NCAA Tourney - 1st Round Upsets
- Thread starter Taxman
- Start date
West Kentucky sends home #5 Illinois. WKU is a tough, tourney tested team and Illinois' play has dropped way off since mid-season.
Temple sends home #6 Ariz St. Temple just more overall talent.
Maryland sends home #7 Cal. Maryland playing best ball of their season and won't allow Cal to beat them with the 3.
Tex A&M sends home #8 BYU. Athleticism.
VCU sends home #6 UCLA. Bruins can shoot but rarely stayed focused for a full 40 minutes.

i'm sensing that nobody believes in the pac-10
imho, ucla isnt losing to vcu
vcu has 1 good player and that conf was down this year and they didnt dominate it. ucla has upper classmen who have tons of experince and howland on the sidelines
think asu can get it done vs temple as well, pendergraph will have his way with olmas (sp) down low and harden/christmas will offset each other.
wash has great guard play and should win in portland
cal....great guards no inside play...should be an even matchup with md...no chance vs memphis
love sc...if they come prepared and focused they have tons of athleticism and length and can play defense, not much beef inside but can disappear offensively at times
arizona-utah is a tough one.....we match up well athletically with them but that type of team always give arizona problems....halft court, slow it down, execute on offense, keep the game in the 60's,
fuk it.....arizona gets a break, gets in, has time to rest and heal injuries( hills ankle has been bothersome for a few weeks) and beats utah by dd!

Agree with you GJN.
Fishy line:
Florida st. -3 over Wisky...
Wisconsin is brutal and probably shouldn't even be here versus a red hot FSU squad who overmatches them athletically and talent-wise.
Although, FSU did get crushed by Northwestern earlier this year.
taking Wisky to win :scared
