Dual-Threat Rigby 8,671 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 What are the upsets this time around? LSU over MSU? UT over Purdue? VT over Duke? Aside from VT, I think we’d be the biggest upset I can think of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re a problem defensively, but literally anything is preferable to us playing UK again, although they look suspect without Washington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think the style would be favorable to us compared to UK. I watched last half of the Houston-Ohio State game and thought Houston played extremely well. With that said, I don’t like the famaliarity that Kentucky has on us. Coach Self basically said our tape doesn’t do our quickness any justice and it left them reeling. Sure we are familiar with Kentucky as well but by default, when all other things are equal, I think the team with the superior athletes hold edge.

WeagleTheBeagle 60 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 If we manage to beat Kansas and UNC, bring on Kentucky, Viriginia, and Duke. Don't want Houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURex 1,998 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 After a previous round with pretty much only the teams moving forward that were expected to move forward, there could be a couple of upsets in the sweet 16. Upsets I'm looking forward to -- Florida State over Gonzaga Texas Tech over Michigan I don't see Houston taking out Kentucky and don't want it to happen. Slimy "Sump Dump" Sumlin should not coaching anywhere, anytime. Of course, if Auburn could upset UNC, that would take the prize for this tourney.

gr82be 14,425 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Just realized that my dislike for FSU football has spread to basketball. Didn't know I cared who won until I turned the game on. It became clear immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdgeneration 6,469 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Seems like the only one playing well for UT is Cole's cousin. I've gotta root for them since half my family are UT fans. GBO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
