I think UNC will win, and I am excited to see Psycho T in his last college game, but I can't help but root for the underdog MSU.

I hate UNC...  but I like Hansborough.  It's an odd feeling.  I'll be okay with either team winning.

You gotta go with UNC here.  MSU would be a great story for Detroit, but it comes down to the basketball court and the kids playing.


The economic state of Detroit has become the headline since MSU is there.  This has robbed Hansbrough the top billing in what will be the last game of one of the greatest college basketball careers ever.  Here's hoping he makes himself the story by the end of the night by having a huge game.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."

Agreed on both points.  NYT had a decent article in today's paper addressing the top point (as I am sure did other papers).

Think UNC will win but will be rooting for Michigan State.

Wow, this is already looking like a blowout, which sucks, because I just want to be able to enjoy an excellent game from both teams.  Really watch them gut it out against each other.  Oh well.

Did Clark Kellogg just call Jim Nantz "Tim" or am I just hearing things.

At the risk of jinxing this, UNC looks like a pro team out there.  Hope they can keep this up.
