A Daily Dose

BASKETBALL
Travelling in Tampa this week, so won't have much time to provide updates - although I'm sure I can depend on my other buds to pick up the slack. So, time for UNC at home. I will tell you one thing - they will NOT score 100 points on us again. Will not happen. Mark it down. However, this will be a high scoring affair. Teams that like to run, push the ball, great point guards. Should be an interesting battle. UNC is coming off a nice game where they beat WF at Wake. We are coming off the win in Knoxville. We should win this one at home. My prediction is a final score in the range of 80-74. Should be tight all the way, but our momentum at home should carry us the rest of the way for the W.

AJC sees the objective as slowing down Felton. Can't argue that too much. Funny quote from Hewitt - "Not everybody loves Raymond". Get it?

Here's looking at what teams could peak during the tourney.

Ok, the polls are out.
#16 in the Coaches Poll - no change
#15 in the AP - no change
#16 RPI

Meanwhile, our favorite hoops writer (Jeremis Smith) has entered another chapter in his online jounal - again well written.
