dclear2k Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 Temple is a very good match up for you guys and I'm sure you will come out on top. But it looks to be an emotional game on the Temple side. I'll pick u over them though. What do you think of K E N T's chances against Pitt? Quote
Zip Watcher Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 I think the flushes got a good 1st round draw. Pitt's a solid club, but some good defense & depth should give Can't a chance in this game if they shoot a reasonable percentage. They need productive games from Youngblood and Warzinski. Quote
FearTheRoo Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 If Krouser (sp?) is "on", you will have your hands VERY full. If he is off and they can get into foul trouble or tournover trouble early, you will handle them. I have watched a fair amount of Pitt BBall this year as my neighbor is an alumn and die hard fan. We are both disappointed that Akron didn't win the MAC because it could have been an Akron/Pitt match up!Anyway, if this was a best of 3 or best of five series, I would give Pitt the advantage, but since it is only one game, it is a toss IMO. Can't is actually dangerous because they will be the underdog. It's the David vs. Goliath analogy (sp?) in a way which is dangerous for Pitt as they have more to lose. Good luck!! Quote
zipsbandman Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 Can't has little, if not, nothing to lose but everything to gain. Pittsburgh has a ton to lose. The pressure is on them. An upset is not out of the question here. Quote
MRasor0200 Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 I have K ent winning in my bracket. Quote
UAZipster0305 Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 I'm a graduate of UA and a current PhD student at Pitt. Although I love Pitt as a school, I'll be rooting for Can't because of how their winning could help the MAC and in turn, UA. I think Can't will win as Pitt is notorious for being upset in the NCAA Tournament. Can't's depth and great defense will give Pitt problems. Quote
dialsfan11 Posted March 14, 2006 Report Posted March 14, 2006 Gray is far better than Can't's good defense. You have to look at some of the teams they've played. The Big East was soo dominant this year and they played very well in that league. On the contrary this team is the type that can beat anyone or be beat by anyone. They have a tendency to lose a lot of games they should win. I'll take Pitt by 8, but an upset isn't completely out of the question. Even though I want them to win to help the MAC... Quote
FearTheRoo Posted March 14, 2006 Report Posted March 14, 2006 Im am with you. When the latest RPI comes out, you will probably find Pitt at about 10 or 11. They played pretty well in the toughest conference in the country. As much as I want to see the MAC do well, it think Pitt by 8 as well.....with an upset being possible! Quote
scottditzen Posted March 14, 2006 Report Posted March 14, 2006 No idea who will win, but ya gotta root for the MAC. Quote
