Marquee players: Tyler Hansbrough (UNC), Wayne Ellington (UNC), Ty Lawson (UNC), Eric Gordon (IU), D.J. White (IU), Luke Harangody (Notre Dame), Chris Lofton (Tennessee), Tyler Smith (Tennessee), Terrance Williams (Louisville), Blake Griffin (Oklahoma), Derrick Low (Washington State), Mike Green (Butler), Demetric Bennett (South Alabama)

Best chance for an upset
: St. Joseph’s over Oklahoma – Phil Martelli’s club already owns two wins over Xavier, beat Villanova and played Gonzaga tough early in the season. Honorable mention: South Alabama over Butler – Butler can’t be pleased with their seeding or the fact that they’ll be facing the Jaguars in Birmingham.

Dark horse to make it San Antonio: Louisville – The Cardinals were a top ten team to start the season and Rick Pitino is no stranger to making a Final Four run. If, and this is a huge if, Louisville can get consistency from Edgar Sosa, Jerry Smith and Andre McGee, their frontcourt is deep enough to play with anybody.
