The Final Four games tip-off tomorrow night around 6, as the Spartans of Michigan State will take on the Connecticut Huskies. This is a dream come true for Travis Walton of the Spartans, as this is his last year with Tom Izzo. "Sparty" will certainly have the crowd on their side at Ford Field, but they will take on a tough uconn team. I expect this game to be a dogfight 'till the end, with some great matchups between guards Kalin Lucas and A.J Price, and Hasheem Thabeet and Goron Suton! Suton can shoot the ball, which can bring the 7'3'' Thabeet out from the paint, forcing him to guard Suton...In the second matchup of the night, we have the Villanova Wildcats taking on the North Carolina Tar Heels. Roy Williams and his gang certainly seem to have the edge in this one, but 'nova is playing their best basketball! However, I think Carolina is just more athletic and more talented overall, and will overwhelm the Wildcats...they're just so quick and effective in transition! With Ty Lawson at point, I wouldn't be suprised if North Carolina takes the title!
For the Pennsylvania sports fans, how about them Nittany Lions last night!?!?! I know it was the NIT (Not Invited Tournament), but this is a feel-good story for psu basketball fans, as Ed Dechillis is trying to get this program back on track...In other news, Cutler is traded to the bears for Kyle Orton and two first-round draft picks, John Callipari leaves Memphis to become the new coach of Kentucky basketball, and the New York "Football" Giants release Plaxico Burress today...that's all for now!
