Also, watch out for Carolina... Marcus Paige has been playing extremely well as of late, and they have the size to match Wisconsin. Wouldn't be surprised in Carolina advances.

Michigan State looking like a really, really good underdog pick to me...

th

I like them because they are underdogs and I want them to win because I hate Notre Dame (quit squalling burm I don't like them no matter how much you run your yap :D )

Although I do have a complaint...Why are they waiting to almost 10 PM EST to play the WVU/Kentucky game when both teams are in the East Time zone and know that people have to work the next day....grrrr

I was shocked (get it?) when the schedule came out and our game was the early game. That makes zero sense. Really pulling for WVU...then again is anyone pulling for Kentucky?

I love Carolina but they have taken a major hit with the injury to Meeks. Saying knee sprain and he's a game time decision but we all know that they always say knee sprain if they don't know the extent or don't want to make it public. I am not sure they can beat Wisconsin without Meeks.

ND wins and UK puts an epic beat down on WVU... That was a complete crapper of a night.

I like UNC too, so ... yeah.

There was no way WVU was going to beat Kentucky, but if you can't even make a basket (18-2) you can't beat anybody.
I thought we overachieved to beat Maryland.

I think the only chance a team has to beat Kentucky (other than Kentucky beating themselves)...is if the other team gets hot and shoots a good deal of threes.

because kentucky plays tight man to man defense it is really hard to hit 3s on them.

How does Kentucky and Calipari get their players so good so fast? Calipari has to be in the discussion of best all time coaches after this season.

Would not be shocked if he starts looking at NBA gigs again.

If he goes undefeated (which would of course mean a title)...he might decide to start flirting with the NBA again.
