I don't know about that. I favor Louisville. UM shot very poorly from the FT line and in spite of that was able to win their two biggest games of the tourney - to me that suggests they have had an easier route than UL.

I don't see the logic in that...

Louisville is probably the best defensive TEAM UM has seen this year. They don't have a ball hawk like Craft, but their intense man to man is going to be problematic for guys like Stauskas and GRiii who can't really create space and get their own shot off. Of the tourny run, this will be the biggest challenge.

I predicted tsun would win the national championship here before the season started. I wish my predictions weren't always so devastatingly accurate but here we are.

They are a bad matchup for Louisville. They won't turn the ball. Louisville doesn't have the offensive firepower to match up.

Do you have a link to that prediction or did you just think about it before the season started:huh:

I do not think that it is a bad matchup for Louisville. They probably are not as good as TSUN in the backcourt but they have a lot of size which could create problems for the boys from up north.

As much as it pains me to say scUM is going to be a final 4 contender this year.

They have one of the best point guards in the country, guys on the perimeter who can get buckets, and some big men who do the dirty work.

He made that prediction back in August in the B1G thread. Pretty good call

I guess everyone finds an acorn every once in a while. I do not even think that they were ranked in the top 20 by any of the gurus.

I thought I actually predicted them to win the title but I guess I didn't. They were who I would have bet on at the beginning of the season. I thought McGary would play more like this from the beginning of the year.
