AZ is the new Pitt

That's one less win AZ will have to forfeit.

Az is in worse shape than Pitt. Likely going to be hit by sanctions. Pitt is at least a full 13 schollys.

And to say I had Arizona winning the whole damn thing..!! Damn y I listen to all the analysts saying there a complete team lol... damn uconn ... looking forward to us getting back n I can go all in on them!!

Question ? Would uconn be better team if they had a better offensive minded coach or a guy who preaches defense defense defense with slight movement on offense

If only they were gonna use them, eek

Literally the only similarity between Pitt and AZ is under-performing -relative to regular season performance- in March ending at or before the EE, at times in embarrassing fashion

Pitt had a good coach who built and developed great teams with mostly players like Gary McGhee, Lavance Fields, DeJuan Blair, and Ashton Gibbs. Miller bought his way in to top 5 talent every year. And while Pitt was in the upper echelon of the Old Big East, Miller’s teams have dominated a generally weaker Pac 12, probably overall no better than the fourth best conference over the course of his tenure

I think a more apt comparison would name them diet diet diet diet imitation Kansas

I wouldn't be so sure.

Kentucky hit 0 (zero!) 3-pointers in their game today v. Davidson.
Buffalo hit 14 v. Arizona.

if there's a recipe for an upset, I'd say that's it.

Gotta be some regression to the mean no?

But I liked how Buffalo played. Tough as nails.

I could see Buffalo beating Kentucky if they shoot well again. 3-point shooting can make up for a whole lot of talent/size differential.

I think UK is gonna play some defense though. Arizona didn't seem to bother half the time.

I'm getting pumped to watch this game.
