Balance is key in college basketball. Even if you are stacked in the backcourt, you may be weak on the interior. Conversely, a team may be loaded in the paint, but not very potent on the perimeter. To make noise in the NCAA Tournament, production from both inside and outside is necessary. Here are the top inside-outside duos:

1. North Carolina: Tywon Lawson, Tyler Hansbrough
2. UCLA: Darren Collison, Kevin Love
3. Indiana: Eric Gordon, D.J. White
4. Stanford: Lawrence Hill, Brook Lopez
5. Kansas: Brandon Rush, Darrell Arthur
6. USC: O.J. Mayo, Taj Gibson
7. North Carolina State: Gavin Grant, Brandon Costner
8. Mississippi State: Jamont Gordon, Charles Rhodes
9. Georgetown: Jonathan Wallace, Roy Hibbert
10. Gonzaga: Jeremy Pargo, Josh Heytvelt
11. Memphis: Chris Douglas-Roberts, Joey Dorsey
