Thought it was his ankle? Either way...that gives me pause for concern.

Achilles and knee is what I heard.

Carolina is looking awesome at the right
time of year, unlike last season.

Lofton will do his best in this game.
He wants this one. Really hard to tell
as Louisville has played some bad teams,
(I consider Oklahoma bad) and Tennessee
has not played well but pulled out wins.

Louisville lost two straight against good teams
coming into the tourney.

Talent wise I think Tennessee and Louisville are
about even, Tennessee a bit better.
Coaching... I give that to Louisville.

Yeah they're about equal.

Little early with the call.

But Louisville is showing
much better control. They
are getting back side rebounds
just positioning much better.
Pitino is very good.

But Tennesse has looked crappy
in the first half of many games.
They come on at the end.
I really
hate Tennessee's helter skelter play though.
Louisville is much more pleasant to
watch.

Both coaches got their team playing out of their mind. I actually am looking forward to playing Louisville next year as one of my future plays. Once they get rid of Padgett's slow ass, they can actually play some basketball.

Yeah just ignore the fact that Louisville has turned the ball over eleventy billion times and still has the league. It's ridiculous to say these teams are about equal on talent. Louisville is miles ahead in that category. Without Lofton Tennessee is arguably a NIT team.

Looks like some of my football money is going to UCLA. All this talk of Lee being a 1st round draft pick. Of what? The WNBA?

It was kinda aggressive :)

What is your take on the Memphis line being so low?

How the hell are the turnovers occuring?
Tennesse gets after the ball as well as
any team in the Nation. They just cant hold
on to it. Tennessee is incredibly athletic with
very quick hands. Their wild play will eventually
do them in. If not this game, then the next.

Tenn. is shooting under 40% and still in the game?


And Lofton is needed for one reason right now.
He actually can throw good passes and plays
under control.
