April 5, 200917 yr It would be nice to see MSU win it and have their last loss to my Buckeyes. I cant see it happening though. UNC is pretty damn good.

April 6, 200917 yr QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Apr 4, 2009 -> 06:55 PM) Jeff Adrien is such a piece of s***. The whole UConn program is a joke. Two national championships in the past 10 years, perennial powers, many alum now stars in the NBA so yeah ok... And if you're referring to the "throw down" get over it, he didnt even touch him when he swung his arm to get him off of him. Nice to see the UConn guards completely fail to show up Saturday. No point in staying up to watch the blowout tonight. Why the hell is the game slated for a 9:21 tip off? Edited April 6, 200917 yr by ChiSox_Sonix
April 6, 200917 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Apr 4, 2009 -> 06:38 PM) So, I was wrong about MSU... There`s a 1000th time for everything.
April 6, 200917 yr Wow, my Heels vs. Sparty for the national title. Hopefully Uncle Roy and the Heels can get one more tonight and bring the crown back to "blue heaven".

Seriously though, I won`t wish the Heels luck, because with their talent they don`t need any. I`m really hoping My Spartans can give them a game, and somehow pull off the upset of the year.

I will be upset, but it could certainly be worse than losing to Izzo.
April 7, 200917 yr Shaping up to be the worst tournament I can recall. Only real good game was Nova/Pitt.
April 7, 200917 yr This game is over. UNC is too good for MSU to come back. I know I'm stating the obvious.
April 7, 200917 yr My pick of MSU winning it all suddenly looks very bad Oh well, at least I was right about them being in the final game!
April 7, 200917 yr UNC has the perfect combination of size, athleticism, perimeter scoring and interior scoring in the country. Their performance overall in this tournament has been one of the most impressive I can remember.

Thompson's been their weak link this tourney, but he's playing great tonight.

Their defense is much better than it's given credit for, too. When you average 90+ PPG and play the kinda up-and-down style on offense they play you're going to give up some points. But I believe they were 5th or 6th in defensive efficiency rating during the regular season, which, IMO, is a better indicator of what kinda defensive team you are than raw PPG allowed. And they've been totally lockdown during this tournament. Edited April 7, 200917 yr by Jordan4life
April 7, 200917 yr Couldn't have asked for a better season for UNC. Tyler will have his jersey retired for NPOY, Lawson will have his jersey in the rafters for his ACC POY award, and now Wayne Ellington will have his jersey in the rafters for the tourney MOP award. UNC will lose Hansbrough, Lawson, Ellington, Green, and Frasor from the rotation this year. That's 4 of UNC's top 34 scorers in UNC history.
April 7, 200917 yr Tyler Hansbrough? Your time in the spotlight is mercifully over. Meet J.J. Redick and Adam Morrison. Good bye. Congrats@Palehose. Now it's officially baseball time for me.

Now it's officially baseball time for me. Last time UNC won it all, the Chisox had a decent season as well... Hopefully I can have another ridiculous sports year. Thanks J4Life.
April 7, 200917 yr If UNC isn't going to be legit contenders next year, I'm cheering for Izzo to take another championship home. MSU should be pretty nasty next year.
April 7, 200917 yr Thank god thats over, KU will be preseason number 1 next year. until that time.........go white sox
April 7, 200917 yr QUOTE (zenryan @ Apr 7, 2009 -> 12:13 AM) Very dominating win. Would love to see a 09 UNC team vs the 07 Florida team. Well the 08 Jayhawks beat UNC in 08 and Florida in 07!
April 7, 200917 yr Dickie V picked the Jayhawks to win it all next year. First time in 500 years he did not take UNC or Puke.

I think Kansas will be really good but it is way too early to be making predictions. It is entirely pointless to speculate on who will win the NC before finding out where the remaining top recruits are heading and who is going pro.
April 7, 200917 yr Carolina reigns supreme. Great Year, ole Uncle Roy and the fella's were dominant. I'm on cloud 9 right now. Thanks Heels!!!!!!! Sparty and Izzo had a great run they just didn't matchup with the Heels.
