It’s tradition around here to release our “Magic Eight” list of the teams we believe could win the NCAA tournament. We typically release it about a month or two away from the Final Four and we exclude two teams from the top eight of the AP poll and include one team from outside the top 15. A couple things about that: I’m not really into the whole tradition thing, so this will be coming out after the conference tournaments are over and we have a better idea of who each of the top teams are.
