UNC-Illini ACC/Big Ten showdown

Featured Replies

Like its a suprise, but UNC will be playing the Illini in the ACC/Big Ten tournament this year, you guys have a great chance to get some revenge.

Do you have any of the other games?

it'll be at UNC right?

Yes it will be at UNC, and I don't have any other games yet.

its gonna be boring, lots of players left both teams

Should be a few interesting matchups atleast. Tyler Hansbrough versus Augustine should be a good one. Quentin Thomas versus Dee Brown will be ugly I do have to admit.

Exactly. Gonna be a shadow of the title game. Maybe a Duke/MSU re-match?

I don't know if they'll do that. Those 2 teams have played the last 2 years in the Showdown alone. It's probably time for them to play different teams now.

Makes sense. I think we played UNC two years ago in Champaign. If we have Rush, we have a great chance of winning one there.

Big East vs. ACC would be interesting...

It used to be Big East v. ACC, but then the Big East dropped the ball and the Big Ten wisely picked it up.

 

But you're right, it would be interesting now that the Big East is such a basketball monster.

im so happy we get to get some revenge :headbang

I wish we would play Duke

Yikes, no you don't. Their team will unfortunately be nasty next year.

PG. Greg Paulus with senior Sean Dockery as the fall-back

SG. Redick with Martynus Pocius, Demarcus Nelson backing him up

SF. Melchionni with Pocius and Nelson backing him up also

PF. McRoberts with Jamal Boykin backing him up

C. Shelden Williams with Nyan Boetang backing him up

 

I don't see many teams challenging them next year, possibly UConn if their PG troubles are solved, Villanova, Texas, and Oklahoma if they can find a PG.

Yes, I think I'll take the airplane trip down to Chapel Hill to see the game. Can't wait.

Even if they win, I wouldn't exactly call that revenge.
