Who We Want to Win (Besides Us, Of Course)

[FfldCntyFan]

This is a state that recently had back to back national championships, and they’re bragging about their conference trophies? Go right ahead

I don't think this will end well for Ricky.

I remember a little over a year ago he said "When we drive to Providence for the tournament, we'll look north and wave at Storrs".

They had no reason to wave on the ride back to Queens.

superjohn used his tax returns wisely this year

I have Nova billboards up all over Torrington.

6. Iowa
5. Purdue
4. Michigan
3. Tennessee
2. Arizona
1. UConn

 

[Mr. French]

Thank god this is moot.

I hate SJU, and we once again had a better season than them. Waaahhhh

Let's take a pulse of SJU fans and see how many are clamoring to root for us.

I think I will go with Purdue
They had two teams in their, history that could win it all in 60 years and they unfortunately ran into a UCLA Wooden l
juggernaut and then an incredible UConn team there is no such team this year.
Every year isn’t equal
Last years Florida team gets blown out by. Either UConn team and even Purdue 2024 beats them
Beating either Arizona or Michigan is a tall order the two with the most talent but they’re not bulletproof
UConn or Duke could win but they have to put two good halves to do it but it’s never too late and key injuries could. Be the reason .
I thought UConn had a chance to be a super team this year.
if the freshman turned into a superstar and
If that bench jelled into the force the 2023 bench was offensively no one could touch us.
Maybe with Stewart back it will happen but the big guy has to be close to DC2 for us to be bulletproof . That takes immense pressure off Reed .

I think those of us who stood on our square about wanting to play Duke need to beat our chests, how much sweeter does it feel to end another Duke season

You got me there. Wasn't feeling it at the 25 minute mark, but holy hell. Haven't had this level of post-game nervousnous since Hamilton vs. Washington.

Oh I thought we were cooked too and Duke is a very tough matchup given we don't really have anyone on the perimeter that can create their own offense and we're dependent on up and down shooters, but in the end it paid off with ending another Duke season.
