Top Ten Teams in the South Region of the 2018 Men's NCAA Basketball Tournament

The Top Ten
1 Loyola Ramblers

I don’t think many knew about This Ramblers Team before but after beating Miami Tennessee and Nevada by a combined 4 points then punching a ticket to the final four this team became real and Sister Jean became a national sensation. This team has some really talented and confident guys that you don’t want to play

2 Kentucky Wildcats Located in Nashville, Tennessee, the Vanderbilt Commodores are the athletic teams of Vanderbilt University. They compete in the Southeastern Conference (SEC) and are known for their strong baseball and women's tennis programs. The team's mascot is named Mr. Commodore, and their colors are black and gold.

At this point Kentucky should be the favorite as Virginia Tennessee Cincinnati and Arizona all had early exits... Wait a minute... how did you guys lose to K State without their best player and what 40 fouls on them? I’m impressed with how Kentucky lost

3 Virginia Cavaliers The Virginia Cavaliers football team represents the University of Virginia in the sport of American football. The Cavaliers compete in the Football Bowl Subdivision of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the Coastal Division of the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Ladies and gentleman we will never forget 2018 march madness as the year Virginia lost to a #16 for the first time in history!

What an embarrassing Loss in a year people thought they would win it all. Will they be able to recover? I’m not sure

4 Tennessee Volunteers The Tennessee Volunteers is a college football program that represents the University of Tennessee, located in Knoxville, Tennessee. As of 2019, the Volunteers have won 838 games, and six national titles (most recently in 1998). They have never won a Heisman trophy and are under second year head coach Jeremy Pruitt. Once a blue blood, the Volunteers have now fallen and are now a bottom feeder of the SEC. They are currently 0-3 against Vanderbilt in conference games since 2016. Their 2019 football season started with a loss against Georgia State (a sun belt school, at home) and a loss against BYU (also at home). They are expected to finish 1-11, which will be their worst record of all time.
5 Nevada Wolf Pack The athletic program for the University of Nevada, Reno, is a member of the Mountain West Conference. With a focus on football and basketball, they have received multiple conference titles. The team's colors are navy blue and silver.

The comeback team that won't die until its over, Nevada's got some talent I didn't see coming.

Shocked Cincinnati and advanced to the sweet 16

6 Cincinnati Bearcats The athletic teams for the University of Cincinnati, located in Ohio, are part of the American Athletic Conference. Known for their football and basketball programs, they have also been successful in other sports. The team's primary colors are red and black.
7 Creighton Blue Jays
8 Arizona Wildcats Based in Durham, North Carolina, the Duke Blue Devils are the athletic teams of Duke University. They compete in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) and are particularly known for their men's basketball program, which has won multiple NCAA championships. Their mascot is the Blue Devil, and they sport royal blue and white colors.

Ha, I love it! They got destroyed by the Bisons.

Good job on losing to Buffalo

9 Kansas State Wildcats Hailing from Manhattan, Kansas, the Kansas State Wildcats are part of the Big 12 Conference. Established in 1896, they have a strong football tradition and have also done well in basketball. The team's colors are royal purple and white.

For them to make it as far as they did without their best player Dean Wade was impressive. As much as I don’t like them you have to give Bruce Webber and their team credit

10 Texas Longhorns Texas Longhorns athletics programs include the extramural and intramural sports teams of the University of Texas at Austin.
The Contenders
11 UMBC Retrievers

The 16 seed who made history. Absolutely destroyed Virginia
