    I'm thinking of having a decent bet on villanova tonight, based on their semi final win over oklahoma. Defensively they looked awesome and im in the camp that says they didn't allow oklahoma to play rather then oklahoma didn't show up. I've had minimum exposure to college bb over here but I'm going to be in the casino playing cards, the game will be on tv so I'm thinking why not? Is that villanova form line through oklahoma and Kansas a better form line then NC have produced or am I way off?

    That implies they actually take classes.

    Villanova has definitely been more impressive to this point. They beat tougher opponents and of course that win over OU was absurd.

    Biggest issue is that UNC has legitimate size, like an NBA team. Villanova has only one big.

    Thanks for that it's appreciated. One last question, how feasible is it that the villanova "smalls" move the bigger UNC boys around the court and open driving/scoring lanes or will villanova have to do it all from the outside?

    They're smaller but they won't have to do it all from the outside. They should be able to get some easier looks, too.

    The big concern is rebounding and defense. Keep UNC off the offensive glass especially.

    The times size really shows is often on those putback dunks.

    Would really like to see Nova win. But gambling purposes will have me rooting for UNC.

    Nope still here.

    Getting married at Madison Hotel (Morristown) in August.

    Glad these assholes finally paved Ridgedale.

    Edit: I have a blue WRX with "Cuse" plates. Drive around frequently

    Announcers whining about the refs. Maybe the players should stop committing obvious fouls? Forcing the refs to make calls.

    What a poorly officiated game. These guys should try out for the NBA , they'd be an improvement.
