I saw several panels of so-called experts giving their predictions for the tourney. I was surprised to see how many are taking Louisville over KU to advance to Final Four.

I haven't followed Louisville much this year, but we're getting no respect - which I think is GREAT !

Anything can happen, but we'd be favored if the game were held today on a neutral court. If we see them in KC, all the better.

We got into a few FF's yesterday. On Around the Horn I think all of them had us in their FF's.

CBS Sports picked KU to go all the way!

Keep in mind that the "experts" are also "entertainers". As part of the entertainment, it makes sense to "pick" a variety of scenarios. If everyone agreed that Louisville was going out in the first round, they'd lose a bunch of viewers. Frankly, the whole 3 days between selection Sunday and the first games on Thursday (no I don't count the play-in games) is just a prolonged and fairly annoying pre-game show.
