Horrible break for West Virginia who was going to have a VERY difficult game with Washington who loves to get up and down the court before their point guard goes down. W Va was a 5 point favorite before and are a 1 point favorite now. Be tought for W Va to run and gun with Washington without their point guard and it would not suprise me if the Mountaineers go down.
UK - Lock for the final four, out goes 1 Big East team
TN - with what is left, has a very good chance to make the final four
Syracuse will have 2 very tough games in Butler and then most likely Kansas State and has the absolute toughest road to get to the final four (I think Kansas State gets there)
I will take the SEC in the 2 versus 2 left battle to see which teams go farther.
The SEC was down this year no doubt. TN loses its top scorer to suspension and still manages to beat Kansas and UK in the regular season but got drilled by 30 by UK in the SEC Tourney. Vandy was decent, Florida should have not gotten in the tourney but Miss St should have been in. The entire West was down overall and the best teams were by far in the East part of the SEC. That being said, a down year in the SEC and there are 2 teams left but a GREAT year in the Big Least - sorry Big East, and they have 2 teams left, go figure. To me that says something, Louisville, Georgetown, Villanova, and Pittsburgh were all favorites in the games they lost (2 of them were double digit favorites by the way). How good is the Big East afterall?
