Who would you like to beat in the NCAA tournament

[Scoe]

Don't say a team we have done it to before like Duke, UK, Florida, think of a team that has our number, a great program, a team that has beaten us in past tournaments, a coach you really despise, etc. I will list some teams.

Louisville, especially with Pitino coaching that team he is very easy to hate

UNC (they have 5 it would be sort of similar to beating Duke)

Kansas (We can officially settle the better program argument)

UCLA (payback from 95, would like to do it with Prince Ali still on the team)

Cuse (amazingly we have never faced them in the tournament, would love to be the ones to make them cry in march)

3 of my 4 you already listed. Louisville because I hate Pitino and they're always stealing our recruits. Kansas because they are overrated every year and people are always comparing us. Cuse because they are a corrupt program with one the least classy coaches ever. I'd also love to beat West Virginia. Their team is a bunch of punks who I'd love to destroy.

Louisville- they would wreck us. They've had our number these past few years and I don't want anything to do with that.
UNC- hopefully not next year; they are stacked.
Kansas- they are a better program whether or not we beat them.
UCLA- sure sounds fun.
Syracuse- NCAA games vs them in 1957 and 1979. Wouldn't mind them in the future.

I love playing Arizona. And I have this weird infatuation with the idea of playing Baylor in the NCAAs, I'm not sure why. Oh, and Providence for sure; it would be an honor for UConn to play the best program in New England.

Cuse is ineligible, you said a great program.

 

[husky99]

Zona Duke uk

Well it doesn't have to be a great program and it can be any year it doesn't have to be this upcoming year. It would still be sweet to knock them off especially if they were a higher seed.

 

[Scoe]

It could be any year it could be 10-20 years from now.

Ok I just assumed I didn't look it up lol.

dook, UNC, Kentucky, Louisville and meet george mason early and absolutely obliterate them by 40 points or more and go on and with another ncaa title, that's how my script would play out

 

[TheChamps990411]

Id like to play and beat Kansas for a national title. I really like theyre program and if i wasnt a Uconn fan id problably be a KU fan to be honest.

 

[TheChamps990411]

Kind of tough when they usually go home pretty early. We make final fours, Cuse makes 25-0 shirts.

Whichever 6 teams we play on the way to #5.

Maryland -- would be nice to show Diamond what a school with a winning tradition is all about. Love the kid, but
knocking them out early would be nice.

Gonzaga -- horribly overrated and overhyped year after year as evidenced by the few deep runs they've had. Anyway would love to continue making that point by whacking them 20pts or so. Also I've never been fan of Mark Few.

politically correct but too easy of an answer, I wouldn't be making a thread like this during the season because I believe in the bad mojo

Nah, it is exactly the right answer. Whoever they put in front of us.

 

[OkaForPrez]

Doooooooooooooooomed

 

[Danzz]

Beating Cuse in the tournament would be fun but since they are ineligible drubbing Kentucky is always nice.

 

[Uconn77Duke74]

Central CT because it likely means we are #1 seed.

 

[dennismenace]

Louisville. And I would love to do it by breaking down their press for easy baskets and then pressing them into the middle of next week. Going to take a little while to get the players but we have a very good start with recent recruits and more in the wings. I loved the earlier J. Calhoun teams that pressed when we had the depth and players to make it work. Even if they fell behind early they would relentlessly keep the pressure on and then run teams out of the building in the second half.
A great example of having faith in the system and teammates. But I trust KO who knows how to get the best out of all the talent he is able to get. I actually don't "hate" Pitino, a worthy opponent who knows how to exploit weaknesses. Just beat Louisville and beat them good!

 

[Rocktheworld]

Not a "great" a team, nor one that has necessarily "had our number" but I'd love to see us knock off Gonzaga

 

[HuskyFich]

Notre Dame. Such an easy team to hate with the princesses that play for them. Also, eliminating the possibility of seeing that god awful turtle neck for another game is a nice bonus.

But basically any former Big East team will feel nice.

 

[Stainmaster]

People still give a crap about Prince Ali? Learn something new every day I guess.
