My final four:

Pitt
Kansas
'Cuse
BYU

Although to be honest, Duke will probably be in there, likely in place of Syracuse or BYU. But this is who I think is really playing the best, tournament style ball with the ability to beat the majority of others in the field.

I'm already regretting my cuse pick. and when you watch them, they don't have any players that wow you.

Cuse has been struggling so bad lately... Haven't watched a ton of college ball this year. Two teams that really impress me though are Duke and Pitt

No love from anyone for OSU?

Who else loves watching Jimmer Fredette? He's definitely got the talent for the NBA, he can create his own shots, unlike say JJ Re****.

Fredette is really good. He'll end up being a Redick type player though. He'll be a 3 point guy off the bench for somebody. He can create a lot better than JJ, and has better handles, but it's still not enough to create his own shots in the NBA. He'll be a 1st rounder though.

Yeah, why wasn't the best team in the country mentioned?

I'd say he's way better than Re**** ever was in college. He's a point guard for one, which shows in his quicks and maneuvering.

I'd say Redick was definitely better. There's very few guys i've seen at the college game as good as Redick. Unlike Jimmer, Redick went up against top-notch competition his whole career, battling in the ACC. Jimmer is in the Mountain West and doesn't face the same type of talent JJ did.

He does have better handles and quickness, and he has a stronger body, but that's not really gonna matter in the NBA. He isn't big enough or quick enough to go to the lane in the NBA, he's gonna be a spot-up shooter, just like Redick. Redick's turned out to be a solid NBA guy, I am interested to see what Fredette can do.

I'm pulling for the Gators - only time I will root against my 'Cats.
