Guest DrTom Report post Posted March 31, 2002 Maryland showed Kansas that the ACC is the home of DOMINANT!~ college hoops. You might be 60-0 against those "Big" 12 schools, but that all changes when the b-ball is Atlantic Coast style. Juan Dixon showed he's a better big-game player than Jason Williams, despite Williams winning most of the awards simply because of the school he attends, and the writers sucking his dick as a result. Dixon makes that free throw agaisnt Indiana, you choking little bitch. Honestly, I don't think Indiana can hang with the Terps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest cabbageboy Report post Posted March 31, 2002 You sound like Vitale the way you shill the ACC. Call it a weird hunch but I think Indiana will beat Maryland tomorrow night. They've got this whole "Arizona fluke champ" vibe going. After all, Maryland has been known to choke in big games. Last night was a big game admittedly, but Kansas are usually bigger chokers anyway. I dunno, against UK Maryland looked ok but didn't scream out national champion. I figure if they put Fife on Dixon and get Baxter in foul trouble Indiana can certainly win.

Guest kkktookmybabyaway Report post Posted March 31, 2002 Oh, so Ind. and Md. won? I stopped watching the FF during halftime of the first game when that bitch Lesley Visser asked the OK coach during a halftime show how it felt being the first Native-American to guide a team this far in the tourney! CAN'T WE JUST STOP TALKING ABOUT RACE FOR ONCE WHENEVER SOMEONE ACCOMPLISHISHES SOMETHING Denzel Washington/Halle Berry, you two just won Oscars. How does it feel to be credits to your race? Venus (or was it Serena?) you just won Wimbledon. How does it feel to be a credit to your race? Kelvin Sampson you just took a team to the Final Four. How does it feel to be a credit to your race? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HH HH! OK, I feel better. Sorry about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted April 1, 2002 Indiana is going to win it all. The players want to show Bobby Knight that they didn't need him and will be motivated enough to win their third upset. Maryland is playing like a team that is looking for the chance to choke...like they do every tournament. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted April 1, 2002 "You sound like Vitale the way you shill the ACC." I thought it was rather obvious that I was a MD fan, especially since I've mentioned hailing from MD in several posts on this board. Indiana has beaten some teams they should have lost to "on paper," true. But looking at it objectively, MD simply has too much depth. Their second five could be the first five for a lot fo schools. Dixon always finds a way to get open and score, especially in big games, and they've proven they can win without Baxter being a significant factor. In fact, a more athletic frontcourt of Wilcox, Holden, and Mouton would serve them better sometimes, but it's hard to fault Gary for sticking with a senior who got his jersey retired.

Guest cabbageboy Report post Posted April 1, 2002 Maryland is just a team that has always choked in the big ones....they are the Jericho of basketball, but tomorrow they have a chance to beat the Rock and get the monkey off their back. I don't know why Indiana is my pick tomorrow, just a feeling. It's kinda like when U of L beat Duke in 1986 despite all logic going for the Devils. Besides, Maryland has only impressed me once the whole tourney, when the killed Wisconsin. I think it boils down to this: You don't beat Duke the weird way IN did and then job to Maryland. It makes no sense and it is bad booking. Haha! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest imajackoff? Report post Posted April 1, 2002 IU can win the game if they have a great nite shooting. The equivalent of a "puncher's chance" in boxing, IU has the "shooter's chance". With that said, I dont think MD will let that happen. Juan Dixon is one tough little bastard. And he looks pretty determined. But then again, Im biased.
