Toughest Region?

[BronxBombers71]

What do you think the toughest region is?


I would have to go with the East, which I am thrilled about since I have tickets to the sweet 16 and elite 8. Solid top to bottom. Probably has the weakest 3 seed of all the regions but Wash. St is a quality team.

I would have to agree with you Bronx. With Texas and USC prospectively playing in the 4/5 game. UNC and G'Town up top is really strong and then a really good Marquette team at the 8. The East is probably the strongest top to bottom.

However, just including the top few seeds i think the West is really strong. Kansas, UCLA, and PITT have all been ranked in the top 5 for a good portion of the season. Probably one of the best overall fields ive seen in a long time.

South tougher than the West, lol no way.

Look at the top of the South bracket. Virginia and Tennessee, those teams arent close to 4 or 5 seeds. Memphis hasnt played anyone all year, Texas A&M is the best #3 seed, there my pick to play Ohio St in the Elite 8. But I dont think that region is tougher than the West.

West has Kansas, UCLA, Pitt, So. Illinois, VTech and Duke. All top 6 seeds are much better then the South.

I rank them from the toughest to weakest:

East
West
Midwest
South

I think Ohio St deserved the overall number 1 seed and it seems to me they have the easiest road to the final four, dont see a problem with that.

East is the toughest IMO... hands down.
