Why Minnesota will win: The Cardinals team that showed up against Duke for the final eight minutes shows up for a longer stretch. Richard Pitino’s bunch will be especially hamstrung inside if Matz Stockman can’t play.No. 3 LSU vs. No. 14 Yale Why LSU will win: Sophomore Tremont Waters runs the offense with passing and scoring and is a ballhawk defender for a deep, balanced team that scores and rebounds. Plus, the Tigers were 9-0 in SEC road games.
Why Bradley will win: Slower pace aside , there’s a blitz of mojo among a group that won nine of 11 games to take its first conference tournament title since 1988.East Region, JacksonvilleWhy Maryland will win: The Terrapins were among the best in the Big Ten in points allowed, blocks, defensive rebounding, field goal percentage allowed. Offensively, junior guard Anthony Cowan and sophomore forward Bruno Fernando provide outside-inside punch.
Why Murray State will win: The Mustangs have Howard, but the Racers have projected top-five draft pick Ja Morant . His dunks have drawn most of the headlines, but he’s an even better distributor, posting a whopping 10 assists per game. Why Kentucky will win: This isn’t your typical John Calipari squad, but it is still talented. Sophomore P.J. Washington , freshman Tyler Herro , freshman Keldon Johnson and grad Reid Travis average double figures, and Calipari’s rotation goes nine deep. Kentucky improved as the season progressed, which mirrored freshman guard Ashton Hagans growth as a distributor and scorer.
