March 23, 200818 yr The fact that Butler played that badly and still sent Tennessee to OT tells me all I need to know about both Butler (very good) and Tennessee (in trouble). Sad to see my buddy and his team lose a game like that though, I thought they had it when it went to OT.
March 23, 200818 yr QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Mar 23, 2008 -> 04:47 PM) That was by far the worst I've seen Butler and Mike Green play all year. Brutal. Graves couldn't buy an outside shot it seemed.
March 23, 200818 yr Louisville and North Carolina are just destroying their opponents right now. I expect that to be the regional final here and it'd be a heck of a game. It's amazing how much better the 3's are than the 2's.
March 23, 200818 yr It has been a lot of fun to watch these guys the first two rounds. But I'm sure WSU will slow the game down by about 30 points.

I think UNC is going to roll to the final if they can get passed WSU(even with Louisville and Kansas still around), but I just don't think it's going to be that easy. I expect UNC to win but I think it's going to be a great game.

I expect UNC to win but I think it's going to be a great game. UNC is an unstoppable machine right now
March 28, 200818 yr QUOTE(3E8 @ Mar 27, 2008 -> 11:02 PM) Seriously I've seen more discipline in street ball Yeah, Tennessee got exposed. Their defense was absolutely awful.
March 28, 200818 yr Tenn's pg play tonight was embarrassing. Of course, Chris Lofton continued his terribly disappointing senior season.
March 28, 200818 yr Tennesssee has no point guard and can't play defense unless it involves their opponent turning it over, but that's been obvious for a while. A less than surprising exposition of the Vols tonight (they should have lost to Butler). On a side note, DAMN Carolina is good. I remember thinking early this year that this team might be as good if not better than the 2005 version, and they are starting to head in that direction with this dominance. Louisville is really playing well though, UNC might only beat them by like 12. Edited March 28, 200818 yr by whitesoxfan101
March 28, 200818 yr UNC won 1st round by about 40, 2nd by 30, 3rd by 20 etc, hopefully it continues. I kid, Louisville is the best team UNC has played all year so it should be a great game. Ginyard and Ellington are going to get to try to guard several 6' types.

March 28, 200818 yr QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Mar 23, 2008 -> 06:03 PM) I've got a feeling Louisville and Tennessee isn't going to be too close. Doesn't mean anything, and it isn't terribly surprising, but I called this one.
March 28, 200818 yr Does that mean they will tie in the Final Four? Yeah, I have gone over that scenario, a tie in the final four and then a 10 point loss in the finals, no thanks :-P.
March 28, 200818 yr Thank god I dont have to see Bruce Pearl's ugly mug on tv anymore, or his team of "i dont know how to wear handbands correctly" players.
March 29, 200818 yr Loiusville/UNC could be a epic battle. Both teams are really playing well, and in this one and done format this one could be a classic. I'm SO thankful Roy did not rush Ty Lawson back frrom his ankle injury, he seems to be full speed and they are a different team with him running the show at breakneck speed. I'll be a bundle of nerves waiting for this one.
March 30, 200818 yr Louisville needs to get their act together. I picked them in the Final 4 in my money bracket. I'm looking like an idiot.
March 30, 200818 yr The most overrated player in the history of sports, David Padgett, is having just a terrible game.
March 30, 200818 yr UNC is clearly the most athletic team in the tourney. It feels like they are shooting like 75% from the floor with all these lay ins they create
March 30, 200818 yr One thing I can't stand about college basketball refs is when someone on defense basically knocks over a player to get the ball, nothing is called, then he goes up for a shot and is either entirely missed, or slightly hit and they call a foul. I hate the inconsistancy of calling fouls.
