I can buy your rankings for the most part, wouldn't have them exactly the same way obviously, but the one spot in your rankings I really have the hardest time with is Kansas. I just feel like they aren't really that good, not at a 'normal' Kansas level. And don't forget Self has only been to the Final Four once in the last eight years, that's a little lean for one of the Blue Blood programs. Anyway, it may be just wishful thinking on my part (because for some reason I just can't stand Kansas) but even if they get by Clemson (toss-up), I think there's no way they are beating Duke.

Can definitely see that. Living in the middle of Big 12 Country, I usually get lots of Kansas games on, so far me, it might be a case of overexposure. Know that plenty aren't huge on them and agree that they aren't your normal Kansas team. I just really like their backcourt of Graham and Mykhailiuk.

Duke is a very bad matchup for Kansas because they are so deep across their front lines where Kansas has to live and die with Azubuike (staying out of foul trouble, hitting his free throws, etc.).
