I'm just gonna go with UCLA over George Mason. But it's up for grabs, who at the beginning of the year or even the tournament would have thought these would be the four teams in the final four. Thats why this is the best tournament in the world!!!

I had Kansas and Uconn in it UConn winning it... Don't ask me why Kansas but after this tournament anybody you pick really isn't that stupid of a pick. I think it comes down to who wins the UCLA-LSU matchup.

What a tournament this has been.  I've never seen so many close games.  Florida over George Mason- Florida is just to athletic for GM, GM's magical run will come to an end.  But you have to give it them, no one expected them to be in the tournament, and they beat some of the best.

LSU over UCLA- Lsu has it all.  Post play, outside shooting, defense, and they can play anybody's style of play, and they play very aggressive and physical.  Their underclassmen are looking more like seniors who have been here before.

LSU over Florida- This game will be based around defense, I think Thomas and "Big Baby" will shut down Noah and the Gators.  That's why i like LSU in this one.

George Mason is gonna continue their cinderella story and win it all. They hear everyone doubting them and they use that as fuel on the court. GM OVER UCLA in the ship.

Let's get real now.  I'll give GM credit for beating some of the best, but I just can't believe what is happening with them.  They're magical run will end Saturday night, and you know what?  They won't even care because they've competed and will be happy with the history that they've made.

Weren't people saying lets get real with them beating mich st, weren't they saying good run but its gonna end with the north carolina game, they were saying great job and nice story but its gonna end before they played uconn, they've shown me what they can do so i think it is real. George Mason all the way!

If Florida's guards come to play they should win, but who knows with their guards. 

Florida vs. UCLA.................Florida by double digits.

I had BC vs Duke for my championship....nice little rematch with BC winning it all. A lot of good those picks did me.

They can do it, but their magical run will end against Florida.

I believe Uconn is still one of the best teams in the country.  If George Mason played them 50 times, Uconn would win 48 of them.  But congrats to GM, Im rooting for them.  But I believe it's gonna end on Saturday.

I really don't see why George Mason can't keep the run going. They have and inside game and they can shoot the three.  They also play stellar defense, ranked in the top 5 in defense during the year and as long as they shut down Noah and Brewer they'll move on.  I also like LSU over UCLA, LSU has got to be one of the most athetic teams out there and Thomas will probaly have like 6 alley-oops again.  And Glen "Big Baby" Davis will also pop another three haha.

What a boring matchup for a national championship. Definetly not what the media wanted. Only interesting matchup will be Noah goin up against Hollins.
