James Madison has shades of last season’s Florida Atlantic team that made the Final Four and other dangerous double-digit seeds to watch in your bracket.
with a run for the ages. Last year, the Florida Atlantic Owls went on a magical four-game run to the Final Four, going from a 31-win mid-major team few knew much about to the stars of March. Meanwhile, the No. 15 seed Princeton Tigers rolled to the Sweet 16. Is there another sleeper that might capture the hearts of men’s college basketball fans this March?
Plus, the draw is a favorable one. The Saint Mary’s Gaels are an excellent team, but certainly won’t overwhelm the Antelopes athletically. A potential second-round date with the Alabama Crimson Tide isn’t that scary either with how the Tide played down the stretch. UAB needed the American’s automatic bid to go dancing but could make some noise now that it’s in the field. The Blazers boast terrific size and athleticism across the point, starting with dynamic point guard Eric Gaines and flowing through Andy Kennedy’s entire roster. Most importantly, the Blazers have the size and depth in the frontcourt to try to slow down San Diego State star big man Jaedon LeDee, one of the most imposing post presences in the country.
