Elite 8

Midwest

1 Louisville vs 2 Duke

Winner: Louisville

Why: Duke is #234 in the country at offensive rebounding. Indiana should win by a comfortable margin.

West

1 Gonzaga vs 2 Ohio State

Winner: Gonzaga

Why: Ohio State ranks in the bottom 50% of the nation in free throw percentage. Gonzaga should survive to the Final 4 but don’t be surprised if the buckeyes pull off the upset

South

1 Kansas vs 3 Florida

Winner:Kansas

Why: The gators also rank in the bottom 50 percent of all teams in free throw shooting. Are we seeing a common theme. This is the most intriguing elite 8 match-up because the teams are so close it could be a coin flip I think it will come down to the charity stripe and that is where the gators will fall.
