Which team do you think is a good sleeper to reach the Final Four?

Pittsburgh looks like a good pick, how about Kentucky or Marquette?

their are a few teams that can make a run. Texas playing in houston should make them a favorite. but their not rlly a sleeper..

 

i think that BG can get the wildcats deep in the tournament because we have two senior guards that are battle tested. only thing that we can question is the big men. Stevenson needs to have some big games..

Watch out for Michigan State.  IF they turn it on and play with some fire, I think they've got the talent to make a deep run.  The biggest hurdle would be Memphis.  But, Memphis does not shoot free throws well, and MSU tends to give up a lot of free throw attempts.  It might be a stretch, but I think State has a shot at a Final 4.

I wrote last week that Temple was getting no respect and guess what? They still aren't. They finished 2nd in the A-10 and beat St. Joe's twice and St. Joe's got a higher seed?

Don't be surprised at all if Temple wins their first 2 games.

Pittsburgh point guard Levance Fields had to sit out for seven weeks with a fractured foot during the heart of the Big East schedule.  Now the Fields is back, Pittsburgh is a much better team than their record woudl indicate.  The committee recognized this by giving Pittsburgh a 4 seed.  However, they did not do Memphis any favors by putting Pittsburgh in their division.

In addition to beating three top 25 teams to win the Big East title, Pitsburgh beat top-rates Duke in December.  As long as PIttsburgh does not loose focus and continues to play excelent defense, they have a good chance of winning the South region and making it to the Final 4.

I think Michigan State has a better chance of facing Pittsburgh than Memphis in the third round.

Depends on what you mean by 'sleeper'.  If you're taking about a mid-seed with a chance to win the region, look at Marquette.  Not a whole lot in the middle, but if their guards play well, they can make a run.  If you're talking about  a lower seed with the potential to win a couple games, I like Temple. Christmas and Tyndale are a great duo, and Allen is really coming around down low.  I they think they take down Michigan State and give Pitt all they can handle.

Miami.

They are deep and play with a lot of energy

Guard Jack McClinton can take over a game.

Dwayne Collins is a force down low.
