I have Ariz meeting Kansas in the Region Finals............ i
dont trust Villanova, and to me, Ariz vs Miami is a toss up, so
i went with the more experienced team.

Been burned by Arizona the past two years, but I may go with
them to E8 as well.
Anyone else here like Cal? I loved them coming in but Hawaii and
Kansas scare me

Seems like Hawaii is 'the peoples horse'... meaning i've seen
Hawaii being touted by several different touts / sites, and
would like someone here to give a technical analysis of just WHY
Hawaii is a good pick.....

Couple different reasons: Hawaii can win the TO battle very
easily (Cal simply does not force TOs) and they can light it up
from three. They also get to the line a lot, and Cal isn't
exactly great at not fouling.
Even with all that, I still side with Cal...as a Tennessee fan,
I watched Cuonzo win seemingly fifteen of these "significantly
more talented than the other team but they miss a three as time
expires to lose by a point" games.

Don't look to far for your F4 team here. It is Kansas and a very
slim chance of Villanova. When you look at those two teams you
see a lot of early exits in last few tournaments. Don't look for
Miami to go far based on past history. Which helps open it up on
bottom for Villanova. Could we maybe see a Kansas Wichita St
regional final?

Hey guys, I'm so leery of taking Kansas far because of past
flame outs and the fact that Self doesn't cut it.
And haven't they won too many games in a row? I thought one of
the 10 DQ's for a 1 seed was winning 9 or more games in a row
and they have 10 I believe. Unless I'm mixing that stat up with
something else?

To my knowledge, that stat only exists for champions, and
Louisville finished 2013 winning 10 in a row heading into the
tournament, so I'm not sure how much to trust it.

Ok thanks for the info, Will. Still not going to have them
winning it. Maybe Final 4 at best.
