I was just soo shocked, mind you this is after a ton expect a blowout, 20+ point win, etc. I get it, most people on boards are the extreme fans and homers but sheesh, NBA?! lol..

And FAU can absolutely pull it off. They are a team who can play anyway as they have legit size, and wing play/shooters. They are legit and can win it all in a one off game with any of these three teams left.

I'd much rather play SDSU then FAU, if we make the finals.

well the first doesn’t make sense , but the team to me seems to be too loose , like they’re just happy to be there don’t care if they win or lose . But I know that’s just how this team is so idk

Coach L always preaches “just have fun”. I think it’s good. Takes the pressure off some. They definitely want to win, but when you’re in the moment, just enjoy it. All the work they did to win was put in over the last year.

There's always one person that's dumb enough to say something as ridiculous as that. I rather doubt many on the UConn board agree that UConn could beat some NBA teams. The mere thought of it is absurd, equally as absurd as saying the UConn women's team could beat some men's teams (which has also been said over the years).

There's a lot of talk in this thread about UConn being anointed a super team and the prohibitive favorite to win the National Championship. Just remember, it's the media talking heads saying that, not the UConn players. I'm sure they'd prefer the media just shut their mouths. I'm pretty sure the players know this isn't going to a cakewalk by any stretch of the imagination. I also don't think any UConn fan with even a remote sense of reality believes that either. I know I don't. Yes, UConn is a very good team (as is Miami). They have the ability to beat anyone in the country. Having watched every game this year, they also have the ability to lose to any team in the country. "Good" UConn is on a bit of a roll right now. But, you never know when "Bad" UConn will show up. Personally, I don't like the long layoff between the regional finals and the Final Four. It's a momentum killer. However, it affects both teams so I guess all is equal.

I'm looking forward to a close game. I'm not sure my old nerves will be able to take it. It should be a very entertaining game to watch. So many really good players will be on the court. I'm also looking forward to the other game. Can FAU pull it off?

Welcome! We've been waiting for you to show up.

The cycle is now complete.

Let's face it, these teams were seeded too low, but there was a reason they were seeded the way they were in the first place.

Should be a great game. I think Miami wins bc of more scoring options and Norchad will play the big guy tougher than expected.

he is key. But if I am the opposing coach I am looking to get him in foul trouble early to get him on the bench

Boys shooting well in the big stadium. Was at the UConn and Butler practice in 2011 here and you could tell they were not going to shoot well.
