Wake Forest, Connecticut (Same style but superior talent and athleticism) and Duke (They would run Pitt out of the building).

UConn sure, Wake no way on talent and Pitt would pound Duke inside. Only way Duke wins is if threes are falling. Pitt would be a nightmare for coach K that's a terrible example.

Really? When I see Pitt I see a team that's good as long as the entire game is played in halfcourt sets but will fall apart if the other team can get into the open court. They don't have the athletes keep up and they're guards can't handle Duke's pressure. Wake Forest is second only to UNC talent wise, they're stacked. They can score in a lot of ways and force Pitt out of their comfort zone on defense.

I'm not saying Wake can't beat Pitt, but Wake is not even close to UNC in the talent department.

Wake has at most three pros; and really they are project pros in the sens that they'll all leave before there game fully matures.

The Demon Deacons are very young and I don't see them getting past the round of 16. Could be wrong, but I'm pretty confident in this one.

Pitt is a tough out come March. They remind of fairly recent National Champions like UConn in 99 Mich St. in 00 and Maryland in 2002. A Nice senior core and a whole bunch of young talent around it. Young and Fields are flawless under pressure and can control games. Blair is an absolute animal inside and Biggs is also very strong and physical. You can't run much on Pitt because, A) you can't rebound on them B) They are too disciplined to get into a running game.

If they get beat it will be because a team as good or better played a very good game against them.

I think you underestimate the Panthers.

Same here. But that's more than Pitt.

Well, we'll come March, this is all speculation. But I must admit that they're vulnerable because of their youth.

If you look at the past few National champs they've all been extremely athletic, pushed the tempo and overwhelmed teams with their speed and length. I don't see Pitt as that type of team. Doesn't mean they can't compete, but I just don't think they will.

Yep, a solid team.

They haven't played a really good pressure D yet. We'll see how they handle it.

We'll see come March.

Poor UCONN, they were my pick to win it all, but with Dyson out I'll take UNC.
