gangreenman Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 ya,,but would have the 3 teams ahead of them blown out ND like UNC did on a nuetral court? I dont think Duke or several other ACC teams would have lost by that much.. So many UNC fans in Hawaii,, haha,,money..UNC grads have lots of moolah like NYJUNC said, lets wait,,rankings mean shiiit this time of year... That court wasn't so neutral... I'd say the percentage of UNC fans to ND fans at that game would be about the same at UNC. Either way though, I don't know what would happen should Uconn/L'ville/Pitt were to go against ND on a neutral court. So far Uconn has been blowing out everyone, including Miami and Wisconsin, away, home, or neutral. I think both UNC and Uconn will be #1 seeds in the NCAA's. If they ever meet each other this year it should be one for the ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the Civic Center seats a lot less than UNC... But UNC fans made up about a good 80% or so of the crowd there. Sort of like how I wouldn't consider the Sprint Center a neutral court when Kansas is playing against an East Coast team like Florida, Cuse, etc... Obviously, more Kansas fans show up when the game is is at Kansas, but there are always by far more Jayhawk fans at the Sprint Center then there are any other team. Also how I wouldn't consider MSG to be neutral when SJU, or Seton Hall, or Syracuse is playing a team like Notre Dame or Louisville... You get the picture.

nyjunc Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 The BE has struggled the last week or so w/ Louisville getting upset, marquette losing back to back games and Gu getting beat up by Tennessee(althought they whipped Maryland over the weekend). Tomorrow night the heels go to Ford Field as part of the annual ACC/Big Ten (No)Challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gangreenman Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 The BE has struggled the last week or so w/ Louisville getting upset, marquette losing back to back games and Gu getting beat up by Tennessee(althought they whipped Maryland over the weekend). Tomorrow night the heels go to Ford Field as part of the annual ACC/Big Ten (No)Challenge. That L'Ville Upset was huge. Gtown did get whooped, but that was to a higher ranked team, so I don't know how much you can criticize them for that. Marquette lost back to back and dropped out of the Coaches rankings, while Syracuse remains unbeaten, and moved into the rankings at #20. That means there are still 7 BE teams in the top 25, and 2 in the "others receiving votes" category. The Big 10 is pretty much a joke basketball conference. MSU and Purdue are both good teams, OSU is decent, but beyond that, there's not much there. Not as bad as the PAC 10 this year, but definitely nowhere near either the ACC or Big East.

nyjunc Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 UConn was impressive last night dismantling a tough Buffalo team by 4:D There's just not another team even close to the Heels this year. Sure in the Tourney anything can happen but the heels are so far and away the best team it's not even worth discussing challengers at this point.

Right now I have to agree nyjunc, there doesnt seem to be any real challengers for that no. 1 spot. Having said that, we still have a loooong season ahead of us, and you know theres bound to be at least a game or two where even great teams like this years UNC let down their guard a little. No doubt about their talent level this year, but its a 35 game season. If they're going to go undefeated they're going to have to pull out some close and ugly ones.

I won't mind if they have a clunker or 2 in the reg season just not in March/April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
