Duke looks awfully tough to beat when they're getting production outside of Redick and Williams.

 

A team that plays defense like Wake can make just about anybody look good on offense. If Duke beats the BC/UNC winner tomorrow, then I'll be impressed.

Ya think ESPN and the media are hoping for another UNC-DUKE rematch??

Florida over LSU 81-65, good news for Illini fans. Now let's go BC.

You know whose really playing great right now..UCLA. I realize they are beating up on the down pac 10 conference but they are playing strong defensively and the team has grown a lot and responded well to all the injuries.

 

Plus Ben Howland is a very good head coach. The only thing is they'll need to get Bozeman back healthy. I'm putting them down as an elite 8 team.

UCLA has absolutely everything to make a run. They're number 3 on my big board right now. :lol: With Hollins playing well now, they got a 7 footer who can play down low, they're one of the best defensive teams in the nation, and their guard play is absolutely fantastic. I love this UCLA team.

Plus while the Pac 10 is down, they typically get strong play in the tourney. Washington is another team on the rise, but not near as loaded as the Bruins. Arizona just isn't clicking this year though.

 

I love what Howland has done and UCLA has some stellar recruits coming in. They will be a dynasty in basketball once again thanks to Howland. Plus I love West Coast schools and its great that the best college basketball school ever is on the west coast (thats right UCLA; thank you John R. Wooden).

 

I'm actually thinking UCLA has an outside shot at the final 4. They are a really talented team whose deep thanks to all the guys that were inserted into more important roles earlier in the year when the starters were dropping like flies.

I also love the playmakers they have on that team. As long as Bozeman is healthy when having him and Farmar out there, you got two tremendous creators. With a team that has this much talent, that's pretty scary.

Good news for UCLA fans is that Bozeman is looking solid today. The route is on. 16 point lead now. They are just running away with this conference tourney.

Leon Powe is still the most underrated player in America, even though he's out of gas today.  Oh, and UCLA is VERY dangerous.....a Pac 10 team that actually defends doesn't come along too often anymore, but is damn dangerous when it does.

Powe is an absolute stud, period.
