Louisville or Michigan?

Michigan! UNLESS: next season will be magical for UConn and the team propels itself into a number one seed by beating the semen out of RP's team next year on the way to getting that one seed. Then I might think about it.

Just thought about it. Go Michigan.
 
My brackets got shot every which way to hell early on, yet I somehow managed to end up with Louisville and Michigan in the finals. For what it's worth, I picked Louisville to beat Michigan by 12. I'd actually rather see Michigan win, but all of the dogs in this fight are not mine. I'll watch, but not root for either.
 
Michigan because of Beilein. He is a fantastic strategist and might be able to find away to pull off the upset. He is the type of coach you would want your son to play for, maybe that is why they have so many players who are the sons of former pros. He is well respected for his coaching and seems to have class. Pitino is a hell of a coach, but class is not a word I would associate with him.
 
Not really bothered either way. Hoping for a good game.

I really dont possess much hatred for Louisville. They did what they had to do during CR and have built a very formidable athletic department. ACC had an opening and they along with UConn and Cincy lobbied for an invitation. They didn't backstab like BC and Pitt. Or totally trash the conference the've been members of for 3 decades like SU fans. They are also not a bunch of lucky sh!ts that have done absolutely nothing for the conference like Rutgers.
 
Although I had Louisville in my bracket to take it all, I'll be rooting for Michigan since daughter graduated from Michigan Law. GO BLUE!

Michigan, Michigan, Michigan and then Michigan.

Anyone who roots for Louisville should be chased from their homes and punched in the throat.

This sums it up for me.

Are you kidding? When it was obvious we were the choice they jumped up and down and screamed "pick me". I have no doubt that negative recruiting was involved as well, which means trashing UConn behind the scenes.
 
Geez there are some very good arguments for me changing my loyalties this evening and going with the Big Blue.............almost making feel guilty about saying Louisville!! LOL

Are you talking about conference here? Because I wish UConn would have done the same. Who cares about sportsmanship in conference realignment. Whatever gets you a seat at the table.

Ok, but imagine Louisville was a person doing this? You'd hate their guts for being such a low rent, low class, shameless self-promoter. I find those people intolerable. They remind me of a sleezy, slimy, lying politician, overselling their qualifications. Plenty of them get elected. The fact that it worked, mostly due to the influence of the other "dumb jock" in the conference, FSU, doesn't change how I feel about them.

fwiw, I think it helps having the NC in our diminished conference next year. And the Ville games might well be the only two conference games worth getting worked up about. So for those reasons, I'm going for Ville.
 
I had picked LVille in a pool so I can't go against that pick now. Alhough I won't be upset if they don't win.
 
Pre tourney, I had Louisville as hoisting the championship trophy. That all changed a week ago on Friday night as the Wolverines started to dictate terms & won after being way behind.
 
Michigan, there was a post here about a couple of months ago asking who could you live with winning a championship, they were my pick.

Oh no doubt. It's a thing to do on a personal level. But we are talking about multi-million (billion) dollar institutions. And feelings aren't a part of it.

Hey, I got no love for 'ville either, I'm just saying I can't hate on them for doing that, because I wish UConn had been waaaay more aggressive than they were in the conference realignment battle.

But I really, really don't want to see UConn "beat the semen" out of anybody.

Nice to take a Pitino dig and make it into something relevant. :)

Even if it dribbled down their leg?
 
My daughter lives in Louisville and both txted & I'd me on Saturday night. I don't think she's ever watched a game, not even at the Kohl Center when she was in Madison. For that reason, I'm neutral and just wanting a good game between the two most deserving teams.
 
I'm not rooting for no stinkin' Big Ten team.

Bad, bad coaching
