Minnesota > Wisconsin This tournament appearance by the Gophers is brought to you by Kevin Payton, Limar Wilson, Brandon Smith, Bryce Webster and the Dan Monson/Jim Molinari combo at head coach. I can't believe that we made it to the tourney only two years after these scrubs were running the program, and I am absolutely ecstatic right now.

Soxbadger Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Tournament streak intact, 11 years in a row. No real expectations, just hope for a miracle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minnesota swept Wisconsin, so sure. I don't even think Wisconsin deserved to be in the field to be honest, and they will be gone quickly with the matchup they got anyways. The Oklahoma State/Tennessee first round game here might be the most entertaining among the field, and I think Florida State could give Pitt problems in the 2nd round. Villanova should take out Duke (if Duke even gets past Texas, whose size will cause them problems) on the bottom half of the bracket, and Nova/Pitt in a Big East slugfest would be a fun regional title game here. It might finally be Pitt's years to make a deep run, but they have to keep Blair out of foul trouble because when that happens, they aren't very good.

Soxy Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 So, on a scale of 1 to 10, how hard is Duke going to hammer Binghamton? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 QUOTE (Soxy @ Mar 16, 2009 -> 08:00 AM) So, on a scale of 1 to 10, how hard is Duke going to hammer Binghamton? Who knows. Belmont gave Duke fits in the first round last year. Granted, Duke's a bit better than they were last season but this group of Dukies haven't exactly been great in the NCAA's.

whitesoxfan101 Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 This is such a soft region IMO. If Pitt doesn't make the final four this year, they might never do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that Texas/Minnesota is a great matchup, and I like our defensive chances against them. I think it's 50/50 as to whether we win, really. If Bostick/PC/Hoffarber/whoever steps up unexpectedly on offense then I think we have a very good chance to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo's Drinker Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 No Chance, Pittman is going to take a dump on all your big men. Abrams is gonna shoot lights out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
