1. Louisville Cardinals (29-5) – After winning the Big East title, there really is little doubt that the Cards have one of the best teams in America. They only had one lousy run of games in the middle of the Big East season, but in the end, they were definitively the best outfit in the conference this year, and that has to strike fear in the eyes of the rest of the land going into the NCAA Tournament.

2. Gonzaga Bulldogs (31-2) – There is no question that this is the best team that Head Coach Mark Few has ever had in Spokane. F Kelly Olynyk might legitimately be a National Player of the Year winner, and the depth that this club has built has been flat out awesome. However, can Gonzaga beat the big boys? That's the real question that has to be asked as we head into the dance.

3. Indiana Hoosiers (27-6) – The time is here for F Cody Zeller, G Victor Oladipo and the Hoosiers to prove that they are legit. They have gone on the road and picked up more big time victories this year than any team in the land, but they crashed out of the Big Ten Tournament far too prematurely, and they definitely didn't look as good down the stretch as they did at the outset of the year.

4. Duke Blue Devils (27-5) – With F Ryan Kelly in the lineup, the Blue Devils have been beaten exactly one time this entire season. They were knocked off by Maryland in an emotional game in the ACC Tournament. Kelly is knocking down shots from all over the place, and he is a matchup nightmare for anyone that tries to guard him. This is still a team that could be cutting down the nets en route to the Final Four.

5. Kansas Jayhawks (29-5) – G Ben McLemore is playing great basketball right now, but the key to beating the Jayhawks is going to be finding a way to get through C Jeff Withey. If Withey starts to dominate in the paint, this becomes one of the top teams in the land and one that could cut down the nets this year at the Final Four. The Jayhawks won the Big XII Tournament without much in the way of dramatics.

6. Ohio State Buckeyes (26-7) – The Buckeyes won the Big Ten title this year by going on a great run against some of the best teams in the land. We have seen teams go on remarkable runs though, only to ultimately fall short in the NCAA Tournament after looking incredibly tired. Could Ohio State be the next one of these teams to fall from the graces? We'll have to see.

7. New Mexico Lobos (29-5) – The Mountain West champs could be a Final Four contender this year. New Mexico is the definition of royalty right now in the MWC. Not only did the team win the regular season title, but it stormed through Las Vegas as well. Head Coach Steve Alford has himself one of the few teams from the West Coast that you really wouldn't want to mess with.

8. Georgetown Hoyas (25-6) – The Hoyas went on a massive winning streak towards the end of the regular season, and they did so without F Greg Whittington in the lineup. Two wins over Syracuse were nice, but this rivalry ended in bitter fashion for G-Town, as it was beaten in overtime in the Big East Tournament. Still, F Otto Porter is one of the best players in the nation, and he is going to have the chance to carry this team in the NCAA Tournament.

9. Syracuse Orange (26-9) – Head Coach Jim Boeheim has been rumored to be retiring at the end of the year, and if he does, it will be the end of a tremendous Hall of Fame coaching career in the Empire State. The end of the regular season was trying for the 'Cuse, but in the end, getting to the Big East Tournament Final was a great accomplishment for a team that could make a big run in March Madness.

10. Florida Gators (26-7) – The Gators have to be a questionable team right now. They couldn't win the SEC Tournament in spite of the fact that they were favored by double digits in all three of the games, and they really can't use injuries as an excuse any longer. The truth of the matter is that Head Coach Billy Donovan doesn't have the deepest team on the planet, and the club is only as strong as its top six or seven players turns out to be.

11. Michigan State Spartans (25-8) – The Spartans just weren't good enough to get the job done in the Big Ten Tournament, but there really is no shame in that. This is a flat out awesome conference with a ton of big time teams it. We know better not to count out Head Coach Tom Izzo's team this time of year.

12. Michigan Wolverines (26-7) – Big Blue is in a lot of trouble right now. F Glenn Robinson III had a terrible end to his season, and he is going to need to be a heck of a lot better in the dance for this team to succeed. Michigan has the guards to go all the way, but it needs to play better than it did down the stretch and in the Big Ten Tournament to succeed.

13. Saint Louis Billikens (26-6) – The Billikens are still playing with heavy hearts, as they are playing for their departed Head Coach Rick Majerus. The team did well in the A-10 Tournament, running right through the gauntlet of teams. St. Louis already has three wins over Butler and two over VCU this year, and if you can beat those teams, you can beat anyone in the game.

14. Kansas State Wildcats (27-7) – G Rodney McGruder and G Angel Rodriguez took the Wildcats to the Big XII Tournament Final, but what we have seen, they just haven't had the horses to compete with Kansas this year. If KSU can't take down the Jayhawks, it isn't going to be able to beat the big boys in the dance either.

15. Oklahoma State Cowboys (24-8) – The Pokes have quietly won some big time games this year. This is a team that could run the table in the dance, but it's a team that could be one and done as well. The inconsistencies have been mind-boggling. That being said, the boys from Stillwater need to run and gun if they are going to stay alive.

16. Arizona Wildcats (25-7) – We still have a lot of confidence in the Wildcats right now. They are one of those teams with G Mark Lyons that could ultimately be in the Elite 8 or even the Final Four. However, we have seen teams like Oregon and UCLA give the Cats trouble all season long. Talent? Absolutely. Resolve to win in the dance? Maybe not so much.

17. Wisconsin Badgers (23-12) – The Badgers made it through a remarkable run in the Big Ten Tournament, knocking off both Michigan and Indiana. Two wins against the Hoosiers are the highlight of this resume, but the offense just isn't there for Head Coach Bo Ryan and the club in all likelihood to make it through the NCAA Tournament.

18. Marquette Golden Eagles (23-8) – There aren't many teams in America that have overachieved more than the Golden Eagles. We don't really think that the talent is here for Marquette, yet this team finished with a share of the Big East regular season title under its belt. The club didn't do all that well in the Big East Tournament, which could be a bad omen for the NCAA Tournament.

19. Pittsburgh Panthers (24-8) – The Panthers played in the CBI last year, and winning that tournament was part of the key to get this team playing at a high level this year. Pittsburgh didn't last long at Madison Square Garden, but not exerting itself could prove to be helpful next week in the dance.

20. UNLV Runnin' Rebels (25-9) – UNLV made it all the way to the Mountain West finale, and that was a huge bump for a team that was probably stuck in the middle of the bracket prior to this. F Anthony Bennett and the crew could be in for a fantastic March.

21. Notre Dame Fighting Irish (25-9) – Hideous green jerseys aside, the Fighting Irish played pretty darn well in the Big East Tournament. This has been a tale of two seasons. For part of the season, Notre Dame was a great offensive team and a terrible defensive team. For the second part of the campaign, the Irish had no offense and had to rely upon their defense. Which team will show up for March Madness?

22. Oregon Ducks (26-8) – The Ducks won the Pac-12 title this year, and that's really making up for a team that slacked so badly down the stretch of the campaign. Oregon has a lot of talent, but G Dominic Artis is going to need to be a heck of a lot better than he has been since coming back from his injury in the middle of the conference season.

23. North Carolina Tar Heels (24-9) – Getting to the ACC Tournament Final was a huge step in the right direction for the Tar Heels. This is a good team that is awfully young, and it has the guard play to make it to the Final Four. Head Coach Roy Williams knows what he is doing, and he knows that this is a team that is overmatched in terms of talent. Still, F James Michael McAdoo has the ability to bring this team to a very high level.

24. Memphis Tigers (30-4) – The Tigers won Conference USA this year, though it was a struggle to get to this point. This was a team that put together a great season with a ton of victories. However, most of those wins came against lousy teams. The Tigers need to prove that they can play with the big boys, and they have a slew of huge games in front of them.

25. Butler Bulldogs (26-8) – The Bulldogs have been the sweetheart of NCAA Tournaments in the past, and they could be darlings once again in this one. G Rotnei Clarke might prove to be the difference maker for this team, one that could be set to get to the Final Four with a little bit of that magic that we have come to know and love about this team.
