams were fortunate to get here, because despite the title of National Champion one of them will carry, neither of them are even in the Top 3 this year in my opinion.  But I say Florida upsets UCLA in the year of upsets and makes Vegas even richer!

I agree in that UCONN will win it all. But they have a weakness that Villanova and Marquette exposed. UCONN has trouble defending against the 3 point shot.\n\nSo unless they play Villanova or another team whose offense revolves around the 3-pointer(like W.Virginia), UCONN should win it all. They just wear their opponents down.

I have to say Gators at this point. They will get it done against Ben Howland's Bruins of UCLA. Ben Howland, former coach of my Pitt Panthers, will not be able to use defense to stop the longball. The Gators are young and quick enough to hit from anywhere and everywhere on the court. The Gators will try to get this intoa shootout, so unless Howland can stop the Gators using defense, the Gators have the national championship. I have to say I think Billy Donovan really deserves a championship.

If they play smart basketball like they did against UConn they can beat anyone. Their three guards provide great outside shooting and have a great ability to make free throw shots when they get fouled in the paint. \n\nGeorge Mason's forward (Will Thomas) and center (Jai Lewis) work very well together and are huge threats in the paint. If Thomas and Lewis set up a good inside game they can draw double teams and set up Lamar Butler on the perimeter for clutch three point shots. \n\nGeorge Mason is truly the greatest cinderella team to ever play in the tournament. Thier big wins over 6th seed Michigan State, 3rd seed North Carolina, and one seed UConn is the greatest feat a team (11th seed) has ever accomplished. I am pulling for George Mason and hoping that they can pull off a miracle win against Florida to make it to the National Championship.\n\nMark my Words, If George Mason can disrupt Joakim Noah and Al Horford, George Mason will win the game by 3+ points.

I'm going for the Mavericks. Not just because I'm from Texas, but because they play a style of basketball that the Heat can't compare to. They actually PASS the ball. They actually play as a TEAM, and well, I can't say the same thing for the Heat.\n\nBesides, the Mavs are playing with a lot of heart, and that's whats gonna help them win at the end.\n\n☺!!!GO MAVS!!!☻

What a wacky first weekend its been!!  There can't be any correct brackets left in the country.  KU is a victim of great equality in college basketball.  The days of dynasties might be over.  Smaller, lesser known teams are stepping up.

Man I can't wait for this game!!!!!!!!! My heart is telling me Michigan will pull it off, my brain keeps on breaking my heart though. I can't stand the Luckeyes but if I were to put money on it, I'd have to go with osu. Sorry

Well i agree with some of the people here. UConn is a power house team but they do have some hard games ahead of them but i think if they get past the Sweet 16 and Elite 8 then they'll be in the Championship with the winner of Duke/Texas (two very good teams). I think this whole tournament is up for grabs and fun to watch....thats y its called MARCH MADNESS!!!!

I would hesitate to pick any team at this point.  There are some good ones (UConn, Duke, Illinois) - so bracketing will be everything.\n\nBut you can't really argue with UConn's results, so I would take them at this early stage.

I think Duke has a good chance in the tournament. They have played very strong all season and the loss to FSU will only refocus Coach K, and Reddick and Co. to play to the best of their ability. I think Duke should make the Final Four and from there it is anyone's guess. When you get to that point in the tournament anything can happen. Very rarely do we not see at least one top team go down in the Semi-final game. The ACC schedule Duke plays usually prepares them well for the tournament, but they do tend to have troubles beating Big 10 teams in the NCAA tourney. This can be attributed to the fact that the ACC and Big 10 play different styles of ball. The big 10 likes to bang around in the paint and the ACC likes to use better guard play. But this year the styles have seemed a little closer. Duke should fare well in the tourney this year.

It's definetely the UCONN Huskies. They are the most dominant college hoops team in the country.

IF they could get past Gonzaga next week, Memphis will kill them and take the spot in the Final Four ... and not getting to the Final Four makes it pretty tough to win the tournament!

GONZAGA RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Morrison should be the first pick overall. They got robbed against ucla. But the zags are still the best

Let me tell you a story. Two seasons ago I picked Xavier to beat Louiville in the 1st round even though they were underdogs. Everyone thought I was crazy. What shocked them more was the fact that I picked them to win the 2nd round, and the sweet 16 round. I was right. Now Gonzaga is a different team. They have the player who can hit almost every shot he takes. And that is all they need to win believe it or not. Xavier winning the big 10 was good, but have they faced Adam Morrison before this season? No.
