I bolded the wins against potential or definite tournament teams. The first 3 were on neutral courts in the Great Alaska Shootout. Notice that it was 3 consecutive nights, and all teams were ranked at the time of the game.
They've got 5 guys averaging double figures and a 6th getting 9.5. They have one of the top 5 point guards in America in Nate Robinson.
RPI? 6.
SOS? 13.
Record? 19-3
Non conference RPI? 5
Non conf SOS? 18
Vs Top 100 RPI teams? 10-3
No bad losses, only to Gonzaga, Arizona and UCLA. UCLA isn't great, but they're talented and it was on the road. Every school in America (save Illinois) has a loss like that. The other 2 are top 15 teams.

this is hwy march madness is the BEST thing in college sports. Every conference is represented, anything can happen, im so excited I dont even really follow NCAA BBall becasue its hard with players leaving os much, but March i sthe best time for college sports no doubt
they're certainly better than the illini, but probably not n.c. or duke. just ask anyone in the universe.

id take wazz simply for the fact whoever wins is hardly ever expected to win, NC, Duke, ILLI all seem so obvious, itll be someone like WAZZ or like a Wake someone who has gone under the radar a lil more recently, except last year Conn was sorta favored so it wasnt a suprise but i dont think they were considerd shoeins for the finals.
