What game(s) are you looking forward to tonight?

[Ronco]

Mine are Wisconsin v Butler and Florida v Fredette (BYU).

Wisconsin and Butler are both pretty efficient on offense. For most teams Wisconsin's pace (or lack there of) is frustrating. Butler should not be affected by the pace. Wisconsin leads NCAA (or is that last) in fewest possession/game. Note: For those that make fun of the style and exaggerate the final being 30-27, both teams average more PPG than does Iowa. Butler avg. about 73/game and Wisconsin about 69/game. I think that Butler might have a slight edge in the back court and Wisconsin in the front court. Matt Howard is improved from last year and does a better job staying out of foul trouble. I'm rooting for Butler, but I think Wisconsin gets em 65-60.

I'm curious what FL approach will be with BYU. Do they do everything they can to take Fredette out of the game and let the other 4 beat em or do they take the other 4 out of the game and let Fredette get his? Fredette needs to have a good all round game and his teammates need to be involved for BYU to win. I think FL wins this one pulling away 78-64.

I am looking forward to the Jordan Taylor vs Shelvin Mack matchup....these two are almost mirrror images,both tougher than nails. I think Wisky finds a way to squeak out the win. Not a fan of wisky,but I am a Big Ten homer,so go badgers.

And yes, I admit I have not seen much of Freddette,but that will be interesting...can he do a Danny Manning and carry BYU to the promise land? I have florida winning. I like that little pg of theirs who shoots quick and is a pistol.

Both Mack and Taylor are SOLID. Nobody will push them around. I think Norand may proove the difference maker for Butler. I think he can harass Wisconsin defensively, but can he score?

Gus Johnson! Ha Haa!

Looking forward to Taylor-Mack matchup as well. I will also be interested in who Florida has guard Freddette (can Parsons?).

It's the sweet 16 and Iowa is not in it so no game has more importance than any of the others. I'll be watching all of them.

Tonights games are much more intriguing than tommorrow nights.

Another good game by Kemba. Who had UConn-Zona in the Elite 8?

Arizona is impressive. They're playing with real intensity. Tonight they look like they could win in all.

Normally I would thouroughly enjoy watching Duke get pounded...however, it is hard for me to root for Arizona in anything after their fanbase showed what classless a$#clowns they are when Iowa was there for the FB game this year. I'm not sure I have ever heard as many stories of one fanbase being widespread jerks to the visiting fans as came out from that game. And that includes numerous trips to Wisconsin.
