UAAP Layup Lines - Season 76 mid-season Final Four predictions


Halfway through the season, and the UAAP is staring at a parity sandwich. The FEU Tamaraws are a perfect 7-0, while the UP Fighting Maroons are a winless 0-7, but in-between are three squads with 4-3 records, and three with 3-4 cards.

So how best to make sense of what's happened in the first round of the UAAP? In part two of a two-part series, we asked our Layup Lines contributors to predict which teams will make it to the Final Four and who wins it all. Part one saw them vote for several mid-season awards.

Agree or disagree with their picks? Let us know in the comments below.

(Editor's note: Chuck's prediction has the FEU Tamaraws going undefeated after the two rounds, thus, the stepladder format for the Final Four was used)
