March 16, 200818 yr Yes.....Fullerton matches up agains the Badgers. CSUF plays a wide open up-tempo offense and I'm hoping that style will cause Wiscy problems. Of course Wiscy could just grind things out, but Fullerton won't play at that style and they can hit the three ball and if they can rebound they'll be able to get out in transition and create the upset. And yes...this is me purely being hyper on emotion, nothing more and it will f*** my bracket over for sure. Or will it GO TITANS GO!!!!
March 16, 200818 yr Oh you Cal State. Anyways 3 seed in the Midwest isnt so bad and hopefully Wisconsin can get some good fan support in Omaha (closest regional and could potentially face 2 west coast teams). At the end of the day not the worst not the best.

At the end of the day not the worst not the best. I guarantee one thing...you guys will win in terms of fans, but we'll win the game (I'd be stunned if we had 1000 fans there, but god damn I'm on the coolaid and am ready for them to win a tourney game).
March 16, 200818 yr I really feel like Wisconsin is one of the least likely teams to get upset in the first round. Maybe thats the me being a homer, but your team is going to have to shoot lights out to win. If they can drain the 3 they can win the game. Otherwise, good luck.

Lucky for me, they are one of the highest scoring teams in the country and can drop 3's all day long (they also have a very good low post scorer in Cutley). Defensively they are horrendous though, but luckily Wiscy can't score. I'm thrilled the game is in Omaha too, as that is a place that Fullerton has dominated at for years. I feel it is an omen that we are in Omaha And Badger, just so you know, there is nothing but pride going into my logic (although it is true, Fullerton plays a very up tempo approach where they will take the early shot if it is open, ala the Phoenix Suns and no they don't have Steve Nash).
March 16, 200818 yr Cant wait to see what Knight says about Wisconsin, I know he loves defense and loves Bo Ryan.
March 16, 200818 yr Kansas clear favorite for me. G'town maybe, but if I'm Kansas I like the draw. Second weakest region.
March 17, 200818 yr QUOTE(farmteam @ Mar 16, 2008 -> 06:18 PM) It would be bad for me if Fullerton wins, as I have Wisconsin in the Final Four. Thats insane because I think the USC/KST winner could give Wisconsin a damn good gm
March 17, 200818 yr There is a difference between giving a team a good game and being able to beat them. Wisconsin is a premier defensive team and if they can beat Cal State, will face a team that relies on a freshman to do most of the heavy lifting on the offensive end. That is exactly the type of match that Wisconsin would want because they are going to try and frustrate the youngAs foer players into doing stupid things. As for them going to the final 4, not really that insane. The potential path has Georgetown and Kansas, both of which are not the worst match ups for Wisconsin's style of play. Kansas is inconsistent in the tourney and could go down to a team like Clemson. No matter what it will be fun
March 20, 200818 yr QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 20, 2008 -> 02:29 PM) My God, f*** you Kent State. Yeah. They look pretty bad. 10 pts at half. ugh
March 20, 200818 yr Sheesh, they are still getting blown out but look like a very good team in the 2nd half.
March 20, 200818 yr Two former Illini coaches in the 2nd round, interesting. KU will blow UNLV away though.
March 20, 200818 yr Yeah...I'm a solid 2/7 so far. Although, I had all those winners losing in the next round so it's no biggie.
