My prediction of Louisville, you know the one where theyre ranked too high? Did I tell ya? No but seriously Western Kentucky is game and if I'm not mistaken they made it to the sweet 16 a year ago. The Zags dominated Tennessee and it should be a hell of a rematch in rocky top. Peace Aaron-

I won't be surprised if Ford has that team in the NCAA's come March. They are underrated. Well, Happy Turkey Day for what it's worth and I hope you guys are enjoying the Old Spice Classic. I was hoping to play MSU but Maryland looks to be a formidable opponent. Peace and GO ZAGS..... Wow, OK State was pretty feisty but our depth finally showed in the second half.

Especially after seeing them struggle at home against Presby. But we'll see how they fair against the Salukis. If I'm UCLA then I'd be happy playing Michigan instead of SIU. Aaron, who do you like in the Old Spice Classic? It's the best rated pre-season tourny. I'm thinking Gonzaga and Tenessee in the finals. Could be MSU-Georgetown as well. Should be fun to watch. I like UCLA spanking Duke in the CVC finals. Peace I was a little surprised at Duke’s love as well. Especially after seeing them struggle at home against Presby.

Do you rank based on where you figure a team to finish? or start? Because I'd bet my house that UConn doesn't get past the Sweet 16. Texas at #7???? I guess I missed that the first time through. Wow, very generous. Pitt should be higher, and you won't convince any of us that Duke should be that high, no matter how much blue cool-aid you drink. thanks for the forum though! see you in march.

No one's locking me up for over ranking Notre Dame. Trust me, I saw them twice in person last year, they are a legit top 10 team. Don't let Luke Harangody's doughy phyisque fool you- the kid can play. I saw him drop 34 on UConn and Hasheem Thabeet. Kyle McAlarney- when he's hot- is as good a shooter as anyone in college basketball. They get solid play from Tory Jackson at point guard. To me they aren't a Final Four darkhorse, they are a National Championship darkhorse. As for Duke I stand by the pick. They have everything you need to win in college basketball- senior leadership at guard, good outside shooting and serviceable post play. They aren't as good as North Carolina, UConn or Louisville, but other than that can compete with anyone. I need to see more of Purdue before I put them or Michigan State in the Top 10. I'm just not sold on anyone from that conference being that good. Remember no team from the Big 10 made it past the Sweet 16 a year ago. I saw Gonzaga in person as well, they are a very talented team. Because Jeremy Pargo plays in the Pacific Northwest he doesn't get the publicity he would if he was in the Big East, but he's right there with any guard in college basketball. The Zags are a legitimate team. Thanks, Aaron Gentlemen-

So I guess that will show us something. I think the big question is can anyone beat N.C Duke will be playing Purdue early in the season. So I guess that will show us something.

That's easy, here you go: Pittsburgh: very talented, and probably the toughest team in the land Gonzaga: Best point guard in the land Purdue: As talented, great freshmen point guard, and deeper than Duke Of course, I am sure breathing all that polluted air from nearby Bristol, and the hot air from Dickie V, you're pre-disposed to pump up anything in blue from North Carolina...... just playing with ya Aaron: who deserves to be ranked ahead of Duke?
