Look at some of these seeds ahead of them. Duke?!?!?! Are you f***ing kidding me? Ugh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 LOL at the region. My nightmare has been realized. TTU vs. BC and then maybe Georgetown. UNC vs. Marquette or Michigan State and then Durant. That's not even fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Gtown is just going to own the bottom half of that region. UNC on the other hand has a very tough road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 I'm just calling the bottom half of this region the George Washington bracket. They have George Washington, Georgetown, and Washington State in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Some of these teams ahead of Marquette is absolutely ridiculous. Indiana?!?!?! Duke?!? Purdue only one seed worse? Gosh damn. Round one game against the best #9 seed in the bracket, and then a round two game that's essentially at UNC? I could go on and on. f***in' bulls***.

MSU isn't the best 9 in the bracket but you have a right to be angry at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think 'Nova is better than them? Purdue? Xavier? No matter. We should win our first round game, even without McNeal. I'm just steaming about a second round matchup AT UNC. I bet the committee is thinking about the McNeal injury, but even without McNeal, they beat a #3 seed at home and won a road game at St. John's. And we were in the game against Pitt, only losing by 10. Whatever... I hate to go all 'woe is me' on you all, but man... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I've got Georgetown in the final 4... easy road for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Be Good Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Go Hoyas Georgetown vs Texas in Elite 8 Upsets: Oral Roberts Albany Creighton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 QUOTE(Be Good @ Mar 11, 2007 -> 08:15 PM) Go Hoyas Georgetown vs Texas in Elite 8 I agree with this, fully. Georgetown over Texas in the elite 8, and then it gets interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 This region is LOADED, best one by far IMO. Hence I'll take the biggest, meanest, and best defensive team in Georgetown. UNC simply seems to not pay attention enough for my taste, and it's gonna get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpy2121 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 (edited) I'm definately feelng the Hoyas in the east bracket. Does anyone have any info on USC? I'm not familiar with the West coast teams, but I'm trying to figure out if this is one of my 5-12 upsets.

Floyd is a really good COLLEGE (emphasis on the caps) coach, that team has a lot of talent, and I wouldn't pick Arkansas because their one big asset (athletic ability) will be canceled out because USC is just as athletic and has solid depth, especially in the backcourt.

ZoomSlowik Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I just can't take Texas over UNC. UNC is considerably bigger and deeper, and Texas is just as young. Durant can only do so much, I don't see him getting enough help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I fully expect Durant to burn UNC for 50 because UNC had to turn him down for his grades. But, I still don't think they can take UNC's depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I still don't think they can take UNC's depth. You'd think teams would start doubling him at all times since James and Mason generally aren't going to hurt you that bad. If he doesn't crack at least 25 against most teams they're toast unless Abrams is hot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 That and Augustin has been playing completely out of control lately. To top it off, Mason was hurt for a lot of the Kansas game and a scrub senior had to get big minutes because of their lack of depth. If Mason is out or in bad shape, then they are screwed.
