What are your predictions of the ncaa tournament, from final 4 to championship?

Answer 1

UCLA v. Florida - I think this rematch is going to be slightly different from the last years championship game. If you remember in 1991 when Duke defeated UNLV, a year removed from their 30pt beating in the Final Four. I think in the same manner, UCLA will defeat UCLA despite all the odds. Florida is deeper, they shoot better, rebound better, have a better coach, probably even the best players on the court are Gators. Regardless, somehow UCLA has overcome the odds all tourney especially against Kansas. People said they couldnt score with Kansas but they didnt have to..they got Kansas to play sloppy and UCLA's defense held KU to a poor shooting percentage and Afflalo made big shot after big shot and in this game I believe somehow, some way UCLA will find a way to win...on the shoulders of Mr. Afflalo.

Georgetown v. Ohio St.- You can say both of these teams are the teams of destiny. Down 20 to Tennesee with every shot going in for the Vols, Ohio St. somehow finds a way to win. Down 9 with 5 minutes to go agaisnt Xavier and your best player fouling out late in the game, the Buckeyes found a way to win. Down 1 against Vandy, tripled team, Jeff Green somehow banks in a shot catapulting the Hoyas to victory. Down 10 with 5 to go in the game, the Hoyas rally back against a deeper UNC team and go on a 26-6 run to propel themselves to victory. In the end, I think this battle will not be settled in the paint because Hibbert and Oden are basically going to battle to a stand still. I think it comes down to the best perimeter player on the floor and that distinction belongs to Jeff Green of G-Town...he can do it all and will lead the Hoyas to the title game.

UCLA- Georgetown- The title all comes down to these teams. Both teams play extraordinary defense. Georgetown is bigger and stronger inside but UCLA has the guards in Shipp, Afflalo and Collinson on the outside. I think UCLA has come to far to come up short this year and the Bruins will be cutting down the net, riding the back of Mr. Afflalo

Answer 3

Florida. There was a reason Joakim Noah, Al Horford, and Corey Brewer turned down NBA milliions to stay in college and that was to win another championship. With their goal only 2 games away I just don't see them being denied. Florida has everything it takes to be a champion. They are extremely balanced with all their starters averaging double figures and having reached 1000 points for their college basketball careers, they are poised, and they can play stingy defense. When teams play the gators it its usually a matter of pick your poison. You can double their bigs, but then risk Florida draining 3's and scoring from the perimeter or you can really try to extend your defense and try to take away the 3 pointer, but then the opponent will be letting the Florida bigs dominate from inside the paint.

My prediction: Both Florida and Ohio State advance and Florida ends the Buckeye's season the same way the Buckeye football team ended their season... with a loss to the gators!

Answer 4

Your Xavier pick is going to be a colossal disappointment. I think Xavier gets knocked off by Portland State in the first round. We'll see tomorrow. But I can't argue with your other three picks. I picked Memphis to win it all. I think they have what it takes. They may not be the best or most talented team, but I picked them because I HATE going with the mainstream popular picks like Louisville or North Carolina. So I went with a team that can win it all, but is under the radar a bit. In my Final Four, I have Memphis beating Louisville, and Pitt beating Gonzaga. And I have Memphis winning it all.

Answer 5

florida over ucla...the gators have too much firepower for the bruins, their shooting will be too much for them to overcome and will set up noah and horford on the inside

georgetown over ohio state...the hoyas will play better defense than they played much of the unc game, hibbert will contain oden and no one on ohio state can defend jeff green one-on-one

georgetown over florida...hibbert will cause problems for noah and horford on the inside, and will create shooting opportunities for other guys on the outside...green will have his chances against corey brewer because brewer is a great on-ball defender, but does not defend quite as well against the shot, which is something green does well also...the hoyas will control the tempo and force florida to play in the halfcourt for 40 minutes, which favors g'town tremendously, and they will cut down the nets
