No. 8 Virginia Tech vs. No. 9 Wichita State

Virginia Tech versus Wichita State will obviously be a match-up between two teams that are pretty even. Both programs are currently unranked, however the Hokies only have one loss against a decent Texas A&M. Not to mention, they only lost by three points to the Aggies.

Regardless, I wouldn’t expect either one of these teams to make it past the second round of the tournament. Kansas is too good of a team to get upset by either one of these schools.

Wichita State has had some success over the past four seasons in the NCAA Tournament, but a lot of those key players just graduated from the Shockers program.

If I had to guess, I would say Wichita State would knock off the Hokies on a neutral floor in March.

Next: No. 5 vs. No. 12
