I think there are several who are capable. If I had to pick right now, I'd go with North Carolina. They have everything you need, guard play and inside guys too. What say you?

UCLA.
UNC
It would be cool if they played UNC in the Final too.
Hate to say it but KU is playing as well as anyone right now but that doesn't been squat given that 3-4 weeks from now is when it really counts. Right now I'd probably pick Villanova to repeat. For a darkhorse I'd pick West Virginia.
West Virginia is interesting. They damn near lost today.
UCLA can be it when they are on. That game against CU wa ridiculous. Also hate saying it but Oregon. An he that good as well. Going with the PAC this year.
When they play their "A" game, I don't think anyone in the country can beat UCLA. But I tend not to trust teams that win with their offense since O will slump for a night. Not that UCLA's defense is bad, but it's only good rather than elite.

Someone has to beat the champs.

beware the habu
This has been said soooo many times. It usually results in tears on the copy of the office tourney pick sheet.
The blue bloods - UNC, KY, KS, and UCLA might walk away with the 1 seeds this year. But I wouldn't count out a Nova, Virginia, or even Dook stealing the trophy.
Villanova
Wow Kansas, Wtf are you doing? UNC didn't help themselves either.
Oklahoma was up 12, and now they're on the verge of getting blown out. In about 7 minutes.
Yeah crazy. Mason reminds me of Chris Paul, a little smaller, dude can ball though. They turned it on but don't make a habit of that. Atmosphere is way different in the tournament.
North Carolina is looking pretty damn salty and Miami is pretty good.
KU probably still a 1-seed in the Dance. But now it's actually a question.
Also, TCU probably can't get on the right side of the Bubble to get an at-large. If they lose a conference tourney game, they're at 15 losses. You don't get an at-large with 15 losses.

Love how wide open it is these days. As much as I hate to say it... ...I don't think there's a better team than UNC right now. With that said, if Arizona gets a 1 and can make it to FF - they're playing home games. For the conference, I wouldn't mind that.
KU looks great, but I never bet on KU - they will fold. UCLA looks great, but I'm not betting on Alford. Kentucky looks great too.
With all that said, every year, my pick is of course, Duke. And don't let your hatred get in the way - don't sleep on them.

It's not gonna happen since it hasn't happened in over 30 years (1985 Big East), but the Pac-12 has a legitimate shot at putting 3 teams into the Final Four with Oregon, UCLA and Arizona. Every one of those teams has the size and firepower to go all the way.
Grayson has to pick it up for them to win imho. Also, they need to fix issues on D as well. Giles needs to continue to make strides too.
