Let's go dancin'

The 2011 NCAA Men's Basketball tournament is just around the corner for us. I watch a decent amount of the Big East and SEC due to ties in and around and I can't decide who will win this year's championship.

Let us evaluate a few:

Ohio State: Decent year with Sullinger and some shooters to take the Big Ten, but are they reliable in the close games?

Pittsburgh: An early exit in the Big East tourney will give the Panthers plenty of time to rest their sea legs.

Duke: Duke lost the regular season title to the Heels but should be ready to return to the Final Four.

Kansas: A yes, finally a team that I can pull for. But will they fall to another Northern Illinois-esque team in an early round?

Notre Dame: UK stuffed the Irish in early December, but now the team is playing like they want it.

Connecticut: Is this a Big East party and some wannabe's? Kemba Walker has the 'it', but will the Huskies Big East tourney run wear the boys out?

Texas: Said to have an excellent defense, but can the team travel out of Texas without four-wheel drive?

BYU: This team has a guy that will score early, often, and even when the bus is bringing the team home after the game. Rhymes with glimmer and swimmer.

Purdue: Even without their star, other stars have become brighter and give this team reason to get excited.

My final four: Pitt, Purdue, Duke, and Kansas. Get up and down the floor, we got us a tournament to watch!
