As of right now the Oklahoma Sooners are a one point favorite to beat the Syracuse Orangemen, but I think Syracuse will be the team out of these two to advance to the Elite Eight.

The Sooners do have arguably the best player in college basketball with forward Blake Griffin, but the Orangemen have the edge at the guard position with Jonny Flynn running the point.

No team has been hotter lately than the Orangemen. The UConn Huskies have been just destroying teams in the Big Dance in the first three rounds of the tourney, but Syracuse seems to be on a mission ever since beating the Huskies in the classic six overtime victory over UConn in the Big East tournament.

This game between the Sooners and Orangemen will be the most compelling and entertaining in the Sweet 16, but in the end I think it will be Syracuse playing in UNC in the next round, that is if they can past Gonzaga.
