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.

When UNC plays well there isn't a team in the country this year that can beat them.

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?

So, I was wrong about MSU...

 

There`s a 1000th time for everything. :lolhitting

 

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".

Wasn`t Steve Martin in that movie? 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.

Good luck to you MSU fans as well. You have a classy program and coach. I will be upset, but it could certainly be worse than losing to Izzo.

Shaping up to be the worst tournament I can recall. Only real good game was Nova/Pitt.

This game is over. UNC is too good for MSU to come back.

 

I know I'm stating the obvious.

Oh, and Chris Allen sucks. He might as well transfer somewhere like Ga Southern.

My pick of MSU winning it all suddenly looks very bad :P

 

Oh well, at least I was right about them being in the final game!

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.

They're amazingly efficient on offense. 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.

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.

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.

Last time UNC won it all, the Chisox had a decent season as well... Hopefully I can have another ridiculous sports year. Thanks J4Life.

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.

Thank god thats over, KU will be preseason number 1 next year.

 

until that time.........go white sox

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!

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.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 29, 2009 -> 10:40 PM)
Spartans-Heels, UNC takes it.

Yup.

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.
