Pitt, G-Town(very underrated dangerous team),Marquette,Notre Dame are all pretty good and will likely be represented in the Elite Eight with a team or two...

I'll be the first to say that, sadly, Pitt will not be in the Elite 8...

Yeah,
Pitt has had a lot of formidable teams that come up short every year. After about 3 years of gettin burnt by them I've finally learned. Then again, you can't always play trends... Florida made it to the NCAA finals in 2000 (they lost to Mich St. and Mateen Cleaves), and since then they choked every year up to last year. So what I'm gettin at is perennial chokers like Pitt and Gonzaga are big risks to take no matter how good their team looks like on paper.

On the flip side- You can take teams like Michigan State, who seem weak, but ALWAYS SHOW UP IN MARCH!!!!

With that bein said- The University of Nevada Wolfpack, and thei conference rival: New Mexico State are gonna represent the Wac very strong in the dance this year.
