Arizona matches up VERY well with Duke if they can get past WVU. Elite 8 is not out of the question

Yea. Bayless on Paulus. Buddinger on Singler? Henderson? He is too big for Henderson and too good for Singler.

You need Hill to do some work but you could be pretty good. You guys are my sleeper.

 

[answer iv dmx]

Drew Lavender is playing hurt.
Whats the injury?

 

[allen3xis]

I believe his ankle, and it's been hampering him for a while now.

 

[answer iv dmx]

Looks like it happen against St. Joe's judging by his past couple games stats. I would think he would be fine for Thursday/Friday since he's played inthe last two

No i think when they run into Purdue there going to lose.
I just don't think they have that one true scorer.

Ima have usc in the final four.. like other people said.. i think mayos gonna go off this tourny
b-easy cranking it up a notch > mayo cranking it up a notch. it's hard to believe, but we have yet to see the best from b-easy (it'sscary, i know). bill walker just needs to follow suit. i can't emphasize that enough. when walker is on along with b-easy, they are the most dominant duoin the country.

at all of you being brainwashed by allen and picking siena to beatvandy. vandy will smack siena. it's not even foster that will do the most damage, seina has absolutely no answer for ogilvy. it'll be a rout.

Alex Franklin..

NT...

If JRain is not the seal of approval for Siena, I don't know what is.



Just playin man....(but really

...yall know now

)


..
I can't see Beasley carrying them enough for a win in that game. Mayo has more help. MAYBE if Beasley gets a few quick fouls on Gibson they'll have anice chance

I just feel that USC is the more complete team. If Beasley isn't scoring 30+ they have no chance imo.

USC can compete without Mayo having to score 25 - 30

 

[allen3xis]

I think the big difference is..

Tim Floyd >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Frank Martin.

I'm not even a Floyd supporter in the least....but he might have a field day coaching laps around Martin

 

[jville819]

allen, what are some other games you see with coaching being a factor on the outcome

 

[in the line for viis]

NCAA Champ...COPPIN STATE!

ELITE 8
UNC
Tenn
Kansas
Wisconsin
Pitt
Stanford
UCLA
Duke

FINAL 4
Tenn
Kansas
Pitt
UCLA

Championship
Tenn over UCLA

 

[allen3xis]

I don't know if there's another game in Rnd 1 where I see a big difference like that one..

but I don't trust:

Mike Brey
Kevin O'Neill
Dan Dakich(?)

and for one game, I like these guys..

Jay Wright
Phil Martelli

And one thing to think about..

Billy G had some tournament success with A&M....and Tom Crean has never won a tournament game without Dwayne Wade.
..

I think the coaching will come into play a lot more after Round 1.

 

[jville819]

I might have to change mine and have Wisc goin a little farther. Every time i look at my bracket i have less an less confidence in GTown

 

[j rain 23]

LATE BREAKING CHANGE IN MY BRACKET:

SOUTH BAMA TO THE SWEET 16!!!

I THINK PLAYING IN BIRMINGHAM IS GOING TO BE A BIG BOOST AND ADVANTAGE FOR THEM

MY BRACKET IS NUTS! (laughs like a mad scientist) MUAHAHAHAHA
