2009 NCAA Bracket Advice: Finals
| Semifinals | National Championship | Semifinals |
Louisville Mempthis | Louisville Pittsburgh | Pittsburgh North Carolina |
And cutting down the nets will be...
Louisville. The Cardinals have enough depth and athleticism to counter Memphis' swarming defenders and will met DeJuan Blair and Pittsburgh after they survive what should be an epic battle with North Carolina. From there, the Big East powers slug it out, but the Cardinals varied attack will take down the Panthers for the second time this season as Tournament MVP Terrence Williams helps Rick Pitino direct his second Bluegrass state team to a title in Louisville's 76-72 win.
