Gotta love the Big 11-- they can't count very well (still calling themselves Big 10) and could be done by Sunday night. But I got Bucknell right

Wasn't the Big Ten rated higher than the Big East or ACC this year with regard to overall Strength?

The way I figure it, any team that the golden rodents beat can't be going too far!

MM Where did moberg go to High School?

I dont remeber which HS he went to, but remember seeing him in the BU Holdiday tourney and liked his play.

MW-- I didnt exactly heap praise on Schafer...I merely said he is better than what most of the MIAC has as far as in-the-paint presences...part of that is his height, and part is because he isn agile enough to do much outside the paint....hence he is wearing cardinal & blue

smander--- the RPI/Strength fo schedule BS is skewed to favor the BCS conferences. Granted the ACC & SEC usually do well in the tourney, but the Big 11 & Pac 10 have been a tad overrated in my opinion. Gimme the Mo Valley over Big 11 this year...the superbig east is too big a conference to be measured. 16 teams?? hell, why not just expand to 64 teams?

I'll pull a MM and post twice in a short period of time to get my post # up......

( Just kidding MM) I think Schafer is one of the top posts in the league with the loss of Forkrud. Schafer is top three and no lower. Ike is number one far and away but there is no one that can compete C. Schafer inside. He is solid and will be able to finish inside with anyone next year.

Damn....I wake up and see Kansas took a poop and got dropped by Bradley!! Also, Sumander got lucky and picked George Mason to bad he didn't have the stones to pick it in his bracket

Careful there MW! Jealousy will get you nowhere.

sumander · March 18, 2006, 05:33:13 PM

MW, What do you think of the Indiana v. Gonzaga matchup? Can the Hoosiers hang with them? I think most of the higher seeds got their wakeup call in the first round. I look for most of them to prevail in round 2.

SUMMIT!!!!! · March 18, 2006, 06:36:15 PM

sumande-- even tho you asked MW, I'll weigh in--- I see 'Zaga thumping Ind. I dont think the Hoosies belong in the tourney.

Gotta love them Shockers!!!!

I think you are right MM, Indiana may have only one shot and that is playing with the thought that their coach is done if they lose. I still don't think that will be enough. Zags by a bunch.

Sumander- Do you think your new favorite team (George Mason

) Can knock off the Heels tomorrow?? I think once was enough for GM and the underclass dominated heels will roll

Go Shockers is right.
