Only reason I don't have UNC in mine is Lawson's health. I have serious doubts that he'll be 100% at any point the rest of the way, and without him or with him at 70%, I think they go down before they get to San Antonio.......

They have good guard play, they shoot free throws well, and they have six? guys averaging double digits so if anyone has an off night, someone else is there to pick up the slack

They went Final 8 last year, I believe and this team is better IMO

I don't have them because at some point, they're gonna have to win a game at the foul line and they just can't do it.......

Don't know why but it always seems UCLA has a stretch in almost every game where they lose their focus. Saw it again yesterday, against better competition, don't know if they can get away with that in a big game

Not really built to make a big comeback if they have to overcome a big margin, but would not be suprised if they made it to the Final 4

Though I don't think they will
