This is the second hardest region to pick, with a lot of good teams here. I don’t know how Florida lucked out with a 2 seed, I
think its way too high for them. I see one of two things happening: Jimmer Fredette goes off for 30-40 points every game and carries BYU to the Elite 8 and possibly Final 4 (BYU will go as far as he takes them), or a team will upset BYU in the early rounds, ending Fredettes historical season and career. I see Pitt as the team to take BYU down in the Elite 8. Do not sleep on Wisconsin or St. Johns, two very dangerous teams.
Best Team: Pittsburgh or BYU
Who Will Win: Pittsburgh
Player(s) to Look Out For: Jimmer Fredette (BYU), Ashton Gibbs (Pitt)
Matchup(s) to Look Out For: St. Johns vs. BYU (3rd Round), Pittsburgh vs. Wisconsin (Sweet 16), Pittsburgh vs. BYU (Elite 8 )
Possible Upset(s): Wofford over BYU (2nd Round), Utah St. over Kansas St. (2nd Round)
