Agreed, certainly a VERY tough stretch for them and we'll know a little more about them afterwards. ![]()

i'd have to disagree w/u about uconn being a fraud just cuz they lost to pitt......for as badly as thabeet got outplayed last night, they were still tied w/3 mins to go and had a chance to win the game. I don't see how u can completely discount uconn for losing a close game that could have went either way to one of the top 4 teams in the nation. How many teams r there w/a beast for a big guy such as blair?? I can't think of anybody.....blake griffen is a heck of a player, but he isn't gonna overpower thabeet in the post like blair did. I guarantee thabeet will play alot better the next time uconn plays pitt......u could tell thabeet was finally starting to pull his head out of his ass when he came back into the game around the 12 min mark......and uconn was finally starting to get the momentum....and then he got f'd with his 4th foul that was complete horse crap. As for which conf is better, i'd take pitt, uconn, ville, marq, and nova over any acc team that isn't named north carolina

You do realize that game was 2 months ago, right? Marquette is a much different team than they were back in December. In college basketball you can't look back at games like that and say "well this team lost to this team or this team struggled with this team"...very ignorant thinking on your part and you obviously don't know the game very well. Nice job on your first post... ![]()
Yes that was a long time ago when state was without a pg, degand played 20 minutes because of injury and javy gonzalez played 2 neither started. Well imo the only reason i brought that up is simply stating i believe they are a middle of the pack acc team could i be wrong of course we will never know so its not worth getting into a pissing match about but what makes my opinion so far of base. How is marquette a different team now than in Dec. They are same team they have been for the last few years, led by 3 srs who have been playing together for 4 years? Are you expecting a noticeable increase in their performance after christmas of their 4th year? Just not impressed with them as they had a very favorable early schedule. They have 3 solid guards and can make a nice tourney run but just not seeing them getting very far.

Yes wake lost at state and you have the most unpredictable team in the country. They are not that good period. They would struggle in the big east against uconn pitt lou wvu and syr because of syr zone. All those teams mentioned wouldnt allow wake to get out and run and score on fast breaks. I think against marq nova sh pro nd wake much more favorable to win those with their length and way those teams like to run. Wake will not make it far in the tourney and anyone who thinks so is kidding themselves. Wake doesnt have anyone that is a threat to shoot the ball from the perimeter. So leave the perimeter open pack it in make em play a half court game and the rest is history. Teague shoots a high percentage but limit his scoring and you will see a wake team that will struggle. Wake beat unc because they could score in transition along with the fact that wake length gave them fits. Wake will need a favorable draw in the dance to make noise. As far as miami they are nothing to brag about they wouldnt make much noise in the be. Mcclinton is an absolute monster one of the best pure scorers in the country period but besides him they arent much and when you include that they havent been playing with their pg most of the year they are a threat to noone.
