Official NCAA Tournament Thread

[Sportsbuck]

Well, my Final Four consists of UNC, Ohio State, Florida, and UCLA. I called a few upsets, but overall, my champioship is a rematch of Florida-Ohio State. The Buckeyes revenge tour (UNC and Florida) will continue, as they will take it 76-72.

At least, that's how I say it in my incredibly biased world.

I don't have a Final Four yet. I'm taking my sweet time here.

I'm skeptical of so many of these teams' ability, but then I look and nobody stands out. This is gonna be really tough to predict.

[USN]

OSU really doesn't have to play anyone until the Elite 8...Kansas should get to the Final 4...Oregon or Wisconsin could give Florida some trouble..and UNC could possibly be one and done..UNC won't be able to get past Texas and Georgetown..so who do I have in the Final 4?....idk

[Sportsbuck]

Have you seen UNC this year? They have what I think is the most talented roster in the country, and, they are a lock for the final four, in my opinion.

[Tarheels Reign Supreame]

unc's got great depth and great coaching, i thin that can take us a long way.

[USN]

hello Duke fan?...I've seen UNC, watched em for the past two days but I haven't seen them play Texas or Georgetown

[detroitbasketball]

UNC could get past anyone in that bracket, but then again....yeah. They could surge through, or have a letdown. I don't think they'll be one and done though.

[USN]

Marquette could do something, but UNC has a ton of quickness and speed...I think Hibbert and Georgetown can wear them down

Last I checked they swept you.

[USN]

that was in response to the "have I seen UNC" comment...

[USN]

I know this isn't on the Yahoo bracket, but....FAMU vs Niagara, who ya got?

[Tarheels Reign Supreame]

famu...

ty can sure push it up the court, and i feel brandon wright can use his smoothness effectively against the bigs like hibbert and durant, while hansbrough can hopefully forget bout the facemask and bang bodies with them and give em some foul trouble.

[USN]

if UNC shoots their free throws during the tourney like they did today against NC state, they won't have an issue

I'm pretty confident in saying that Tyler Hansbrough and Brandon Wright would be able to shut down Kevin Durant.

They won't, because he's that good. He won't put up 30 points and 10+ rebounds against UNC, but they won't shut him down. Texas is just too young IMO to make a huge run. Georgetown however is a team I could see winning it all.

[USN]

did you see Durant today? Big 12 basketball is the most physical basketball in the nation and he plays like there is no defender...

[Tarheels Reign Supreame]

dude unc's bench could form a starting lineup which could make a good run in the tourney, there that good

[USN]

so, this is March Madness and stuff happens

Yeah but has he had to try and score with a player like Tyler Hansbrough or a Greg Oden on him? I think not.

Niagra's gonna win the National Championship. Write. It. Down.
