Baylor vs. Arkansas - A throwback to the old SWC, Arkansas is in its first Elite 8 since making the title game in 1995. This is Baylor’s 3rd since 2010. Baylor’s win over Villanova was impressive as the Wildcats threw the kitchen sink at them and the Bears didn’t blink. Arkansas was behind almost the entire night against Oral Roberts but finally wore them down. Arkansas has been down double digits in all 3 tournament games. They can’t afford that against Baylor.
The Pick: Baylor 71 Arkansas 62
Oregon State vs. Houston- The Cougs make it 3 old SWC teams in the Elite 8. The Beavers looked good against Loyola but Houston was more impressive against Syracuse. The numbers say this is a mismatch and I tend to agree.
The Pick: Houston 66 Oregon State 51
