NCAA Basketball Tournament Predictions

Yesterday I revealed my predictions for the East and West region semi-final games. Today let’s “pick wrong,” regarding games in the South and Midwest regions.

On Thursday night in the South region, I will go with favored Florida to win vs UCLA by 7 points. Florida is a four and a half point favorite.

I predict their opponent in the regional final on Saturday will be upstart Dayton, which will pull a third straight upset, winning as a 3 point underdog vs Stanford.

On Friday night in the Midwest region, look for Louisville to win a very close game vs intrastate rival Kentucky.

The defending national champion, Louisville Cardinals will play Michigan in the regional finals.

If that happens and I predict it will as I think Michigan will win by 6 points vs Tennessee, the regional final on Sunday will be a rematch of last year’s tournament championship game.

Louisville won that contest and stay tuned here for our predictions, a day before, on the regional final games this Saturday and Sunday.
