After this weekend, only three teams – North Carolina, Memphis and Kansas – remain unbeaten in college basketball. Do you think any of these teams have a chance of completing a perfect season?

“I think Memphis has a really good chance. Unlike past Tiger teams, this Memphis squad played a difficult non-conference schedule and came out with a perfect record. Memphis will have to get past Tennessee and Gonzaga but both of those games are at home. Kansas and North Carolina play in tough conferences so I don’t see them winning out.”

“Memphis only has two real games remaining. The Tigers have yet to taken on a Gonzaga club that could give them a run for their money before a critical Feb. 23 matchup with in-state rival No. 9 Tennessee. Memphis is the best pick out of the three simply because its difficult remaining games are at home in the friendly FedEx Forum.”

“No. While North Carolina could possibly have an undefeated regular season it’s almost a known fact that the ACC Tournament can prove to provide some surprising upsets. Memphis is one of those teams that is bound for an upset that will put a blunder on their flawless season and KU won’t be much if Brandon Rush isn’t producing big minutes.”
