2010 NCAA National Champion: KENTUCKY

I know it's crazy to have ND make the F4, but I have beef with all the teams ahead of them in that region. Duke (1) just hasn't had it in the Dance since the middle of the last decade; Villanova (2) has played poorly for the last two weeks and are probably over-seeded; Baylor (3) doesn't have the big wins that I'd look for for a team to go deep; Purdue (4) is without its best player and I have Texas A&M (5) losing in the first round in the classic 12/5 upset. So it's not that I love ND, it's just I don't like anyone ahead of them very much.
