Could it happen this year, the next Cinderella team to win the NCAA
Thinking of the past when Jimmy Valvano of NC State won the NCAA championship in 1983. Could it happen again, either Houston, better yet UCLA ? If not, if Gonzaga wins it all, will this be their first NCAA title ?

Hmmm, Houston and UCLA Cinderellas? Certainly not Houston and UCLA is a strong program. When I think of Cinderella I think FGCU or something.

Houston was very highly ranked, so on that I agree. UCLA winning as a play-in team even with the strong history and name would deserve the slipper in my book. I think we're about to find that UCLA benefit from an over-rated Big Ten and SEC. Iona gave Alabama trouble, morreso than did Maryland. UCLA beat ALA, Mich St. and Michigan. If they give Gonzaga a game, let alone win, they should take the COY trophy out of Howard's office and send it to Cronin.

Looks like Big 10 was way overrated
