aboz56 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 QUOTE(Butter Parque @ Mar 20, 2005 -> 08:33 PM) In my opinion, Mississippi State is way better then Michigan State and would beat them easily if they play their game. You lose all credibility with that statement right there. Let's see, one team got a 8 seed playing in an EASY sec conference all season long. Only one team in that entire league made it past the second round and the rest pretty much got embarassed along the way, including LSU and Florida. The other team was ranked in the top 15 all season, played every team tough all season, with the exception of Illinois, the No. 1 team in the land. You act like Michigan St is some kinda walkover opponent. They've got to 3 final fours under Izzo and won a national title. Perhaps when you become better educated with the program, watch some of their games (besides when they play Puke) and get a grasp of what Michigan St is all about, you should resume posting.

He_Gawn Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 He'll figure it out when Duke is tiring and MSU bench is dominating. Hill comes off the bench and he would be the star player for most teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butter Parque Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I think it'll be a good game. The key point to me is trying to get Duke into foul trouble because State has far superior depth. Also keeping JJ from going crazy will be another factor and if Neitzel can keep playing well as a freshman point in the dance. Oh no doubt about it, the game will be close. Duke doesn't blow anyone away. We just don't have the fire power. The key with the foul trouble has been Shelden and Shav learning how to play with fouls, something they didn't know how to do last season. They showed how much they have grown mentally today. In my opinion, Randolph and Williams together, give Duke the best 1-2 punch of big men in the country defensively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butter Parque Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I have a question, why does everyone believe that Duke is gonna all of a sudden tire. They haven't done it all season, so why now. Their gonna have 4 days rest going into the game. I'm sorry slick, but don't count on Duke tiring. You better think of another way in which Mich. State can beat them.

Three teams in the Sweet 16, same as ACC my friend. Georgia Tech showed what it was made of today, blown away by the ville. Overrated all season. Wake got beat by West Virginia. Another overhyped, ESPN manufactured team who played no defense all year and exposed for what they were. And Maryland, who beat Duke twice, wait, they didn't make the tournament.

Butter Parque Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 How many Sweet 16 teams does the ACC have? And the Big 10? Good night They have 3 with a major upset that occured to them. The Big ten has 3 as well, so thats a washout. Now let's see who was better in the regular season. Oh yeas, that would be the ACC. Good Night Willie!

What happened aginst Iowa at home? Don't you think you should have won that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know it's completely different when you win in an upset game. That means your team was better then advertised. When you get a major upset against you, that means you had an offnight or overlooked the opponent. Let me ask you this, would you like your team to face Wake Forest in the Sweet 16, didn't think so.

aboz56 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Im not going to sit here and argue about who is better, we will find out when the game is played on Friday. Duke should win the game if they play to their capabilities, but I think Mich St has a good chance as well. Best of luck to all teams this weekend.

southsider2k5 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 QUOTE(Butter Parque @ Mar 20, 2005 -> 07:33 PM) I think I have a right to judge both teams since I predicted Duke would lose to Miss. State. In my opinion, Mississippi State is way better then Michigan State and would beat them easily if they play their game. Lawrence Roberts is a top 5 big man and that guy Winsome could hit the three. If you guys can remember, last season Miss. State was a #2 seed in the tournament and were off to a great start this season befor that guy Winsome got hurt. They were much better then their seed and record indicated. Michigan State has the most overrated big man in the country in Paul Davis. That guy is a waste of space out there. he'll get controlled by Shelden for the third time in their career's. You mean Paul Davis that shutdown the nations 2nd leading scorer, and took over the game at a critical juncure? If he was wearing blue and white you'd be screaming about how people just hate him just because of the team he plays for. You are such a blatant hypocrate it isn't even funny. :headshake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
