Final 4 picks

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Who is everybodies final four picks before the year starts.
I’ll go Michigan st, Kansas, Marquette, and Duke.

 

[BigCat241]

UK, Houston, Duke, and Arky for me.

I almost went with the homer pick, but I went kinda chalk

Fair enough, I dont really think any team is clear cut above any others (maybe duke?), so I like our chances with our high end potential.

 

[Louis_Skunt]

UK
UConn
Kansas
Arkansas

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

Kentucky, a ten seed, an 11 seed, and a big ten team we should beat

We lose

I guess I’m petty as hell , but I refuse to pick Duke until Schyere proves he can take a team to a final four. I saw where he was ranked as the 5th best coach in the acc . For what ? He’s been a head coach 1 damn year. Hell , Hubert Davis took his team to the final four his first year and look what happened last year.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

UK
Hogs
UCONN
Kansas

I can see the reasoning and it’s a good point, but that roster is loaded loaded and I think they will be like the Zion duke team and the 2021 one that made the final four

I’ll admit I let my white hot hatred for duke influence my judgment, lol .

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

I'm not sure if I'll make my picks until January, but I can say this: if UK's not one of the Final Four teams, Cal is finished here.

 

[ScottGreene22]

UConn KY Kansas Purdue

My only questions with duke are do they have to many guys, somebody is gonna be left out for mins, and is Filipowski healthy

 

[School boy]

Duke East, Unconn West, Kansas Midwest, UT South.

Cal has already been finished years ago, he just collects a paycheck now.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

It will probably be a bunch of random teams.

Don't think people understand yet what NIL is gonna do to the sport.

I'm with you. Everyone was jerking him off up until they got curb stomped in the 2nd round of the tournament. Has proved nothing. Hell, Jay Bilas was almost in tears on the selection show that they weren't a 3 seed LOL.

Deep thoughts by catzfanjim.

Didn’t the Zion team lose in the elite eight?

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Didn’t the Zion team lose in the elite eight?

That’s kinda of my point, that’s where I see their floor being

 

[anon1751545683]

UK and 3 wannabes.

 

[Kingslayer07]

They basically lost in the 2nd round. It was a damn miracle they beat a nobody in UCF.

Don't think it's petty at all. It's common sense. Let's wait and see what he can do. He didn't exactly set the basketball world in fire last year

Forget last year.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Forget last year.

Why would we/should we forget last year?

The ACC is also looking worse and worse as the years go by. The SEC has 9 teams in the top25 and others receiving votes. The ACC has 4. Duke will run through the ACC, but what is that worth these days?

I'm surprised with all the Hog love...we don't have a true post...I like the team a lot...but not getting a portal big when they were all over the place in the portal will hurt the Hogs.

Tenner (they're legit...if Barnes doesn't screw this one up...look out)
Mich St (really like the makeup of their team)
Creighton (probably 3 of the top 20 players in CBB: Ashworth, Kalkbrenner, Scheierman)
Duke (most talented team and will get the easy draw for views)

 

[true-blue1]

I think it's impossible to pick now maybe in January after watching for awhile.

 

[Runt#1969]

I'll go with

Duke
Arizona
Michigan state
Kentucky

Just for giggles, here's my 1A picks :

Kansas
Purdue
Tennessee
Random 11 seed

It's impossible to make a pick once the brackets are released lol.

 

[UKAlum88]

Rupp Rafters has become infested with trolls and it’s become unbearable. Hopefully with the season starting, the mods will start taking out the trash more often now than over the summer.

Lol, that's true.

 

[Jacket4]

Duke (possible number 1 overall seed)
Kansas
Creighton
Arkansas

I want to say MSU because they have a great team on paper and Izzy always works magic in March.

 

[Wildcats1st]

Duke
UCOnn
Random team maybe fau again
Virginia

 

[dlh331]

Duke (possible number 1 overall seed)
Kansas
Creighton
Arkansas

Always? Izzo has 6 1st round losses and 4 2nd round losses (10 1st weekend exits)

I'm not sure Duke is the most talented team, I think UK is gonna have 4 First Rounders. Duke has prob only got 2 sure fire first rounders. Plus Edwards will prob be the top player from those two teams.
