UMichigan vs. Villanova

UMichigan vs. Villanova

1. Who do you want to win ?

2. Who do you predict will win ?

3. Do you care who wins or losses ?

 

[Kemba429]

1. Michigan
2. Nova
3. No

 

[JimHurley]

1. Don’t hate either team but I’ll say Michigan since they are the underdog and Nova has won a NC recently anyway
2. Villanova by 6-10 points
3. Not really. Both teams are respectable

 

[jcp33]

1. Michigan

2. Villanova

3. Don't care who wins, both coaches are class acts. And even if Nova wins their 3rd they're still behind us

 

[4in16]

Neither...cause Villanova would only be 1 title behind us with 3 and Michigan winning ends the Big Ten’s almost 20 year title drought. Slight edge to Nova gun to the head as the more likable program.

 

[Danzz]

1. Nova
2. Nova by 8
3. Yes

 

[BugsyCT]

1. Nova I guess - we'd still have 4 titles to their 3, and as much as Northeast college FB is a joke in the eyes of the rest of the country, it would be good to at least maintain some power in northeast hoops.
2. I think Nova wins but not impossible for Mich to hang & pull off the upset if Nova happens to have an off-shooting night.
3. Don't care all that much, except for the reasons listed above.

 

[Scottzer]

Nova, Nova, slightly. I tend to route for our old big east adversaries.

 

[August_West]

Us and Duke are the only teams to win multiple titles this decade.

id like to keep it that way.

Go Maize and Blue.

Living in the Philly metro area, I don’t know if I can take the media freak out over another Nova win... although it might be lessened because the Igglez finally won a Super Bowl.

The last time Nova won, the kid who hit the winning shot - his dad worked for my company - and he came and spoke to Take Your Child To Work Day. He was actually really great. My daughter loved it even though she tried to pretend to hate it to me because she knows I hate Nova and her dad went to St. Joe’s so HE REALLY hates Nova.

 

[The Funster]

I like Beilein. I hope he wins.

 

[the Q]

I picked UM over Nova for my bracket.

I think Nova should win as they're the better team.

I hope michigan shoots like they did against Texas A&M so I can still get to bed at a reasonable hour (I'm usually asleep by 10pm during the work week).

 

[boog204]

1. Hope Mich wins but only b/c I cannot stomach the "new" Big East. Love Nova.
2. Nova is the superior team.
3. Yes, it's a win-win. Two of the best coaches in CBB who both do it the right way. No one and dones, not purely iso/hero ball. They both run awesome stuff, rely on vets supplemented with 4 star players who get better. I hope every prospective recruit watches and sees why these teams make deep runs. Learn to shoot the ball, make an extra pass, and trust in good coaching.

Michigan.

By the way, I don't think I've ever heard it referred to as "UMichigan"

Interesting.

 

[the Q]

Michigan.

By the way, I don't I've ever heard to it referred to it as "UMichigan"

Interesting.

Not sure if that's better or worse than "the Conn"....

 

[Guapo]

Not sure if that's better or worse than "the Conn"....

Also bad.

 

[Guapo]

Also bad.

But not as bad as the WaPo referring to us as "U. Conn."

 

[AZHuskiePop]

I hate the Big East but it’s hard not to have respect for Wright and especially their coach .
He could have beat us by any score he wanted to but I suspect he didn’t want to put a knife into a struggling program and coach. Especially one with a BE background.
Nova is the better team
If Houston makes their FTS Mich doesn’t get past the first round.

 

[HuskyHawk]

I win the office pool for the second year in a row if Nova wins. So I'll root, lightly, for Nova. Don't really care though.

 

[UConnSwag11]

bump

 

[BugsyCT]

Nice start by Michigan.

 

[Jaker]

Michigan can probably go to the rim at will in this game.

 

[Scoe]

I dont really care who wins that much sort of pulling for Nova being a non p5 team but if UM wins I'm fine with that too.

 

[Huskybass]

Heart says Michigan, head says Nova. Michigan would be a good W.

 

[Scoe]

The best team in the tourney against the team of destiny.
