The College Basketball season is finally winding down. This weekend concludes the spectacular season that could get even better. The Final Four includes Florida, UConn, Wisconsin, and Kentucky. Can UConn or Kentucky complete their Cinderella story to top off the season. The Semi Finals will be played on Saturday followed by the National Championship on Monday.<\/p>\n
(8) Kentucky vs. (2) Wisconsin
\nKentucky comes into this game with arguably the best talent in the country, however their youth has been their downfall this year. Currently they are playing great basketball, and with their talent it will be very hard for Wisconsin to win. On the other hand, Wisconsin plays great team basketball and is led by their center, Frank Kaminsky.<\/p>\n
Prediction: Kentucky’s talent will be the difference in this one and will pull it out 71-67.<\/p>\n
(1) Florida vs. (7) UConn
\nFlorida came into the tournament with fire as the favorite to win the tournament, while UConn, led by their back court phenom Shabazz Napier, came in to this tournament projected to lose to Iowa State. However I predict that UConn will be so wet from long range that they will put out Florida’s flame.<\/p>\n
Prediction: Shabazz will lead UConn to a victory, 67-66.<\/p>\n
