lol Mizzou
UConn has only lost to tourney teams, same can't be said for the Tigers

Re: Your Final 4?
Still, I can see Mizzou giving UConn fits, particularly if the Huskies have to play a full 40 minute game against Bucknell in round 1. We have no idea how fatigued UConn is from that Big East Tourney run, and having to play Thursday/Saturday instead of Friday/Sunday took away an extra day of rest for them. Mike Anderson's "40 Minutes of Hell" could cause problems for a tired UConn team.Silenoz wrote:lol Mizzou

Re: Your Final 4?
Ha...a full 40 against Bucknell. There have only been two or three games the last 3 years UCONN has had to play a full 40 minutes. I highly doubt Bucknell will be the team to do it.Shellin wrote:Still, I can see Mizzou giving UConn fits, particularly if the Huskies have to play a full 40 minute game against Bucknell in round 1.

The only team that has a shot with UCONN is Stanford and maybe Baylor.

Should be a cake walk for Kemba Walker and the rest of the UConn's Men's Team then, since neither Baylor nor Stanford made the dance.clenz wrote:Ha...a full 40 against Bucknell.

Re: Your Final 4?
Mizzou is exactly the type of team that could give UConn fits IF, IF, IF they figure out how to play away from home...I doubt they will with just a couple of practices and a game against Cincy.
UConn has a 4 day rest. These are 18-22 year old kids. Not 40 year olds...

Ah, but seriously, I'd think you guys would be used to the hate campaign at this point.
Re: Your Final 4?
I agree, and that's why I have UConn beating Mizzou in that game. Mizzou just doesn't look good away from Columbia. That should be enough rest, but the Gerry McNamara Syracuse team that won 4 games in 4 days in the Big East Tournament a few years back looked dead in their first round game, so who knows.MSUDuo wrote:Mizzou is exactly the type of team that could give UConn fits IF, IF, IF they figure out how to play away from home...I doubt they will with just a couple of practices and a game against Cincy.

OSU, SDSU, Kansas, Wisconsin. I couldn't help but go with the home town heroes and went with SDSU to win it all. It may be the only legitimate chance they can be selected to win this thing. Meh...

my first draft (and as a believer in "bracket integrity there is only one bracket - so i go in drafts) had UW going to the regional final...
after a second look - I've got Belmont pulling the upset...
and either one could easily happen... fucking parody...

Re: Your Final 4?
Just realized I never posted my final 4
Pitt
Kansas
UConn
Kentucky
Kansas over UConn
Pitt has a pretty easy road. BYU and St Johns are gimped, Kansas and Wiscy are overseeded and very probably could lose in the first round, so the only big threat I see is Florida.
My absolute hate for Duke does not allow me to ever pick them to get to the final four, SDSU got blown the f out the 2 times they played an elite team (3rd game versus swooning BYU does not count). Texas is the primary competition there imo.
Kansas vs Notre Dame was a tough one. Either one could easily reach the finals imo
And of course the East is a complete shit-show.
