NCAA Hoops 2008-8009!!!!!!!

[primushead]

Okay! Great night of hoops coming up in a couple of hours!  Who's everyone got?

I like Syracuse to upset UConn:  68-63

And of course the annual grudge match at Cameron Indoor.  

Carolina 78
dook 69

I think both Dook and NC are due to play some of their best ball tonight. My prediction (and it would be this even if Dook was undefeated and NC was winless):

NC- 83
Dook- 81

I hope it will be:

NC- 107
Dook- 43

I like your style, Tracy.

And, yes, Goose.  I hope we clobber all of those mo fos.

We don't want anymore of this:

Meh, it was okay

Hansbrough winning all of his games at Cameron is quite remarkable though.

Dayton most likely shot their way into March Madness after getting screwed out of it last year.  Xavier didn't have a bad game, but UD was unstoppable!

Too bad about Duke.  They just don't have an answer for Hansborough.  I'd like to see him matched up against Thabeet from Uconn.  I think we'd see why NBA scouts aren't exactly foaming at the mouth for this guy.

[at dawn]

Blake Griffin is unstoppable.  So is Juan Pattillo.



That is all.

you're saying that the NBA isn't foaming at the mouth for Hansborough, right?

[aMillionDreams]

Yeah, he (hansborough) doesn't have the size to be this dominant in the pros.  No one can dog his game on the college level, but I think Thabeet might give me a glimpse of what he's going to face next year.

Meh, it was okay

Hansbrough winning all of his games at Cameron is quite remarkable though.

Don't forget Danny Green, Frasor and Ginyard (unfortunately hurt) who have played more than small parts in these wins the last 4 years.

I know how Hansborough feels; my game doesn't translate well once I get off the couch or am joined by another person at my driveway hoop. All alone, with no one around, I am virtually unstoppable!

well said at dawn!  I hope no one is sleeping on my soonies.  Willie Warren is legit.  We are deeper than we've ever been since I've been in Norman.  Cade Davis will contribute in the tourney mark my words.  And we have got to PAY Coach Capel at the end of the year.

Hey Greggg,  I would love to see Blake Griffin and Tyler bang in the Final Four.  What do you think?

[capt. scotty]

Moreso than Hansbrough, Im interested to see DeJaun Blair's matchup with Thabeet next week and at least the 1 more time they play this season.  Youd think he iss big with how dominant he is, but hes only 6'7'', though I think they say he has the wingspan on someone 6'11'' or something.

I think UNC could beat UCONN without relying on Hansbrough, Pitt probably couldnt without a decent game from Blair.

Thats 4 G's buddy  ;)

[capt. scotty]

Louisville got a beatdown big ugly white man stylee

ASU beat UCLA for the 2nd time again this year too...Maybe its just me but I see them getting upset fairly early this year

[tower]

The Louisville game just goes to show one thing as far as I'm concerned.  Anyone (at least in the top 25 or so) can lose to or beat anyone on any given night and it can be a blowout.

Duke gets hammered, UL gets hammered, MSU got hammered earlier by UNC...this thing is wide open and the championship is just about anyone's to take!

PLEASE let us keep Capel around!!!!

I'd like to avoid that matchup if possible, because Tyler Hansbrough couldn't guard him at ALL.  Blake is a beast.

It is wide open, but I think theres only 8 or so teams that are good enough to not get upset on teh road to the championship.

Teams like Clemson, Notre Dame, etc. I think have the talent to upset a top dog, but I dont think theyre good enough to make it to the Final 4 or something

[EAZYE]

blake griffin 22 and 13 at the half

[capt. scotty]

Arizona is beating the poo out of UCLA...looks like 2 losses in a row for UCLA

[ycartrob]

I love watching Jim Boeheim coach. Here's one of his finest moments from a couple of years ago.
