Since the East and Midwest winners eventually face each other in the semis, it would seem to give an edge to Duke to at least make the finals over them

Yes, Kansas could be a tough hurdle to get over. I've seen nothing that suggests Kansas doesn't deserve it's No. 1 ranking.

While this Duke team is as physically talented as last year's team it hasn't shown itself to be as mentally tough. If it wasn't for all the extra TV timeouts they wouldn't have a shot since they play the starting five almost the entire game. A team with a deeper bench can tire them out by forcing them to expend a lot of energy on defense. Of course I say this with the realization that you can never count out Coach K.
