Jeff: Did Chris "Mad Dog" Russo pick the Johnnies? If so, it's the kiss of death.....

I used to love listening to the FAN when I lived in Long Island... Believe it or not, we've got a great afternoon drive time team out here in Chicago as well... Heavy Fuel Crew (Dan McNeil & Terry Boers) on WSCR.

Jeff,

St. Johns looked awfully good beating Indiana. Maryland was a little sloppy in their win on Saturday but they were never threatened. They just don't have the killer instinct that Duke has. WFAN is completely wrong. The game will turn on whose pressing full court defense is the best. If you can get the ball up the court without a turnover you'll get a chance to score. The Terps do not run the court after an offensive miss as much as a steal. Check out Steve Francis's rebounds statistics. BTW he is a guard. When the Terps get rebounds and run the court, it is a pass to a forward, usually Laron Profit. Talent wise, these teams are equals. These coaches now each other. It should be a good game.

I expect both teams to be playing up tempo. If Terence Morris has good game the Terps will win.

Tom

Go Terps

I've had to stop listening to the FAN for the duration of the tournament. If I hear one of those brain dead bozos go on another anti Big Ten tirade I'm going to punch out the radio.
