    Pitt and Notre Dame are both outstanding... And a ton of the Big East teams are capable of getting hot.

    Carolina is heating up at the right time, they could make a run in the tournament.

    UNC no...take away their home court and they are any old team. They have absolutely 0 good wins on the road or neutral court this year.

    UNC would get beat up in the big east. Too young. PITT and ND clearly better.

    UNC would lose to Syracuse, Louisville, Wvu, Cincinnati (at home) and probably other BE teams. Syracuse and Louisville would out shoot them, and Wvu would be too physical. Cincinnati at home just doesn't lose.

    Big east is the NBA-light.

    I am loving it.

    I have been a fan of both for about 30 years. Seriously.

    NC is not even the best team in their own conference.

    Let's hope they do not get in a bracket with George Mason or Xavier.

    I agree. UNC isn't as impressive away from Home Court. Depending on seeding, they will win a few rounds in the tourny

    Let's not over-rate the Big east please. This is getting out of hand. Notre Dame could easily make an early exit, they still are not even close to an elite defensive team. And even a hot shooting team could give Pitt a run for their money with the scoring slumps they go on.

    As far as UNC goes, to say their the nation's 2nd best team is a stretch. Top 15, as where they are ranked, is exactly fitting. 3 seed if they show up to the tournament. And will probably be in close games each NCAA tourney game, I do love Kendall Marshall though.

    And I agree, OSU is the best team in the nation.

    If a team that turns it over 20+ times in one game (including 14 in one half) is the nation's best team, then God help us.

    Ohio state is just tearing apart teams. They will make a deep run in the tourny.

    Duke is trash. They have to make at least 14 threes to compete on the road. They will lose their 3rd game in the tourny.

    I mean what impressive "True" road win does Duke have this year?

    None of that changes the fact that Duke would be -4,5 over UNC on neutral court, and when asked things like who is "better", I always look at things from that gambling perspective.

    Perdont was one of the best two until the Iowa flop.

    I was looking forward to what BYU could or couldnt do but thats irrelevent now.

    Kentucky's young talent could explode in the tournament or a second round fizzle.

    Ohio State easy pick...second best for tourney chances....Syracuse might get freaky hot

    They are overvalued.

    UNC should have won that game @Duke, but predictably Duke was bailed out by the refs. Shooting 20 FT's in the 2ndH alone.

    +4.5. I would consider that a gift.

    At least our debate here about who is the best team will be settled in the tournament unlike college football.

    Ohio State and Pitt are the two best teams in the country. That would be one heck of a National Championship game.

    Agreed. The only other teams that have been nearly as dominant as those two are Texas and Kansas. Texas is poorly coached (as always) and can't be trusted to win close games because of their atrocious free throw shooting down the stretch. Kansas is well coached and has a great front line but has fairly bad guard play. Self is changing their starting lineup this late in the season because he knows they have no shot of going far if he is giving minutes to Taylor & Selby.

    I really don't see how anyone can say the best team in the country is not Ohio State. They have dominated teams, in arguably the best conference. They are the only team in college basketball without a bad loss. They lost @ Wisconsin and @ Purdue, both top 15 teams. And they were up by 15 in the second half against Wisconsin. This team will make it very far.

    the difference of course being that you could not get in even three rounds of a CFB playoff during the length of time that it takes CBB to play six rounds (19 days).
