The Quick Contrarian
Answering his recent mail, Grant Wahl finds five Top 25 teams vulnerable in the first round: Cincy, NC State, Arizona, Memphis and Southern Illinois.--Memphis is overrated, but after being upset by St. Louis in the Conference USA Tournament, they'll win at least one game in the NCAA Tournament.
--Arizona doesn't play as a team, but the 'Cats have too many weapons to go down early. Iguodala wants a showcase for NBA talent scouts and Frye dominates smaller opponents.
NC State might lose. Either way, two ACC teams won't get past the first round. Your best guesses?
