Kentucky: The Wildcats are overrated.
They are a good team with a solid group
of players, but I don't see them getting
the job done during Tourney Time. Alabama
is looking to pull the rug out from under
Kentucky, and take the top spot in the division.
If this happens it will be a sign of things
to come for the Cats. What do you think
about that Meow?
Texas
Tech: The fluke win over Kansas in a
double overtime barnburner has many people
praising Coach Knight's team. If the Red
Raiders make it to the Sweet Sixteen I'd
be stunned. Though Coach Knight always manages
to put together winners, more often than
not he loses a handful of games to lesser
teams during the year. This doesn't bode
well for The Big Dance. A solid team attack
shows what Knight can do for his team, three
guys averaging 3+ assists, 4 guys averaging
12+ points a game, and 5 guys averaging
more than 3 boards a game. The recent loss
to Iowa State shows what happens more often
than not to Knight's teams.
Louisville:
A home of another really good coach (Patino),
and a real solid team assault, (5 guys averaging
10+ points) the Cardinals might be ready
to stumble down the stretch. They've played
plenty of close games against mediocre talent
this year, but it might be too much to place
them here. Like the Wildcats, they are a
very good team. But some good teams have
to stumble; Louisville looks to me like
one of those teams. Francisco Garcia is
really good.
