    This is quite possibly the most positive thing you've said in a while, but I don't think it will be that easy. LSU will struggle with this team at times, that is a GIVEN. LSU has more talent and should prevail, however these teams are scary as the coaching staff will try to come up with a scheme (which isn't too hard... press, press, press and hope you get hot from the perimeter) to have an advantage. Tradionally no matter how well these "darling" teams play the talented higher seed usually runs away at the end. LSU needs to be on its toes and expect a physical, well-coached team because that's what they'll get. I predict a HUGE game from Big Baby 30 pts isn't out of reach for him against this team. I just hope we can knock down at least 40% from the perimeter.

    LSU runs away with it in the second to close out a 91-79 victory.

    Sure, and he probably will to give others a breather, but I think GT might work well against Iona.

    Scores from last year's # 13 versus # 4 match-ups:

    Vermont (13) 60, Syracuse (4) 57
    Florida (4) 67, Ohio (13) 62
    Louisville (4) 68, La-Laf (13) 62
    Boston College (4) 85, Penn (13) 65

    There are few "gimmes", unless you're a # 1.

    ... may you be blessed with a BC-type game!!

    Wow who woke up captain obvious today?
    "You better be on your game".....Naw we can just take it easy.

    "It is going to be imp. to have our guards play well"....This is like saying a football game will be won with defense and special team, its what wins games in the tourney.

    "Brady needs a good defense stragedy on the 3 pointer"....Really? is that what you do against a 3 point team. I was thinking a tight 2-1-2 D but I guess I was wrong.

    Seriously man everything you mentioned were OBVIOUS. No need for this post like there is no need for me posting this.
