It seems like every year there are a couple powerhouse teams that fly into the Sweet 16 under the radar, mix it up with power conference teams and more than hold their own. This may be a record season as five teams outside of the top six power conferences will do battle. One of those teams is BYU, who arguably has the highest impact player in the tournament in Jimmer Fredette. While Kemba Walker has carried the young UConn Huskies, Fredette has done even more for BYU and with a close game expected, having him in your camp to knock down some big shots late is the place to be. It has been a good season for the Gators and they have handled a couple soft touches to get here, but they will be severely challenged in this one. BYU lost just four games all year, two of which were to New Mexico, who apparently has their number. This is a live dog with a fearless scorer down the stretch. Play BYU and the points.
