Predicting the College Basketball Top Conference Winners

College Basketball Conference Tournaments

When: March 7 – March 13

ACC Conference Tournament

Duke is favored. The Blue Devils should be, but at times this season, the Dookies have mentally fallen apart. The Blue Devils could fall apart in their conference tournament.

They could especially fall apart if they end up facing the Wake Forest Demon Deacons. Wake Forest has lost just 7 games this season. One of the losses was a 74-76 contest versus the Blue Devils.

Also, Alondes Williams might be the best player in the ACC. Williams averages over 19 points, over 5 assists, and over 6 rebounds per game.

Predicted Winner: Wake Forest Demon Deacons

Big East Conference Tournament

Jay Wright is a master at getting Villanova to peak in March. The Wildcats should secure yet another Big East Tournament as a favorite because, to be blunt, Nova is the best team in the conference.

No team in the Big East can rival Villanova’s starting five of Collin Gillespie, a National Player of the Year finalist, Brandon Slater, Justin Moore, Jermaine Samuels, and Eric Dixon.

Providence has the better record but in the first game, the second happens on March 1, Nova beat Providence 89-84. Wright’s squad wins another conference tournament.

Predicted Winner: Villanova Wildcats

Pac-12 Conference Tournament

The Pac-12 isn’t all that deep. UCLA, USC, and Arizona are the only teams that will garner bids to the NCAA Tournament.

Arizona beat UCLA 76-66 in the second game after losing to the Bruins in the first. Zona beat USC 72-63 in the first matchup. Tommy Lloyd’s squad is gearing up for a fantastic March, which should include a Pac-12 Conference Tournament title.

Predicted Winner: Arizona Wildcats

Big 12 Conference Tournament

Three teams in the Big 12 can win the conference tournament. Texas Tech, Kansas, and Baylor all have the ability to win the trophy.

The pick is Baylor. The reason to pick Baylor is that Scott Drew gets the Bears to play their best in March. Also, Kansas will be the chalk to win the tournament and Texas Tech doesn’t have as good of an offense as Baylor possesses. The Bears are the pick.

Predicted Winner: Baylor Bears

Big Ten Conference Tournament

When: March 9 – March 13

Michigan State and Michigan have fallen apart. Ohio State, Iowa and Wisconsin are good teams, but those three aren’t on Purdue’s level.

What makes Purdue so difficult to beat is that if you stop 7’ 4” center Zach Edey, you must contend with superstar guard Jaden Ivey. Also, Purdue’s other players know their roles. The Boilermakers should win the Big Ten Conference Tournament.

Predicted Winner: Purdue Boilermakers

SEC Conference Tournament

The SEC Tournament boils down to two of the top five teams in the nation, the Auburn Tigers and the Kentucky Wildcats. Auburn is expertly coached by Bruce Pearl and plays a total team game.

Two of the top players in the nation, big man Oscar Tshiebwe and point guard Sahvir Wheeler, play for John Calipari’s Kentucky team. Which team takes the conference tournament and grabs a 1-seed in the Big Dance?

It’s difficult to look past Kentucky. Tshiebwe and Wheeler are upper classmen, which means Calipari coaches his most mature team in a long time. Tshiebwe is unstoppable and we know Coach Cal gets Big Blue to show their best in March. Kentucky is the pick.

Predicted Winner: Kentucky Wildcats
