Stoudemire has been talking shit about OSU and Daniel Bobik. Yeah he'd better keep his damn mouth shut. Bobik is a good player and he held Jameer Nelson who was the player of the year to like 4 of 16. Sure Stoudemire will drop some 3's but they're looking to take him and Frye completely out of the game and make the rest of Zona beat them.

Plus if Joey Graham has a great game then OSU may have it.

I think Arizona is going to run all over OSU.

What basis exactly do you have for this? This game will probably be a close game no matter who wins.

 

To deny the talent and ability that OSU has to compete is just foolish. Plus if Joey Graham, Jameson Curry, and John Lucas all have big games with the entire team playing defense which is not far fetched at all then they are nearly unstoppable.

Arizona just doesn't have the tools to get it done I think. Bobik will be in Stoudemire's face the entire game and they will get physical with him and he gets rattled when people get physical with him and then they're going to push Frye out and not let him get inside forcing the rest of Zona to pick up the slack.

Illinois 72

UW Milwaukee 53

 

Washington 80

Well you were pretty good at football predictions. Maybe basketball isn't your strong suit.

Nah, I've been good in the past. Last year, I had almost everything right except that I didn't think UConn would beat Duke. It's just that this tournament, I've been terrible. If you just picked the 1 seeds to win, and then flipped a coin for all the other games, you probably would have beat me for the first two rounds.

By the way, I have to say that Louisville's been extremely impressive during this tournament. I watched them play a few times throughout the year, and they didn't seem anything like this. It seems like whenever anybody gets them to miss a shot and then gets a defensive rebound without fouling, it's a frigging miracle. They're offense looks a lot better than Carolina's right now.

 

I'm still hoping for them to lose, because my main competition in my money pool has them in the Final Four, and that's probably part of why I picked them to lose tonight, but their offense has been crazy.

Illinois and L'ville have been un-human.

Washington though is playing just as well when they actually screw their heads on right.

 

And the Panthers haven't played horrid either.

2 for 2 tonight... Let's see Oklahoma State put down the Wildcats so I can max it out at 3 of 4. (Texas Tech knocked out Gonzaga, so I can't score in the Tech-West Virginia game)

I'm not gonna come here and talk shit about U of L owning Washington tonight....I think most here (Iggy aside) figured we'd punk them out. I was so non plussed about it tonight that I didn't even feel the need to go to a sports bar or to anyone's house.

 

The only thing that worries me at all about Sat. is that Dean might have a sprained ankle...fuck. Can we never catch a break? This sounds like the last time U of L got this far and DeJuan Wheat hurt his ankle. That said, I don't see Carolina waiting to maul an undermanned U of L on Sat. I see TX Tech or WVU, a 6 and 7 seed respectively.

Well just let him hit a 3! At least OSU was able to bring it close. Now they need a huge second half. Especially out of Joey Graham and John Lucas!
