This week was the start to NCAA basketball and there are so high hopes for some teams that are ranked. The top 25 have begun to play the cupcakes just to get some cheap and easy wins, which help teams, make the tournament. There are some teams like UCLA and UNC who have top high school players all over their team and even have top recruits sitting on the bench because there isn't enough room to play all them. All the teams have to same goal right now and it's to make the tournament and look forward into playing in March for the title. Last year was an exciting year and the championship game was memorable and this year it can only get better. This year there are some new rules that were Incorporated and the major one, is that the three point line was moved back a whole foot. It may not seem like a big deal, but a foot is a foot and the farther back the line is the worse percentage the players have to make the basket. Therefore, these tall guys who are average shooters won't be taking those three pointers that they were used to taking and they will have settle with shots that are higher percentage. Last years champs the Kansas Jayhawks lost their whole starting five and aren't likely to repeat because of it. Then the losers of the championship game, Memphis Tigers, lost key guys to last year's team and got top recruits and should be average, but probably won't make the final four again. The season is still young and teams just began their way to making the NCAA tournament, and this year should be an exciting one with all these new freshman and returning guys.
What four teams will make it to the final four and who will be the winner of the NCAA tournament?

I think the Final Four will be UNC, Connecticut, Louisville and Florida. I believe Florida will end up winning the whole tournament.
