Duke and Maryland. I think they are just too loaded on offense, plus recent history suggests Danowski and Tillman each know how to get to the Final Four consistently.

Next I'd go Denver if they get TD. They sure looked rough yesterday against Utah but they were missing a few key guys and TD can mask issues. I think Matt Brown will have that offense playing much better by season's end.

Undecided on fourth team. Leaning Virginia, they are so deep on offense and underrated on D when their guys are healthy. But I could be persuaded toward Cuse. I'd pick UNC but their goalie situation makes me nervous. Cuse clearly has the better netminder.

I think Loyola is another team not many people are talking about. They are so well coached. Not going to pick them (still think they could use an alpha attackman and not sure Lindley or Olmstead are it) but I won't be surprised if they are there at the end.

Cuse is a very good team and absolutely a Final Four contender. Not questioning that one iota. Just wanted to challenge the conventional wisdom that places them a clear cut above a team like Georgetown. It's not sacrilegious to say the two teams are about even.
