I would not be surprised to see Wichita State fall in their first game. While I think they deserve a number one seed for going 34-0, they have not played anyone this season. Their best wins came at SLU and against UT, in Wichita. These games were on December 1 and 14, respectively. Yes, they made a run to the Final Four last season; yes, they are returning the same squad. But, prior to losing to Louisville, they only played one good team in the tournament (tOSU). Remember, they were lucky enough to draw a Pitt team that always under-performs in the tournament; a Gonzaga team that played no one last season; La Salle in the Sweet 16; then they beat a good tOSU team.
I expect Kentucky to beat K-State, since the game is away from Bramlege; and, I expect Kentucky to take the Shockers behind the woodshed.
