At this point in the season, I believe the following teams are in the best position to make a run to the Final Four.
Kansas - big, athletic forwards, quick guards, super coach.
Texas - a superstar forward and rabbit-like in transition
Duke - they are the champs until someone takes it
Villanova - if healthy, maybe the best overall guard play in the country
Pitt - my favorite to cut down the nets with a healthy Ashton Gibbs
Georgetown - as gritty a team as they come
Notre Dame - great shooters and enough rebounding to make any opponent nervous...also, "sneaky" athletic
UCONN - great shot blocker and a wonderful scorer
Wisconsin - deadly shooters and the ability to win "ugly"
Arizona - underrated...lost to 3 ranked teams and only have 4 total losses. Sean Miller is a great young coach.
Ohio State - the best big man in the country and great secondary scorers
Syracuse - a mezmerizing zone, mammoth big men and guards who can step up if needed
Honorable Mentions:
North Carolina - Talented and,since Larry Drew II departed, gaining momentum
BYU - they have the best scorer in the country
San Diego State - Steve Fisher has seen it all before, and they are athletic
St. Mary's - They have supplanted Gonzaga as the best team in their league, and we've seen what Gonzaga can do in March
