Experts' Mid-season Final Four Picks

Our experts have compiled stats, and have come up with their mid-season Final Four picks.


Arizona, after their loss to California, is the only team that all three experts included in their Final Four.  Wichita State, one of the last two undefeated teams in the country, only has one expert supporting them.  Joe Smeltzer included them because "They're good.".

Ryan Stewart was the only one not to include the other last unbeaten, Syracuse, claiming "That Jim Boheim can't coach in the tournament." Ryan also added " Their 2-3 zone won't work against good coaches.  And that's why Duke put up 90 on them."

Both Bradley and Ryan Stewart included the 19-2 Florida Gators.  Joe Smeltzer wouldn't budge on why he didn't like Florida in the Final Four, saying that "We have different opinions.".

While Ryan Stewart and Joe Smeltzer both had Michigan State in the Final Four, Bradley Stewart didn't.  When asked about it he said "Michigan State is definitely a Final Four team, but I think Michigan State, after losing two out of their last three games, hasn't proven themselves fully yet. But, I would have them the next team on that list, along with Duke."  

Kansas, along with Wichita State, was picked only once.
