Tourney Games Not Involving Duke

[OZZIE4DUKE]

WOW!!!!!

Just wow!

[YmoBeThere]

All I can say is excellent!

Oh and many of those experts I posted above are missing half their Final Four.

I wouldn't mind if KY were a little too nonchalant regarding Wake...

I'm wasting WAY too much time with this:

So much for 4 of the "experts" and their South Region pick

How about those 5 "experts" and the Midwest region...

A couple people on ESPN's bracket challenge still have relatively intact brackets. Insane.

The d***s are down 15 or 16 at the half to the wildcraps.
I'm still considering a name change...

Dude, not their fault. Kentucky is "SICK" good. They are going to win it all this year.

Not wanting that to happen.

Their Midwest Region pick doesn't look so great either.

Even if they do, they'll have to vacate the title within 5 years time if Calipari's record holds true to form.

Kentucky pretty much has a lock on having the most talent left in the tourney. However, ALL of it is YOUNG talent. When they're on, they'll beat anybody. However, they have shown that even they can be vulnerable to having just an inexplicably bad and stupid game. We'll see.

As for someone's comment that our road just got easier, I disagree. I was far more worried about Baylor than Villanova. I have a feeling we would have crushed Nova if we'd met them this year. We're a lot better than last year, and they're not nearly as good as last year. Baylor's a much better team. We'll see. We still have to get past Cal and the Sweet 16 to worry. ;)

I was kind of hoping for McFarland to light Cousins' short fuse so Cousins might take himself out of the game... I figured if anybody could "push" Cousins to the brink it would be McFarland.

If we beat California, WHERE would we play Baylor?

2010 South Regional host arena: Houston Reliant Stadium.

UGH... playing Baylor in Texas.

[CameronBornAndBred]

I'm in this camp too. I would much rather play a bad Villanova team than the team that BEAT Villanova. Same goes with anyone else we play. From this point on, any team we play is there because they beat someone else. Would Maryland rather play Kansas or Northern Iowa? I'd go with Kansas, because they would have beaten two lower seeded teams, as opposed to Northern Iowa, a team that did the reverse. Out of the two, only one would have proven they belonged there.

Baylor is a relatively small player on the sports scene, so I don't think it will be a huge advantage.

True. And by the way, I REALLY hope I'm wrong. Can Duke do it? Yes. Do I hope and pray they do? YES! Just have a gut feeling about the bastards from Lexington.

Is that Kansas? Wow. Passion.
