Elite Eight for March Madness









The Dance is almost here and I have selected my favorite eight teams to eyeball heading into the tournament.



East-North Carolina and Georgetown
Midwest-Ohio State and Pittsburgh
South-Memphis and Florida
West-Nevada and UCLA

UNC-Terry, Ty and Tyler (Terminator 3?)

G'Town-Top six players average more than 7 points with tough defense

Ohio St-Oden and Conley Jr have played on same team since 6th grade!

Pitt-Aaron Gray on a mission

Memphis-Coach John Calipari and his stellar cast of athletes

Florida-Defending champs with son of Yannick Noah

Nevada-Fazekas great human interest story (look him up) and George Mason of 2007

UCLA-Depth, talent and hunger

Who will win the tournament? I can't say right now, but one of these eight teams will either win or at least play in the title game. Until the brackets come out, it is tough to say. If I had to choose, UNC would get my early vote.
