NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 and Elite 8 Predictions

Posted Mar 22, 2017
UNC will beat Butler by 3-5 points thanks to Joel Berry putting on the best game he’ll have in this tournament. Berry will have a points-assists double-double and maestro the Tar Heels to some heady finishes in the final minutes. Butler will fall short due to an inability to win on the boards. It goes down as the third-best Butler season in program history. (CBS Sports)
