2005 NCAA Watch Them Fall!
Kentucky: The Wildcats are overrated. They are
a good team with a solid group of players, but I don't
see them getting the job done during Tourney Time. Alabama
is looking to pull the rug out from under Kentucky,
and take the top spot in the division. If this happens
it will be a sign of things to come for the Cats. What
do you think about that Meow?
Texas
Tech: The fluke win over Kansas in a double overtime
barnburner has many people praising Coach Knight's team.
If the Red Raiders make it to the Sweet Sixteen I'd
be stunned. Though Coach Knight always manages to put
together winners, more often than not he loses a handful
of games to lesser teams during the year. This doesn't
bode well for The Big Dance. A solid team attack shows
what Knight can do for his team, three guys averaging
3+ assists, 4 guys averaging 12+ points a game, and
5 guys averaging more than 3 boards a game. The recent
loss to Iowa State shows what happens more often than
not to Knight's teams.
Louisville:
A home of another really good coach (Patino), and a
real solid team assault, (5 guys averaging 10+ points)
the Cardinals might be ready to stumble down the stretch.
They've played plenty of close games against mediocre
talent this year, but it might be too much to place
them here. Like the Wildcats, they are a very good team.
But some good teams have to stumble; Louisville looks
to me like one of those teams. Francisco Garcia is really
good.
