First Round: No. 6 North Carolina Tar Heels vs. No. 11 VCU Rams. This is a scary game for the Tar Heels. Without Caleb Wilson, they have a lower ceiling. North Carolina is better and should win. But VCU is a fair upset pick here. Winner: North Carolina. Second Round: No. 3 Illinois vs. No. 6 North Carolina. Illinois just has too many scorers. Winner: Illinois. (ESPN)
