The Official NCAA Basketball Thread

[Tangled Web]

College football is my favorite but NCAA Basketball is a second. So, how about Arizona losing to Virginia? So much for that Final Four lock.

Who do you guys like? I know we have that Georgetown fan around here. As well as that Duke fan.

I was at the Virginia game, and I gotta say it was awesome. That game had everything--a new arena, a come from behind victory against a ranked opponent, and the mascot descending down from the rafters with the game ball. t:

Absolutely incredible. Consider me the resident Virginia fan.

I think Flordia might take it all the way this year, though . . .

Florida was damn good last year. They were lucky they got to play that Conderella team in the finals last year before the championship game. They got an exhibition game before the championship. Meanwhile UCLA had to scheme for that Big Baby Davis at LSU before going in to the championship game.

I pull for Miami and Michigan as well, but Carolina owns my soul in college basketball.

NCAA Basketball has started. Show your support for your team and talk a little smack at your rivals.

My team are the UW Badgers and MU Tigers.

The Badgers are returning four starters and look to challenge for the Big10 title. Hopefully Coach Ryan can give us one the best Badger Basketball Seasons yet.

The Tigers are a different story, but there is hope with new coach Mike Anderson and his '40-minutes of Hell' system. Anything has to be better than what Quinn pulled off. Quinn didn't leave Coach Anderson much to work with and its a competely different style of play. Hopefully the Tigers will have a good showing this year.

As for my smack talk; two words "ORAL ROBERTS".

I think the refs helped Maryland win the 2K CvC tourney.

Blue Devil fan from Durham aka Blue Hell....tonight we did not look so good...Paulus need to get better or it will be a long season for the Blue Devils.

Jayhawks, baby!

 

[Fran]

Whoa... there are two threads for this... someone should merge them.

 

[Badger]

Please merge with the other NCAA B-ball thread.

Back to NCAA Hoops - AP 25

 

[Fran]

ALRIGHT! MSU is really close , ranked 32nd!

They should have beaten Maryland. Got robbed by the refs.

 

[bored]

Well, one humiliating upset is out of the way, so I anticipate good things the rest of the season from the Red and Blue. Big game against Florida on Saturday, though. They're going down.

 

[Tangled Web]

Duke lost.
Bruins won.
Last night was pretty good.
We have to take care of the Yellowjackets tonight.

 

[Mister J]

Looks like Carolina is going down to the Zags.

Tennessee lost to Butler?

UCLA beating Gerogia Tech by 20.

Wow... Gonzaga beat #2 UNC.
