Rowand44 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 SIU is the obvious choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I'd like to see UConn do it, if a Big Ten team can't. IU played 3 of the 4 FF teams last year. If things go as planned, we should have played at least half of them this year. We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggsmaggs Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 UConn, they have too many good players. Hilton Armstrong, Rudy Gay, Josh Boone, Denham Brown, Rashad Anderson and Marcus Williams. But in second, I would pick Villanova because of their guard play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I'd love to see anyone but UCONN, Duke, or Illinois. My dream Final Four would be LSU, WVU, Washington, and Tennessee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomSlowik Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 UConn definitely should be the odds-on-favorite. They don't have any major weaknesses that I can see. I really only see two other teams that stand out as potential national champs: Villanova and Memphis. Those are the only other two teams that I've been impressed with. I know that Nova could have a tough time because of their size and that Memphis is a little young, but everyone else has some bigger flaws.

I hate them as much as anybody, but they've gotta be right up there as one of the favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomSlowik Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 (edited) QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Feb 28, 2006 -> 11:54 PM) No Duke? I hate them as much as anybody, but they've gotta be right up there as one of the favorites. I really don't think they will win 6 in a row on a neutral floor, with refs that should be less favorable than normal. They would have lost about 3 more games if not for the favorable calls that they get at home, and they needed a half court prayer to bail them out against another non-tourney team. They rely on Redick and Williams very heavily. One bad game from either of them and they are done. This is especially a concern since Redick seems to be wearing out recently. In his last two games he's shot 5-21 and 3-10, with only free throws propping up his totals. Considering he'll probably get fewer favorable calls and his performance in the tournament the last few years, I can't really consider them a strong favorite to make the Final Four.
