Alright I haven't seen many threads on here for College Basketball and I guess there just aren't too many people interested in it on these forums. Anywho I'd just like to get a thread going on the subject. You can talk about anything you feel like. Why your team should be #1, teams under the radar, who shouldn't be in the top 25, and I mean anything.

Personally I am a huge UC Bearcats fan. My Buckeyes just don't seem to have it lately when it comes to Basketball but the Catz are playing pretty well this year. They are led mainly by Nick Williams, Jason Maxiel, Eric Hicks, Jihad Muhammed, and James White. All of them are VERY streaky players. They will hit everything or miss everything. I believe they're #18 in the Coachs Poll last time I checked.

Wake Forest was a tough loss if anyone pays attention. They just couldn't ever get over the hump and lost by 4 in the last seconds. Chris Paul is simply amazing and should be consider the best player in the country. He hit everything he shot and could dish the ball out. Not to mention he is something like 98% from the charity strip.

Who's your favorite team?

Hey, a fellow UC fan, that's awesome. Just wondering, You Live and Learn, have you/do you live in the Cincinnati area, or are you just a fan from another part of the country? I live just outside of the city, and haven't really found anyone else near me on this board yet.

Anyway, back on topic, I am pretty happy with the way UC has played this year. The Wake Forest game was a dissappointment, but they outplayed us in that game, and we deserved to lose.

The game I am most frusturated about this year is the Louisville game. We went up by 17 on them at one point, and then sat back on our heels and let them come back. I was so upset after that game, my friends and I felt like we wanted to cry .

Other than that, the season looks good, and hopefully we can win C-USA in our last year and make it past the 2nd round of the NCAA tourney. Next year's move to the Big East has me very excited for UC football and Basketball.

I live outside of Cincinnati. The closet BIG landmark I can think of would be Kings Island. Go CATZ!

.....but they blew it again last night...

I hate to say it, but I have a bad feeling they will lose to Xavier again this year. UC is coming off a tough loss, UC is higher ranked, and Xavier has a winning streak going for them. Xavier always seems to beat UC when UC is ranked higher.

Hopefully, though, this year will be different

I left Kansas after graduating high school, but I'm forever to loyal to the KU Jayhawks. They're looking great this year.

Count me in as well. Aside from the Super Bowl, I think March Madness is the most entertaining time of the year in sports.

Last year, I competed in a March Madness bracket game at my college. Not a lot of people competed, perhaps 15 people at most. I ended up taking 1st place since I picked UConn to win it all and I won a T-Shirt.

I don't have a team, really. I wish I did. I used to root for the Hoyas back in the day. A few years back when USC had a good team, I was pulling for them. Past few years i've been rooting for Wake Forest and UNC. You are right about Chris Paul. He's got a very bright future ahead of him.

I really want to see Roy Williams win a national title this year!

::blazed jae::

I hear you on that ScottyBlaze!!!
UNC (#4 ACC) 17-2... DEFENSE was key for North Carolina this season compared to last, and Sean May has become such a great key center along with the awesome new recruit Marvin Williams, and great imput from Jawad Williams, Melvin Scott, Raymond Felton, Rashad McCants, and David Noel... All very skilled players. I can see them winning the championship this year, Roy Williams has done so much as a coach the past 2 years to improve the Tarheels.

I quickly browsed your post and was about to reply saying that you forgot to mention SEAN MAY!!! But I just saw that you did!

If i'm not mistaken (meaning my math skills), in each of their wins this season, they've won by an average margin of 26 and a half points per game!

And now they're ranked #2!

Just thought i'd drop in and see what everyone thought of those Duke Blue Devils losing tonight to Virginia Tech. Very enjoyable game throughout, especially down the stretch with both teams answering each other shot for shot.

They could very well lose their 3rd straight game this Sunday, when they take on those dangerous Demon Deacons.

Hopefully this thread will be more active soon, what with the tournament creeping up around the corner.

Speaking of which, would any of you be interested in doing a March Madness bracket game online? Do chime in either by sending me a PM or leaving a message in the thread. I think it would be fun!
