Prediction: Connecticut

Semifinals
3/11- (5) Memphis vs (1) SMU- 3:00, ESPN2: Dedric Lawson will keep the Tigers in this game, but the Mustangs will pull away late.
Prediction: SMU

3/11- (6) Connecticut vs (2) Cincinnati- 5:00, ESPN2: This should be a fun game. The Bearcats find a way to keep Jalen Adams in check and move on to a rematch with the Stangs.
Prediction: Cincinnati

 Championship
3/12- (2) Cincinnati vs (1) SMU- 3:15, ESPN: This should be a great championship game between the conferences best two teams. The winner of this game will likely get a 4 or 5 seed and the loser will be in the field regardless. Give me the Bearcats to take this one.
