I'll say pitt just because they are the only 1 seed that has a pretty difficult second round game, and the fact they never get past the sweet 16.

They might be better than the other 1 seeds, but that is irrelavant.


Surprised uconn is leading this vote. I think they have the easiest road to the final 4, despite being the 4th best 1 seed.

pitt. If Blair gets in foul trouble ... they are done. Blair came out and said the refs are aiming for him. That can't be a good thing to say before the tournament. <br/>

Uconn, simply because they are not the same team without Dyson. He gives them a legit threat besides Price from the outside, doesn't require Austrie and Walker to play as much.

UNC has the easiest path to the final four. According to Andy the Idiot Katz, UNC has the toughest path.

good teams with dominant interior defenses like UCONN usually represent well in the tourney. I think Louisville will be the first to exit...

UNC, because Gonzaga is going to knock them off in the Sweet 16.

This is the one matchup that would be really bad for UNC. This might be one of the best games of the tourney, and as a diehard nc fan I would be all over the bulldogs +6 or more.

Uconn is out at the Elite 8 vs. Washington. Pitt's out at the elite 8 against whoever wins that other wing of East. So whichever game comes first

I love the disrespect. That's usually a good thing.

I don't see UConn getting past Purdue or Memphis



I'm sorry but whats so special about Purdue? I don't see it. They play defense, but they haven't played against a frontcourt as big as thabeet, as beastly as Adrien, and as athletic as stanley.


I think UNC gets knocked, their defense is skeptical quite often. Uconn doesnt have nearly as good of a perimeter D as they did, but its still decent.

One factor most people are forgetting is the teams and coaches that have been there before....experience will play a big part in sweet 16 to final!!!!! Nerves will get the first timers.

How can people say UCONN's path to the final four is the easiest when they might have to play Memphis? Purdue is the strongest 5 seed, Washington is a dangerous team, and Memphis is the strongest 2 seed but yeah uconn should have no problems because they have a tall clumsy center. right.

unc has probably the toughest path though, so i can see someone voting for them. zaga is a scary team to play, so is lsu in the second round. then you have a possible matchup vs blake griffin in the elite eight. not an easy path at all.

pitt should cruise. no real threats until possibly duke or villanova in the elite 8.

anyways, I voted louisville for the simple fact that i think they are the weakest 1 seed. obviously i know they are the #1 overall seed, but I would be willing to bet linesmakers would agree that they'd be dogs to pitt, uconn and unc on a neutral court. unc would be favored over anyone.
