Big Ten has two excellent teams this season. As they did last season. NW and Hopkins won't make any noise this month (If Hopkins even gets in the tournament).

ACC will do fine in the tournament. Trash is a little harsh for rest of ACC. Syracuse and UVA could win a game or two. ACC should get 6-7 teams into tournament.

Ivy should get 3 teams in Princeton and Penn look strongest and could win a couple of games.

MPSF: USC and Colorado. USC will make final 8. Colorado will have to go through USC to advance.

Big East: Florida and Denver.... Only UF is for real.

America East: Stonybrook (and maybe Albany).

I don't think any of the other conferences pose any real threat...

Final 8: Maryland, Penn State, UNC, Syracuse, Florida, Stonybrook, USC and Penn (depending on brackets).

Tournament is Maryland's to lose. Should be a Maryland/UNC final again. UNC will have to play a full 60 minutes to compete (like they did last year). If they spot Maryland a lead like they did with Syracuse yesterday, they will be in for a long day.

Good luck to all the teams this week and on Selection Sunday.
