Elite 8 predictions!


This years NCAA tournament has had many upsets. Now I will tell you why this upset year will end in the Elite 8.

Elite 8 Predictions: 

Florida vs Dayton: Dayton keeps it close in the first half but Florida makes several runs and wins in a blow out. Dayton has had a great tournament run and shows anything can happen in march. However, Dayton isn't the team everyone makes them out to be. They won when Ohio State and Syracuse missed buzzer beaters to win. The teams that Dayton has played has not played well. That ends today and Florida is off to the Final Four.

Arizona vs Wisconsin: A very good game! Wisconsin is up late but Arizona pulls away and wins by 3. Wisconsin misses a buzzer beater to send the game into overtime. I think this will be the best game of the Elite 8. 2 good teams fighting it out. I don't think Wisconsin was deserving of a two seed. I didn't even know they were in contention until selection Sunday. I think this will show against Arizona, especially in the last few minutes.

Michigan St. vs UCONN: A good game 3/4 of the way through but MSU pulls away on a huge run and win by around 10. I don't think MSU will play well in the first half and UCONN heads to the locker room with a lead. MSU will start to play their game in the second half and go back and forth thuntil about 9 mins remain, where Gary Harris will play stellar d-fense and offense.

Michigan vs Kentucky: Everyone thinks this will be a great game. I don't think so Michigan starts hot and wins in a blow out! Kentucky is going to play poorly, the way they played at the beginning of the year. Michigan will play very well and stop Kentucky
from scoring and Michigan will be the only returning team to the final 4 this year.

These will be your final 4 match ups:

1) Florida ------------ Arizona (1
l ----- Champ ----- l
4) Michigan State Michigan (2

What could be an upset year, will be spoiled in the elite 8!
