Can Harangody block shots? Is he going to be handle UConn or Oklahoma's front line by himself?<BR/><BR/>And I hear you saying "they beat Texas, their front line is big". Texas outrebounded ND 44-35 and grabbed 14 offensive rebounds. Notre Dame's guards, specifically Tory Jackson (16, 5, 7 dimes, 3 steal), won that game by outplaying the Texas guards - AJ Abrams was 8-27 and hit three shots in the final minute.Rob Dausterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11844446177379050450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038796146239392494.post-78080901522363980602008-12-10T19:23:00.000-05:002008-12-10T19:23:00.000-05:00Notre Dame with not enough inside?? good call.

They are more balanced and have fewer weaknesses than any of the other teams that I considered. When they play hard they are as good as anyone in the country. And the one thing I forgot to mention is that this team is going to have a bit of a chip on their shoulder after having their bubble burst so often the last few years. If they aren't ready to play in the tourney, then Boeheim needs to retire.<BR/><BR/>@ Andy - This year is so difficult to predict because it is so wide open. Last year, it really was UNC, Kansas, Memphis, UCLA, and then everyone else. This year, it's UNC and everyone else. But hey, its early right? 1 out of 4 at this point ain't that bad...Rob Dausterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11844446177379050450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038796146239392494.post-72324920531081185352008-12-10T15:49:00.000-05:002008-12-10T15:49:00.000-05:00what?>? are you really picking SU for the final...what?>? are you really picking SU for the final 4? i respect that you are getting over your disdain for the mighty Orange(men), but i think its kind of a silly pick. with questions about <BR/>-devo's pimp hand<BR/>-arinze not being as consistent as someone that talented should be<BR/>-playing a tough conference schedule that will leave them with about 7-8 losses and thus might not get a great seed definitely not going to have an easy road in the tourney (assuming they make the NCAA this year as opposed to being fucked over again as in years past)<BR/>-finally, i dont think their defense is that good, besides harris and flynn, they dont really get after and hound people like championship teams do...maybe it will come with time<BR/><BR/>needless to say, i was shocked that a uconn bastard child like yourself would ever put them in your prospective final fourjoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18100881567932778763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038796146239392494.post-35901517056355324912008-12-10T15:18:00.000-05:002008-12-10T15:18:00.000-05:00Interesting.
