(if they can).

Let's hope so!!

I don't see it happening. With that said, it is going to be relatively close. Michigan St. is playing great basketball right now. I just don't see them overcoming the Tar Heels inside. Tyler is going to have to step up after a mediocre tournament thus far. (for him)

Congrats to Carolina on the title.

what the hell is this?

This UNC team is so loaded. I didn't think anyone could beat them.

A lot of people thought that coming into the season.

They lost more games than I thought during the season, I thought they'd lose once maybe twice tops. They've really turned it up in the tournament though.

Yea the defense they are playing is what is surprising. The thought of unc winning makes me throw up in my mouth (I'm a Duke fan) but tonight it looks inevitable.

I'm a U of A fan so I feel your pain. Been a frustrating couple of years for us. Stoked about getting Sean Miller though, I was really worried we were going to sign Tim Floyd and I'm not a fan of his at all.

UNC was just too loaded. They played out of their minds in the first half, and the game was over from there.

This team could have 7 NBA players: Lawson, Ellington, Green, Hansborough, Davis, Thompson, Zeller

That was a Great hire, good luck to you guys, you will enjoy him.

Congrats to unc and fans! <Swallows Pride>

UNC was just too much. They controlled the tempo from the beginning and largely destroyed Michigan St. Hansbrough, Ellington, and Lawson were excellent and the pace certainly favored the Tar Heels. Michigan St. couldn't drive without facing fierce defensive pressure. They earned many of their points at the line.

Yeah, the best team in the nation by a landslide won. Congratulations UNC.

UNC probably was the best team in the country however their road to the championship was by far the easiest of any team that made it to the final 4. Nova had to beat Pitt and Duke and got lucky one the latter. Michigan had to beat Kansas, Louisville, and Connecticut. Don't underestimate the effect of being worn down. I think Connecticut would've stuck with UNC much better because they waltzed through the tournament pretty easily as well.

If UNC had to play Pitt instead of Nova and then had to play UConn it would've been an epic game.

That said, Michigan disappointed. I got behind them when they had Mateen Cleaves and got behind them again this year, what a poor display in the championship.
