The No. 16-seeded James Madison Dukes will face off against the No. 1 Indiana Hoosiers in NCAA tournament play on Friday at the University of Dayton Arena.

While it's already tough enough for the Hoosiers to live up to the sky-high expectations of its die-hard fans, Indiana will carrier an even heavier weight this March.

Interesting enough, President Barack Obama has predicted the Hoosiers to win it all this year.

"It's nice. It's really good. But I'm also concerned that someone said that he was 1/3 in his picks before. You hope he's right on this one," Indiana coach Tom Crean told ESPN.

"The Big Ten prepares you for anything and everything, and the one thing it totally prepares you for is to never take anything lightly," he added.

Crean knows a thing or two about overcoming the odds. Five years ago, he took over a program that was on the decline. It was leveled by NCAA sanctions and disgraced by an ongoing scandal under its former coach Kelvin Sampson.
