It looks to me like the only teams with the depth, defense and experience to go deep are Louisville, Georgetown, UNC, Memphis, UCLA, and TX. Xavier and Kansas maybe. What a great tourney it is shaping up to be though...
Please oh please stay healthy Cards!!!!!!!!!!

if they expect to be a final 4 team they had better spend a lot of time on the free throw ling in practice. I think in so many big games that is where it comes down to and Louisville(not as bad as Memphis though) has some serious issues there

Absolutely, I don't think it would be a freak event for them to make it there, but they will need a few breaks. Hitting 80% from the free throw line could easily be constued as a lucky break.

you know it used to be nothing for a team to hit 80% from free throw line but now free throws are a lost art. I think Bradley leads the SEC with 85%. I remember Macy and others hitting nearly 90
