max, we own Utah. Have put them out of the tourney the last 3 years by big margins. Got to respect the Utes but love our chances.

Great call max90, you're looking good to this Tar Heel (sigh...)

My current excuse is that UNC's jump shot was AWOL tonight, however if you give me a couple of hours, I'm sure I can come up with something else. ;-)

Random Thoughts:

Utah played well and the fact that they repeated their Arizona performance shows that they are not a fluke. Hearing CBS call them a "Cinderella" seemed like an insult to me.

I was glad to see UNC get it close in the second half. The margin of victory was less than the difference in 3-point shots scored. Some of the shots Jamison hit were absolutely amazing - his stats don't reflect the amazing game that he had. With the rest of UNC totally flat, Utah focused exclusively on him and Carter and he still managed to score (including a awesome one that was nullified by a foul). Did you see the one where it was knocked out of Jamison's hands and onto his shoulder while he was in the air, yet he still made it?

If I was a Kentucky fan I'd be worried. They should have never let that game go to overtime.

Looking forward to Monday night!

...Last year when Utah lost to Kentucky,Miller was injured in the opening minutes...

I was wondering where this guy had been hiding, and how I could have missed him last year!

The Utes play D at the highest level. The way they know exactly who is where, and run at shooters but not the bricklayers, reminds me of the Cleveland Cavaliers and Miami Heat in recent years.
