believing this team could win the whole NCAA tourney. Warrick and Anthony are playing great and at 25-1 odds it would be a nice payday. Maybe I am crazy................

I realize Kentucky is playing well right now but earlier in the season they lost at home to Michigan State and Syracuse beat Michigan State at East Lansing.................

I'd say they are in that 3rd group of teams that have a realistic shot of winning it all:

1) UA/Kentucky
2) OU/KU/Texas
3) Syracuse/Marquette/Fla/Pitt/Wake/Duke/Md

and at 25-1 you have pretty good odds.

Anthony is unstoppable and they have some shooters and are athletic. Onlu problem I see is turnovers and ball-handling. But 25-1 for a #2/3 seed is pretty good.

memphis
you can put memphis in that third group. i am not your usual homer. this memphis team played like s!!! today and still won. conference usa is a weak conference compared to a couple of the bigs. however, memphis is the best team overall. chris massie is a beast inside. the main problem w/ memphis is that they are impatient at times and they take too many 3's. memphis should reach the sweet 16 easy. the memphis tigers are as athletic and deep as any team defensively- except kentucky. i am a harsh critic of the tigers every year and i still am. this is the best team we have had in a LONG TIME.
