Ideal Championship Game: North Carolina vs. Michigan State

Unless you are a fan of the other six teams in this bracket, you want to see this as the championship game. Michigan State and North Carolina are both clear top-15 teams in the country and it would be great to see this battle of powerhouses go down. Both of these programs are elite nationally and this season is absolutely no different.

Unlike past seasons, Michigan State would have the advantage in the frontcourt in this potential game while North Carolina would be better in the backcourt. Both teams are balanced and athletic enough to play at any pace and in either a defensive battle or a high-scoring affair. Most people will expect that this will end up being the championship game of the PK80, and if it is, it will be one of the best games of the non-conference schedule.

Obviously, the field of this bracket is incredible and upsets could happen at any time, but regardless of those outcomes, these are the best two teams. With legendary coaches in Tom Izzo and Roy Williams running these squads, there are storylines everywhere with this as the possible final.
