Chalk?

Well....from 65 down to 4. The 2008 NCAA Tournament does have a first. For the first time, all four #1 seeds have made it to the Final Four. And only one game was close.

The Cinderalla team, Davidson, lost its glass slipper. But not without a fight. Behind Stephen Curry, Davidson made a run to the Elite Eight, and was a 3-point shot from making the Final Four.

Next weekend sets up for some great games. UCLA will face Memphis, while Kansas takes on North Carolina.

UCLA matches up really well with Memphis as they have the long, athletic bodies to go with the length that Memphis showed on Sunday. Kevin Love with give Dorsey the same match-up problems that Oden did last year. Here is where the experience of the past two years will help UCLA. And where the free throw troubles of Memphis will finally catch up with them. The pressure of being in the Final Four for the first time will get inside of the head of the Memphis players. UCLA prevails.

The Kansas-North Carolina game is much harder to predict. Kansas will be able to run with North Carolina but should they try is the question. With a healthy Ty Lawson, North Carolina runs better than any team in the country and Tyler Hansborough seems determined to win a championship. Kansas will be playing such freedom after finally advancing to a Final Four. Coach Bill Self looked ABSOLUTELY relieved once the final horn sounded. I think North Carolina will run a little better that Kansas and set up my Championship game prediction, UCLA-North Carolina.

But this first time of having all #1 seeds will produce some magical moments. UCLA will win the title. Chalk though? I'm still having trouble accepting that.
