Did Wake Forest make it to the NCAA Tournament? Wake Forest who finished the year at 20-13 and went 11-9 in ACC play was left out of the bracket. A late three-game losing streak against non-tournament teams in Notre Dame, Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech and a one-and-done exit against Pitt in the ACC Tournament proved costly for the Demon Deacons.
What is the most upsets in an NCAA Tournament? Biggest point-spread upsets in NCAA championship game history:
Alabama's lack of an inside force has cost them at times this year. It could again if New Mexico doesn't oust Clemson. If the Tide make it out of the first weekend, this might be a Final Four team. Mark Sears is an electric playmaker who can carry this team far. The Spartans are a different team in March. Any team that beats Baylor by 24 points on a neutral court is dangerous.
The size of the Tar Heels could be an issue, but remember that the Heels lost to far inferior teams in Syracuse and Georgia Tech this year. Is Kentucky really a sleeper. Maybe not, but I don't think that most people realize how well they have been playing since the loss to LSU.
Kentucky has scored at least 85 points in all six games since and topped twice. Running into the Aggie buzzsaw in Nashville isn't a bad loss to me. If the Gators can make it past Boise State or Colorado, they have an open path to the regional finals. Marquette is the weakest two seed and they already beat Kentucky twice this year -- once in Rupp Arena.
The loss of Micah Handlogten is going to hurt them, but Thomas Haugh and Alex Condon both played well down the stretch. I feel like the Gators are equipped to handle that loss this year. The Aztecs made the Final Four as a five seed last year. The bad news is that the other two teams from last year's Final Four that qualified for this tournament are all at the top of their region.
You know that the Aztecs would love another crack at UConn. Can they beat them. Ncaa sleepers I have my doubts, but you can bet that it would be a good game. The metrics love BYU more than the committee did. They beat Kansas in Lawrence this year and gave Iowa State hell both times they played them.
This is a really good draw for the Cougars. The Bulldogs have been rolling since falling out of the rankings in January and they got a dream draw. They get a hobbled Kansas maybe , then Purdue doubtful. Both are beatable for the Bulldogs. If Purdue makes it out of the first round this year likely against Montana State Our goal is to put out the highest-quality content and tools.

I've also got Tennessee falling in the Sweet 16, to Creighton.
Kentucky landed a good region draw. If the Wildcats decide to play a little defense, I think they can emerge as a 3-seed from the South. UK to the Final Four. The Wildcats are blessed with one of the nation's most talented roster, and the NCAA Tournament stage should motivate them to show up on defense.
UK to the Final Four Toppmeyer : No. New Mexico got hot to win the conference tournament. The Lobos average more than 81 points per game and have four players scoring in double figures. Clemson limps in as losers of three of its last four. Sounds like an upset recipe. But is it clutch?
Toppmeyer: No. Adams: No.
