Now I could be a little Big 12 Bias, but after filling out my brackett this is what I came up with on espn.com
Kansas vs Florida
Texas vs Texas A&M
Now it is very possible that this could happen. In the East divison Texas really has to worry about UNC in the Sweet 16, and Georgetown in the Elite 8. Which I think Texas matches up well with UNC with James on Hansbrough, Durant on Brandon Wright, and with Augustine on Lawson. The Tar Heels tend to struggle when ever they face someone that can score with them. (NC State,Winthrop, VTech,BC, Virginia). I think that this is one matchup Roy Williams does not want to see in the 3rd round. Georgetown only has 2 players in Green, and Hibbert who I dont think will cause much of a threat to the Horns, but if played at the right tempo the hoyas will win. Now with Texas A&M I do believe they have the best chance of making it to the final four because Louisville does not have enough Gaurd play, and their bigh man Padgett has been suspect all season. Now when A&M play's Memphis this will be the biggest 2 vs 3 mismatch in the tourny with A&M winning by atleast 10. Now they will possibly see a matchup with the Buckeye's again who seem to have a problem scoring. Watching them and Wisconsin was like watching paint dry. I believe the lack of offense is why they seem to look dominate defensive wise against the big 10 no disrespect to Oden. Plus I will take the Law above Conley anyday. Then Kansas wll get their rematch with Florida were I think this game will be an all out war. I really like Kansas chances of winning it all this season, but I will keep my fingers crossed that Durant, and the Horns will pull it off.
