Duke and Cal. Duke is still a favorite here. California has been pretty quiet this year. I still say Duke to the final four.
Texas A and M takes on Purdue. The Aggies have been pleasant surprise. Just like their Big 10 counterparts, Wisconsin, the Boilermakers were suppose to lose to a lower seed. People will say the same again today. But, Purdue is still pretty good. I say Purdue as a bracket buster, they win.

65 teams will get invited to the big dance. There are 31 conferences with automatic bids. That leaves 34 at-large bids. Most of those conferences will be won by a team that should get an at large bid. What causes some teams to be bumped off the bubble is those conferences that someone wins that wouldn't normally be invited.
