NCAA Men’s Final Four Preview

KELSEY PHARIS

The Final Four for the National Collegiate Athletic Association Tournament starts this Sat. April, 4 as the top four teams in the nation go on to play each other in hope of being able to make it to the championship game on Mon. April, 6.

Top seeded teams such as No. 1 undefeated Kentucky, No. 1 Wisconsin and No. 1 Duke makeup of this seasons Final Four teams alonPrintg with No. 7 Michigan State.

Michigan State has to play Duke with their six foot 11 inch freshman Jahlil Okafor and seven foot junior Marshall Plumlee. Although Michigan State is a good team, they do not have the size down low to compete on the same level with the Duke Blue Devils.

Along with their superior size, Duke also arguably has the best coach in the game of college basketball ever. Granted the coach does not determine the outcome of the game, but it sure does help having somebody like Coach Krzyzewski on the bench.

The Kentucky versus Wisconsin game will be one of the most anticipated games as many believe that Wisconsin is the only team that could end the winning streak.

With Kentucky coming off a close win against the Noter Dame Fighting Irish, it is hard to tell if they will come back with an unwavering passion to win or be skeptical of their ability to play against good teams.

However, Wisconsin won their last game against No. 2 seed Arizona 85-78. They will undoubtedly be able to come into the game against Kentucky with a much needed intensity.
