Basically those 5 teams, I feel comfortable making a leap of faith ( in regards to a deep run in the tournament if it started today). Everyone else I just can't seem to make that same leap of faith with.

I dont know why you would think that Texas, Kentucky, and Kansas are better than Syracuse or Villanova, especially when the level of Competition that Big East schools play is light years ahead of what Texas or Kentucky has to play.

Texas and Kansas have both proven they cannot beat the Syracuse 2-3 Zone in Recent years, this year would not be an exception because this years zone could be the best 2-3 Syracuse has ever played.
