Sweet 16 picks

Season is about to sour for eight teams

At the end of action on Friday night USA time, the field of sixty-eight for the 2017 NCAA basketball season will be down to eight. Eight more teams will see their seasons end and be left to wonder ... what if?

Ok...here we go with the picks.

Midwest Region

Michigan (7) vs Oregon (3)
Could this be the exit point for an Oregon team that has survived despite injuries? Just might be.
Michigan by 3

Purdue (4) vs Kansas (1)
Purdue is a big chance to make it all Big 10 for the Final Four spot. Kansas has been under the radar it seems and the spotlight may cause tightness in this one.
Purdue by 4

West Region

West Virginia (4) vs Gonzaga (1)
The Zags will prove their legitimacy!
Gonzaga by 7

Xavier (11) vs Arizona (2)
This one may come down to the last four minutes and maybe Xavier pulls it off.
Xavier by 2

South Region

Butler (4) vs North Carolina (1)
The Tarheels are on a mission!
Carolina by 8

UCLA (3) vs Kentucky (2)
Pappa Ball will have one more reason to boast!
UCLA by 2

East Region

South Carolina (7) vs Baylor (3)
The Gamecocks to move on...

Wisconsin (8) vs Florida (4)
The Badgers again in what's becoming a post season staple in March
