Only opinion of course:
Here's how I woulld describe today's the top potential NCAA championship field.

* A genuine Turkey-Shoot.
The term likely originates from a method of hunting wild turkeys in which the hunter, coming upon a flock, intentionally scatters them.

The Books are slobbering from their mouths like never before.
Only Baylor seems to have the killer-instint, to me?

Gonzaga: They played a cupcake last night, a team with one center who scored 2 points in 13 minutes of play. And he wasn't in foulf trouble.
I still do not see what I call, "muscle and hustle" around the basket.
The Bigs only played a total of 41 minutes, combined. Good, huh? Timme and Nemrod, [Holmgren] Will they be conditioned enough to play 35 minutes a game, come March? And I haven't seen that killer instinct, either.

Duke: They are favored by [what] 15 points a home, and lose?
I was thinking this team had that muscle-hustle? Now, back to the turkey-shoot.

Purdue: They have a giant and big-sized bulk under the basket. #1 bulky, big senior Williams goes -6-10, 265 and averages 13.5 pnts. and 8.8 rbs., at 20 mnutes a game.

#2, The Big-UN, 7-4 Soph, Edey, a Canadian. And no, no slender Nemrod do we have here, he goes at 295 lbs.
Yet, he only averages 17 minutes a game and played just 9 minutes last night.
But the giant has some solid quality to his game. Averaging 15 pnts. and 7.4 rbs., while packing that 295 lbs.
If Purdue starts ripping up their opponents during the next 5-7 weeks, this team should be #1 right there with Baylor? They will be #2 Monday. You bet bet on that.

My next team to analyze and see as a major threat is Mr. Anonymous? You tell me?
* That's it. Baylor and Purdue for the marbles, well, unless that little infamous killer shows up quite often for a superior hot shooting team, come tourament time?

Oh, that would be Mr. Anonymous, bringing along his deadly-loaded, side shooter, the Killer-Three?

We need to see more play to decide. All of them have weaknesses, and can and will lose if their opponents are high-grade and hot shooting any particular game. Look at Duke's loss last night. Very disappointing. Don't pay attention to the rankings this soon. The rankings are meaningless temporary opinions. Baylor's schedule is not as hard as most other high-ranking squads.
Look at it coming up. There are a couple big games, but their schedule is not a strong indication of what will happen in the Sweet Sixteen. You know they rank 10th on strength-of-schedule, and Purdue is even worse at 18th. Baylor isn't even playing any team that ranks higher than them on SoS this season. Their steepest SoS opponent will be Kansas who is 14th SoS.

A full analysis cannot be crunched with any numbers. It's about the times in flow of play that Baylor was getting beat in stretches this is what coaches watch in the tapes to see how they can exploit any vulnerabilities. Coaching will be very key because the physical differences and mental aptitudes do not create gulfs of difference in the top teams. It's the coordinated PLAN that wins. A team like Gonzaga does things a team like Baylor doesn't... in ball movement and offensive design.

I don't want to neglect Baylor's chances. I just wish they had a better mix of opponents on their schedule. I will tell you right now that Purdue doesn't have what it takes. I'm doubting that Duke does, either.

[ABEHONEST]

I see.
Okay, I will keep this in mind and yes, plenty of time to try and discover a real gem that may get hot.
I hope so because it's boring to me when we have no teams butchering thier opponents like the "old-days."
Now, we have players jumping in and out of teams like jumping-beans.
And those killer-threes are still keeping our fans and gamblers in suspense.

This world of basketball we see now, is fast becoming a bundle of college basketball teams, locked into a symmetry mode.
All too similar in strengths and weaknesses.

Duke is one of worst coached teams in America the last 5 years

Zero shot to win

Have the players too

Baylor in a league of their own followed by Purdue

[Brock Landers]

Guy doesn't even mention Arizona, who are loaded at every position.

Gonzaga is garbage

Wow! JJ, you talk like you genuinely know this. Hmm, I like their two bigs, so, back to watching much closer.
A surprising opinion by JJ.

*I need to go check Baylor's size now.

Bring those player's names straight down by the stats. 1-8
No center for Baylor, but watch out, they have 3 large studs at forward, #6, #7, and #8, above.
All around 6-9 and the 240 lb mark.

*Baylor is even more solid [looking] than I thought.
** Only a gambling Vet will be able to decipher those stats correctly.

Brock, if this your team, show us some believable stats?
And I was looking for other opinions.

*JJ, says the Zags are still Bookie chaulk and you say garbage?
We need an idea behind the garbage opinion?

Arizona?
They are not good enough at hitting those killer-threes. Forget it!
