George Mason. They beat a good Michigan State team, outlasted a very hot UNC team, took easy care of another mid-major team, and overcame a tremendous comeback by one of the top teams in the country all year while looking as composed as NCAA-tourney perennial. I think out of the four, they've played the best all tournament and they'll have the crowd on their side in Indy. Plus, it's un-Patriotic to root against them.
LSU all the way...since I can't root for Texas anymore. I'd be happy with George Mason though, but no Florida or UCLA
I Cant Root against them. I dont care what the analysts say. Until I see them lose I wont believe it. ALA the New England Patriots 02-05
I am telling you.. GEORGE MASON is going win the NCAA & OLD DOMINION is going to win the NIT It's all about the CAA this year!
I think George Mason will win it. They have proven they are a better team than everybody thought. They knocked of Michigan St. North Carolina And UCONN. Those were some very good teams and they proved to me they can beat good teams.
I like LSU. They know how to play close tournament games and have the power underneath. Are they using NBA refs? It's just bruttal in the paint. Also, if LSU is the national champions; then UH owns a road win over the national champs!!
It's so funny how West Coast basketball is off the radar screen. I love how, all of a sudden, Brandon Roy is a great player after a good NCAA tourney. Fact is, he's been a great player all year in the Pac 10, but I digress ... My pick is UCLA. Any one of these four teams can win it, but I lean UCLA. A few reasons: - Defense wins championships, and their coach (formerly of the Big East) has them playing lock down D. No matter how cold they get, their D can still win ball games for them. - They have great guard play -- a must for a Final Four run - They have an inside/outside game with their center playing his best ball all year - Although nobody outside of Westwood knows it, this team has been ROLLING the past couple weeks. Forget BC, forget UNC -- UCLA was maybe to hottest team in America going into this tourney. They steamrolled their way through the Pac Ten tourney, and Washington and Arizona's performances in the Big Dance prove the conference wasn't *that* bad.
