If we go to the elite 8, we can beat Duke. Flagg is fantastic, but I don't think they have the kind of over all talent surrounding him that Florida does. They are probably more like Auburn. Then the final 4 would be a Houston team that we have already beaten once. Somebody slap me before I get foolish here.

Im usually more of a cup half full type than a wet blanket, but I think it really revolves around if Nelson is healthy enough to play and make an impact. I don't know much about Wisconsin, but BYU is scary athletically. Never thought I would say that.

If we slapped you everytime you said something foolish, you'd have been in the hospital a long time ago.

No brace or ice on Nelson now. Hopefully that’s a positive sign (I’m grasping at straws).

I see UNC made it on their name alone.

What a joke, given that shite schedule and 1-12 record vs Quad 1 teams.

I've been saying for a few months that I expect to see Duke upset in the tournament. And that's mostly based on the age. I just don't trust freshmen in March, and their team is based around them. Since the season happened, Flagg hasn't shown himself to be clutch in tough games, and Duke hasn't played anyone worth a damn since December.

Hopefully we'll get a chance to defend my rambling assumptions.

If it’s just swollen, wonder why he has to see the specialist tomorrow?

I think that State/Baylor could knock off Duke.

I always had a soft spot for State. Really enjoyed their final four run with Dampier, Dontae Jones and Daryl Wilson. That was a solid team and it wasn't a fluke.

But man, as soon as they play a team with any type of name value these days, they fold quick

If Nelson is unable to play, or is limited, it’s going to be very tough. A healthy Grant Nelson and Bama is in the Elite 8 or even Final 4. Without him, the round of 32 will be difficult.

Probably to see why it's swollen.

I don’t like State at all. They were bad down the stretch. I’m fading them. For a surprise SEC team to make a run, I like Ole Miss. Iowa St. has dealt with a lot of injuries. I could see Ole Miss in Sweet 16.
