I don't think that Arkansas deserved to be in the tournament based on their resume, but it's undeniable that they're one of the hottest teams in the nation at the moment. Unlike Arizona, Stan Heath has finally gotten this team to play as a cohesive unit instead of a roster of individuals. I'm also not really that confident in Southern Cal after the way Oregon absolutely dominated them in the Pac-10 championship. With about ten minutes left in the game, Oregon had more than doubled the score on USC. With that said, I still picked Southern Cal in this game out of principle. I didn't think at the time, and I still don't think, that Arkansas deserves to be in it, yet with all the politics aside, I can still easily see an upset happening.
