CatnipOligarchy Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 Anyone see that game last night? Defending champs go down 61-59. UConn was down 4 with about 30 secs to go, tied it up, then Massachusetts made a layup with about 4 seconds to go to win the game. UConn had a shot at a 3 to win it but it hit the front of the rim. Great game. Connecticut isnt nearly the force they were last season. I like Georgia Tech again this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kak Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 Its too early to tell who is going to be the best team. Every team is going to have their share of upsets. I didn't see the game but I heard it was a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted December 10, 2004 Veteran Share Posted December 10, 2004 uconn looked shaky against indiana too... uconn definitely isn't the team they were last year. dude the illini look so scary right now it's not even funny. it's their championship to lose at this point. if they are on, there isn't a single team that could come within 15 pts of winning.

mattmatik Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 North Carolina will win it...you heard it here first. Roy Williams is using the early season out-of-conference schedule to get his bench some quality minutes and they've found some very good talent as deep as 9 on the roster.

They'll need to beat Duke, Wake Forest, Maryland, etc. They will lose some of those, especially on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted December 11, 2004 Veteran Share Posted December 11, 2004 i still don't think duke, nc, or any of those guys will take illinois. their backcourt is just too good. and you saw what they did to the supposedly best team in the acc, as well as gonzaga. we're talking 30+ pt leads before illinois pulled their starters...

BroChaos Veteran Posted December 11, 2004 Veteran Share Posted December 11, 2004 i know, thats what everybody says...but i dunno, something feels different about this team. in the past, they've choked the very next game after becoming a #1 seed...
