I’m feeling Virginia right now. Just think they have the offense now to go along with their lockdown D.
Who would you put your money on? Any futures worth a shot?

UVA started to shit the bed against NCSU right after I made thread. I make moves.
I’d be alright with Gonzaga winning it all. Few deserves one after all the years of success.
Duke isn’t winning it all. That’s all I know.
Haven’t seen Texas Tech enough. Would say no just based on name alone. Big 12 overrated in my eyes.

They’re probably hoping their draw isn’t in Charlotte Hornets gym like right now

Funny how that works. They’ll get it together and spank the Wolfpack still. Three and a half white guys on the floor for UVA. Don’t see that often.

So many teams capable of cutting down the nets. Matchups are gonna be huge in this tournament. UNC could make another run at it with the right draw. I’d have to put my money on ACC over the field. Even FSU looks dangerous. Though Hamilton is good for a WTF loss.

Gonzaga seems like the most complete team to me. If I had to pick I’d go with them because they got talent, experience and well coached. Zion is amazing but their supporting cast is overrated. Reddish does nothing. UVA is great but margin for error is small because their style of play. UK has been quietly flying under the radar, I like them, could see them winning it all.

All depends on the seeding/road to the Final Four...
But Tenn, Kentucky, Mich State, UNC all capable.

Good luck Gza. My money would be on UVA. People may be afraid after UMBC, but this team is a different animal. Good luck preparing for Tony Bennett in one day. Gonna have to get them in a Thu/Fri game with a week of prep.

definitely agree with everything else, but they have looked to push a little more this season than typical in past years.
I really thought that was a big flaw of the team, lessening the posessions in the game when they have more talent.

sounds good to me to, texas tech has greatly overachieved this season, usually those teams crap out early in the tournament

this is an odd year because the clear best team talentwise is super young and the other teams a step below them all have way more experience
i would agree with cuse, the acc seems like the best bet if you have to pick a conference to win

Virginia is a choke tourney team every year.
DUKE and UNC are both strong choices to potentially win
Villinova hasn't had a good season, but they are a god tourney team
Gonzaga is nothing to me same with Tennessee
Michigan and Michigan St could be dangerous based on how their bracket is set up

I don't know when Justin Robinson is suppose to come back, but they could make a really deep run as a weaker seed.

I don't know how the brackets will be but I see Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky and Michigan St in final 4. If Duke and North Carolina don't meet in the semifinal then these two will be the championship teams with North Carolina winning. They won't shoot 20% from downtown again.

Michigan St kind of looks like a team that could get bounced before the round of 16.

UVA has the two big chokes that get people down on them. The Elite 8 game up 15 against Syracuse, and UMBC. The 15 point lead was like with 8-9 minutes left so not terrible. Cuse just got hot. UMBC was under seeded, and Hunter was out.
This team is Tony’s best yet. They don’t make the game painfully slow now which helps keep teams around, but they can still lock it down on D. They get to avoid Duke in their bracket too. Not sure who beats them until the FF.

That’s how they suck you in. You tell yourself it’s going to be different every time but they will disappoint.
Their bigs are just not good enough and one average shooting day by Guy and you can hear it now, a 8 seed upsets Virginia.

We shall see. Nova was once known as chokers. Tony won’t be denied forever. Too good.

I think UVA can go far with the correct machup. FSU was as bad a matchup as they can get. Teams that give UVA issues are teams that are freak athletes that can beat you one on one. Which is why they have struggled with Duke, FSU and even Louisville.

Agreed. Matchups will be as big as ever. Lots of contenders that will need the right path. Can’t wait until Selection Sunday.

agreed and besides 2 years ago this is one of the least athletic uva teams I can remember. they are well coached and play the right way and hit it seems a lot of 3's when they need them but with the pace they play at when they are down pts late those kind of teams have a problem making comebacks. overall its a down year for college bbal but still somebody will beat uva. umbc knifed them up like mercer knifed duke up some years ago in the 1st round I gotta admit it was beautiful to watch.

Carolina has the best value moving forward. You can find them at 11/1 and this team has it all. It took them a couple months to gel the seniors with the freshman, but they’re clicking on all cylinders right now.
