After a wild season of college basketball, during which the AP Top 10 combined for 74 losses, more than any other year, ESPN's expert picks for the 2016 NCAA Tournament are startlingly uniform.
Of the 27 experts on ESPN's panel, 17 picked Michigan State to cut down the nets in Houston, with 9 opting for Kansas and just one, Jeff Goodman, picking Kentucky.
The group also submitted picks for the Final Four. Generally, these were a little more diverse; 20% of the selections were teams seeded third or lower. The open thinking ended in the Midwest region, where 26 of 27 experts picked Michigan State to advance to the Final Four, and only Cory Alexander, who played college basketball at UVA, picked Virginia.
