They just beat Ohio State 86-60! I hate watching them though, because they get the camera on Noah way too much. He's probably one of the ugliest dudes I've ever seen, and I've seen some folks in Theodore, Alabama that made me throw up in my mouth a little.
Erm.......anyway I'm not looking forward to Bama's trip to Gainesville.

After seeing my boys in blue just lose by close to 40 to UCLA, I'll pass! Florida looked great today, time to talk repeat?

I think this was a combination of Florida being that good and Ohio State being that overrated....I never thought they were a top five team to begin with, and even top ten was pushing it for me. And Michigan is just Michigan, deal with it.

Yes Repeat
UCLA/Florida (Probably the two best teams again, BUT UCLA wins this time)

Pfffft...I don't see UCLA in the Championship, and they sure as hell wouldn't beat Florida.

It's so difficult to project championships in NCAA Basketball because of the tournament....who they have to go through and all.
Florida's a favorite....if the Tar Heels keep playing like they are now, I wouldn't be surprised to see them go deep...
UCLA hasn't shown me enough yet (a win over Michigan does nothing for me cause I hate Michigan) and they play in one of the weaker power conferences....Arizona, Washington and what else, not much.
I like Mbahahahahahahaha Moute and I like Afflalo....but Florida's frontcourt would flat out beat them up....as would a few other big men. Luc Richard can't quite stand up to Noah and Horford.

I still think that if UCLA-Florida played in the Championship it would be UCLA.
Be pretty cool to see Butler in the Final Four.

One of these years, a mid major will end up going that deep again ala George Mason, but I don't see Butler doing that this year.
Basically, Florida and UCLA's backcourts are even, Florida has a superior frontcourt....even on experience, and I give FLorida an edge in coaching with Donovan.

What does everyone think of my Badgers? Final Four team perhaps?

No.
Elite Eight maybe, I like their frontcourt but aside from Taylor, their backcourt is lacking a little bit.
If they can get good enough guard play in the tournament, they could go pretty far.

I think Florida wont win the title. They did lose to FSU and a good Kansas squad. I think Ohio State did a good job hanging with the Gators but they overworked Oden in the second half- the guy was too tired to hang on. Let the season progress and the Buckeyes will get much better.

Florida is pretty good, but I still don't think you can clearly state that any one team is the best in college basketball right now. There are so many good teams. I do think that Ohio State is overrated and that Oden is overrated. Oden is not that great, he's good, but he wanted to go pro?!?
Watch out for those Aggies too! We beat Auburn at Auburn by about 30 yesterday!

You have to remember that he still does not have full use of his right hand and wrist. He came back at least a month early compared to when he was expected.

We beat Auburn at Auburn by about 30 yesterday! Take any elite player in the nation, hell even Michael Jordan, and take away their strong hand and they won't do well. I read this post and nearly started laughing till i realized how stupid it was....

I didn't know that his hand was hurt that badly, I thought he was like 90% on it now.

I think Oden will surprise everyone and stay for his Sophomore year.
The guy said he was going to college no matter what happened with the NBA's age limit. Then again, he just might've been trying to get the hopes of Buckeye Nation up.

This is extremely painful to say as a Mizzou fan, Kansas has a great shot as anyone to win it all. Until they get past the first round, however, I won't pick them to go very deep in any bracket.
