No. 2 Memphis Tigers – Conference USA (30-3) vs.

No. 15 North Texas Mean Green – Sun Belt (23-10)

Why Memphis will win: Transition points. Memphis feasts off turnovers turning them into fast break points, and North Texas is all too happy to give up the ball. The Mean Green doesn't have the three point shooting touch to get back in the game once Memphis goes on a run.

Why North Texas will win: With good size inside and excellent all-around athleticism, UNT will be more than happy to run and gun with the high-octane Tigers. MU hasn't been tested in months by a good team and could wilt under the pressure of being a number two seed if the Mean Green gets hot.

What will happen: If you like horrendous free throw shooting, you've got it. Neither team can hit from the stripe, and fortunately for Memphis, it won't have to come up with any big late shots.

Prediction: Memphis 86 ... North Texas 67
