It's hard for me to believe in Wichita State, even though they are undeniably good. They just don't play the level of competition as the teams in the big conferences. I am not even going to hazard a guess but I don't think it will be them. (Besides, my prediction history is horrible. Just listen to what I predict and bet the other way).
