i'm going with uconn.

I want to say repeat, but I just can't see it happening, so I'll just say anybody but Duke.

SIU is the obvious choice.

I'd like to see UConn do it, if a Big Ten team can't.

 

IU played 3 of the 4 FF teams last year. If things go as planned, we should have played at least half of them this year. We'll see.

if a Big Ten team can't.

And they can't.

UConn, they have too many good players. Hilton Armstrong, Rudy Gay, Josh Boone, Denham Brown, Rashad Anderson and Marcus Williams. But in second, I would pick Villanova because of their guard play.

I'd love to see anyone but UCONN, Duke, or Illinois. My dream Final Four would be LSU, WVU, Washington, and Tennessee.

What a horrible name for this sub forum.  The person who thought of it should be banned.

 

I'm taking Gonzaga so I can talk s*** to Rowand later. Not. I'm takin Uconn.

UConn definitely should be the odds-on-favorite. They don't have any major weaknesses that I can see.

 

I really only see two other teams that stand out as potential national champs: Villanova and Memphis. Those are the only other two teams that I've been impressed with. I know that Nova could have a tough time because of their size and that Memphis is a little young, but everyone else has some bigger flaws.

No Duke? I hate them as much as anybody, but they've gotta be right up there as one of the favorites.

They won't make it to the final four.

CUSE

I really don't think they will win 6 in a row on a neutral floor, with refs that should be less favorable than normal. They would have lost about 3 more games if not for the favorable calls that they get at home, and they needed a half court prayer to bail them out against another non-tourney team. They rely on Redick and Williams very heavily. One bad game from either of them and they are done. This is especially a concern since Redick seems to be wearing out recently. In his last two games he's shot 5-21 and 3-10, with only free throws propping up his totals. Considering he'll probably get fewer favorable calls and his performance in the tournament the last few years, I can't really consider them a strong favorite to make the Final Four.

Who are you picking, not who you want.

I think I'm gonna pick UConn or Villanova. I'll wait to make up my mind until I see the brackets though.

Been saying it all year...UCONN.

Who are you picking, not who you want.

 

obviously im picking Illini

 

Luckily i dont plan to pay any money to do one of those march madness things.

I'll agree with that

And they can't.

 

I doubt a Big 10 team can even make the Final 4. Oh, and UConn will win it all, they are too damn good.
