VIDEO: Predicting Sunday’s Elite Eight Matchups

Matt Ufford and Dan Rubenstein already made their predictions for Saturday’s Elite Eight matchups, so now it’s time to look at Sunday’s two games. Matt is out on assignment, but never fear, Dan was kind enough to hang around and analyze Baylor vs. Kentucky and Kansas vs. North Carolina, offering his picks for who will advance to the Final Four:

Standard disclaimer: These NCAA Tournament predictions are for entertainment purposes only. Guessing what will happen during these games is really hard, you guys, and Baylor, UNC, Kansas and Kentucky are all really good teams. If you do leave a comment, constructive criticism/encouragement is preferred.
