4 possible sweet 16 acc/big east matchups

[gales0678]

Will see Joey , i think 'ville is overhyped , like sniper pointed out they didn't have to play against the conn or pitt on the road or in the big east tourney, they caught syracuse in a 5th game in 3 nights situation in the finals so to me that game is a throwout

if they play like they did against villanova in the 1st half wake could be gone by halftime

remember this is a team that lost by over 30 to ND , not 5 not 10 not , 30 sometihng points , teams with heart don't lose like that

You do realize Wake lost by 27 to Miami right?

Did Nova lose anybody off the Sweet 16 team last year?

[gales0678]

the point of the thread joey was that we are to believe that wake is the #16 team in the country ?

if you were pitino who would you rather see in the sweet 16 of all the 4's ?


i posted some lines of the #1 vs #4 's - why don't tell me where my lines are wrong and then if they all get there we can check it out

Wake is a favorite over Kansas and a pickem against MSU in the elite 8

"zaga is a dog against cuse or OU in a regional final

Sagarin predictor which is usually not far from the lines says Gonzaga and Louisville would be a pickem on a neutral court. I'm sure that wouldn't be the case with the actual line but it is quite interesting nonetheless.

if the seeds hold...
Louisville -6 Wake
Pittsburgh -4 Xavier
Connecticut -8 Washington
UNC -7 Gonzaga

[gales0678]

Well we agree on 1 at least!

unc you are not adding in the vegas public $ 3 points - i think you are too low



Pitt- actually suprised by your choice this as i could never see vegas letting Pitt only give 4 to a Mid Major and 'vill give six to the runner up in the acc

but at least you give an opinion on here thx

The pure predictor comes up with pretty interesting lines:

North Carolina (-2.5) Gonzaga (I guess -6)
Louisville (-3.5) Wake Forest (I guess -4)
Connecticut (-3.5) Washington (I guess -5)
Pittsburgh (-6) Xavier (I guess -7)

look at the $$$ on wake to win the region , i will say that 'zaga is the 2nd best 4 seed

So it's a good thing that Wake is a young, immature team?

I don't really care about the Sweet 16 lines right now, I just don't think Wake is as good as you're making them sound.

More likely they had too much fun last time to stay in this time.

there are not many teams in the country that could beat duke and unc

will see they have hopefully 2 games in miami this weekend hopefully the coach will keep them in check , kids are kids and can find ways to sneek out at night as you know , maybe that 27 pt loss was a blessing!

And even fewer that could beat both and lose to Harvard.

[gales0678]

my opinion of them is that they are as good or better than any of the big 12 teams that are #3 seeds at this stage

you can't tell me that their win over caroina isn't better than anything that anyone did in the big 12 this year and their wins over carolina / duke at home looks better than louisville splitting with conn and pitt at home
