1. I think it's OK St. and UConn
Oklahoma State is the most tested of the final four team and it's defense will decide the game. Although Duke is in the Fianl 4, it's not one of their best teams and UConn is the complete package; the best team in the nation on paper and despite some easy games they will escape the Blue Devils.

Of course, this is only my opinion.

2. UConn/OK State
My bracket is a mess, but I did accurately predict the 4 Elite 8 games (Although not from the beginning).

I like OK State to take the first game. I love Georgia Tech and their depth, but I think the Cowboys are just a little tougher on the inside. However, GA Tech has beaten UConn and Duke, so you can't count them out.

Connecticut should win the second semifinal. The way Ben Gordon and Rashad Anderson have been playing offensively, I think they're very hard to beat. They've also got 4 very good big men in Okafor, Boone, Villanueva, and Armstrong. If Williams or Randolph gets in foul trouble for Duke, it could spell trouble for Duke.

3. I like your analysis
My bracket is a mess as well but I did have UConn/Duke meeting in one half of the final 4.
