I think a win over UNC today would be bigger than the one over Illinois would have been in the 05 Final Four. To beat a number one seed in their own state on a floor where they have never lost gets as about as close to basketball heaven as a fan can get!
Beat a number one seed in their own state on a floor where they have never lost? No chance.
On the other hand, UNC doesn't have a senior leader like Padgett. Their big guy might be better, but our's might be smarter. The combined defensive pressure at the guard position for UL should not be disregarded. Earl Clark (E-5) might continue to mature. Palacios has been there before. Soas can't get any worse.
If UL can shoot well from the outside for three quarters, instead of just one, we'll have another Saturday to look forward to.
JWISP reports.
Neal, dude? Davidson? 10 points. That eliminates me, so I'm not tracking that one anymore. Too confusing.
Stan and Neal are tied with impressive sevens out of eights in the JWISP 1. I'm probably gone there too, but cant bare to look.
I'm headed down to the opening of the Obama headquartes downtown.
Go Cards.
