    Syracuse, Ohio State, Villanova, Iowa State, Wisconsin

    I think a lot of people will be picking these teams to bow out earlier than expected. Which ones do you think will surprise and make a run? I expect Syracuse, Nova, and ISU to be out during the 1st weekend with Ohio State making a run. I can't make up my mind about Wisconsin though

    I look at Ohio State and it is sad. Such a great program with such great talent. But, they just don't have it. They have no one that can get to the basket. The offense consists of contested jumpers which is why we see them go on runs and then go down 17. Unless Craft changes his game and decides to takeover they don't have a shot. Their defense can win them a game but they are terrible.

    Cuse really is all match up. If the team can shoot then watch out, if not Cuse will keep plugging away.

    Has Bo Ryan ever made a run?

    I like Iowa St best out of all of these. They really have an athletic advantage against any team they should play the first weekend and multiple scoring threats to pick up the slack. Very underrated in my opinion.

    Nova? I would lean towards out early but the right match ups and a mini-run wouldn't surprise me.

    I don't think Iowa St. I think they are poised to make a run.

    Watch out for Oregon, they may have the most talent until they face Zona in the elite 8
