Final Four Predictions

It is that time of year again, when the Final Four is in a few days, and everyone is scrambling and hustling to change their picks. All of the teams this year have a good chance of winning, and there is no clear view of who will win it all, unless you love Kentucky. Here are the Final Four team rankings and predictions.

1. Kentucky

I would lose my job if I didn't have Kentucky at the top spot. They will have a tough ride to the perfect championship season. They almost lost to Notre Dame, who is a small quick team which matches well with the Kentucky big men. The Badgers also have that speed with Sam Dekker and Nigel Hayes. This will be a game to go down to the wire.

2. Duke

The firepower of Jahlil Okafor, Justice Winslow, Tyus Jones, and Quinn Cook puts Duke in the number two rank. They play Michigan State on Saturday. Most people think this will be a blowout, but you can never count out Tom Izzo and co.

3. Wisconsin

Frank Kaminsky and Sam Dekker are going up against Willie Cauley- Stein and Karl- Anthony Towns will be a battle for the ages. As I was writing this, in my mind was a debate between Duke and Wisconsin. I decided to put Wisconsin third.

4. Michigan State

Michigan State has as much chance as the other teams to win it all, but they don't have enough firepower and stardom to match up with Wisconsin, Duke, and Kentucky.

Game #1: Duke vs. Michigan State
Pick: Duke
Why: Like I said before, I don't think the Spartans will get past Duke and their set of promising young players.

Game #2: Kentucky vs. Wisconsin
Pick: Wisconsin
Why: The Badgers are fast and the Wildcats may not be able to catch up with them. I like the Badgers here and Predict Wisconsin upsetting Kentucky.
