Should be a great Final Four - the other 2 from outside the SEC are tough as heck, too.
Alabama and Tennessee were really good but had some flaws that needed to get the right matchups to move on and they didn't. Good tournament for the league so far. Great runs by Arkansas and Ole Miss and Kentucky went chalk.

Based just on their margins of victory during the tournament and the eye test, it would appear that Houston and Duke are the two best teams in the country.

Yep. The best 4 teams by far made it. Should be some good tv Saturday.

All SEC final four would’ve been nice but this sets up better. Two best teams in the SEC and the two best team outside of the conference.
Two wars Saturday leading to a hell of a matchup Monday.

If Duke takes Houston's physicality and grown arse man defense in stride then it's going to tough to pick against them on Monday. That's kind of the last thing I'm not completely sold on with them.

I guess we've reached the point where Florida and Auburn fans are no longer rooting for the SEC.

Congrats AU and UF. I win 1300.00 if UF wins the tourney, so I will be pulling for them

Yep - and our game with them was pretty physical (difference was Zona had a guy willingly taking and making contested shots in Love and we did not).
But Houston is a different level. I'm just not sure Houston can score. They are not a long team and don't space the floor all that well. They are going to have a tough time getting shots. Cryer, Uzan and Sharpe are going to have to go nuclear.

I think all 4 teams deserve to be there. It is a shame Auburn & Florida had to be on the same side of the bracket: The prospect of an all SEC championship game would have been great.
I picked Florida to win it all before the tourney started and it looks like they are slightly favored right now in the match up although I think Auburn is playing better basketball ATM.

Florida favored by 3 and Duke by 4 1/2

Probably seems about right. If Broome is pretty clearly healthy I would think that might drop down to -2 or -2.5. Wouldn't be surprised if Duke rose to 5 or so.
Either way, those numbers point to 2 really close, competitive games.

I have nothing against UF. Will be rooting for them to win it all if they beat us.
