FOX Sports' John Fanta breaks down the South Region of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, from must-see matchups to teams on upset alert and more.
The South Region of the 2024 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament can be termed … Guardland. That's because it features a ridiculous collection of backcourt talent all rolled into one region. You've got Jamal Shead, LJ Cryer and a Houston team that, despite losing to Iowa State in the Big 12 Tournament championship game, still possesses as much toughness as anyone in college basketball and has the nation's No. 2 defense.
and TJ Bickerstaff, who combine to average over 30 points per game in a KenPom top-60 offense. This team's ability to get up and down can create issues, and they will be unfazed by the Badgers. JMU already owns a win over the Big Ten, having beaten Michigan State on opening night.
