Andy Katz Reveals Dark Horse Teams That Could Make A Run To The Final Four

Here are the teams he picked:

• UCLA
• UConn
• Ole Miss
• BYU

Is back-to-back national champion UConn really a dark horse? Well, the Huskies have underperformed all year long and enter as a No. 8 seed with a Round of 64 game against No. 9 Oklahoma in the first round. 

BYU and Ole Miss are both a No. 6 seed while the UCLA Bruins are a No. 7 seed and face a tough Utah State squad in the first round. 

Here are the top four seeds in each of these teams' respective regions, respectively: 

• South Region, Ole Miss: Auburn, Michigan State, Iowa State, Texas A&M 
• West Region, UConn: Florida, St. John's, Texas Tech, Maryland
• East Region, BYU: Duke, Alabama, Wisconsin, Arizona 
• Midwest Region, UCLA: Houston, Tennessee, Kentucky, Purdue

BYU has a tricky matchup against VCU while Ole Miss takes on a North Carolina team that shot the lights out of the gym in the First Four game against San Diego State. 

Can one of these "dark horse" teams make a run? Well, UCLA and UConn have been to the Final Four within the last few years, and BYU and Ole Miss both have the potential to go on a deep run. 

It should be fascinating to see if one of Katz's "dark horse" contenders makes some noise this March.
