KU vs UNC

I'm stoked for this game - should be a dandy. I think it's the "title game" as well.

Should be some fun match-ups between these two teams!

KU plays like they did today and UNC will run them out of the gym.

KU should play with a little more heart and enthusiasm against UNC

Re: KU vs UNC

NC is a 2.5 pt favorite right now...

This should be the national championship game.

Re: KU vs UNC

Both Memphis and North Carolina have been playing lights out during the tournament. If there is a long shot to win the national championship I would consider that Kansas deserves that distinction. Consequently, I wouldn't consider the North Carolina - Kansas game to be the national championship game.

Re: KU vs UNC

The winner has to beat 2 #1 seeds. That's fun.

Also, I think UNC/Memphis are easily the best two teams left. Davidson was a neat story, but they weren't that great, and they exposed Kansas. UCLA - one good game does not a tournament make. Memphis disposes of them.

Re: KU vs UNC

Memphis is going to have their poor free throw shooting catch up to them at one point. They haven't really been involved in any close games, as I recall, and will be ill-prepared to win the close game.

Just what about Davidson makes you think they "weren't that great?" Would it be their 29-3 record, their top-25 ranking, or the fact that they lost by a combined 3 points to two final four teams?

I'm sure you and I both would kill to have our teams be "not that great."

That being said, I hope Kansas gets throttled, but I wouldn't say they got "exposed" tonight. Davidson played some of the best D that I've seen this year.

Don't know where you got the 29-3 record, because they were 26-6. They also started the season 4-6, with losses against Wester Michigan, Charlotte, Duke, UNC, NC State, and UCLA.

I'm not saying they weren't good. They throttled a good UW team and beat some other good teams on their way to the EE. However, I'd compare them to a watered down George Mason. They had hardly any inside presence, and had it not been for Curry, they would have been knocked out in the 2nd round.

They were good, but nothing more than a really good story.

Re: KU vs UNC

I don't think this is the "title" game. I think all 4 of these teams have obviously proved their name should be in the "title" game.
