Who ya got? KU looks super good right now. I'm not a Bill Self fan at all so I will be rooting for the Heels.

KU to run away with it
Tarheels get up for 2 games a year. They've spent their gimmes already

Depends on if Bocot plays.
If his ankle is a non-issue then NC keeps it close and wins in '4th' quarter.
Kansas doesn't have the drive but they are studs.
Bocot is a dog and will work his tail off to get that championship.
Will ruin finals if he can't go close to 100%
That said, I picked Kansas early and have already won the smallish bracket I'm in having picked the final 4 and had Duke beating NC in semis. Mind has changed since then.

Normally I would agree. But they have been red hot for a month. The wins over Baylor and UCLA were very impressive even before the Semi against Duke. Kansas has been equally impressive . I'd probably take KU but not sure i would give the -4.
I think Kansas, and I kinda think they'll keep UNC at arm's length most of the game.
Like I don't think it'll be a blowout, but I also don't think UNC will seem like much of a threat to actually win.

With the defenses and the collection of 4's/5's….
I think it'll be whoever is hitting the 3-ball better.

Gotta wonder if UNC celebrated their win over Duke a little too much and won't have the same mental edge as KU does. That has to swing things in KU's favor, even if just a little.
KU wins easily IMO. They're playing at an elite level right now.

I guarantee you, if KU beats UNC, it will not be because of this.Quote:

As Hubert Davis said, "Playing for the National Championship....If your not motivated for that, you shouldn't be playing the game."
And UNC isn't?Quote:

Here's hoping UNC makes a go of it.
Don't need a repeat of last year.

Being in TexAgs jail changes a man……..no, not really
That was a cool national anthem. Made it local without changing up the actual melody of the singing much. Not usually one for variations of the anthem but that was cool.
I predict something like 80-67 KU

My heart is with UNC but my brain says KU pulls it out, especially with Bacot not being 100%

Yeah, great anthem.
And KU will win 74-67.

Teen Wolf nails it!

Rooting for NC if for no other reason than I see 3 KU players wearing pants/leggings on basketball court. LOL!
This game will not be Gonzaga-Baylor.
Gonzaga crumbled and never recovered when Baylor hit them with that haymaker.
North Carolina did not fold when Kansas punched them in the mouth. I had Kansas winning this game....but something in my gut tells that North Carolina will pull this off.

I don't care who wins.

So the 30th best team in college basketball this year is looking good to win the national championship.
Love the tournament, but it's a pretty random way to pick a champ.

Weird first half
They've been the hottest team in the nation for 4 weeks. Their guard play along with Bacot has been unstoppable. They would have blown out #1 seed BU if Manek doesn't get tossed.
What a collapse by Kansas. Missing layups, silly turnovers, fouling 3-point shooters. Just a complete meltdown.

Never a fan of it unless it's a mid major who didn't have the chances to get top 25 wins in conference play.
I definitely thought UNC had a good shot to win but did not see them just running Kansas off the court like this.
You can tell Kansas is mentally out of it now and UNC is in their heads. They got punched hard in the mouth and look shell shocked.

great half by UNC
The Buick commercials have convinced me that I've been missing out on female sports.
UNC started down 7-0 and have outscored Kansas 40-18 since.
Once I saw North Carolina beat Duke on their home court and then Baylor I knew they could beat any team in the country.
This team has vibes of UCONN 2011. Where they are just the best team at the end of the season.

Kansas players are all in mental meltdown. To the point where I wonder(jokingly) if some are throwing it. That's so bad
Okay so let's assume UNC wins this (looks likely now) and Davis wins a natty as a rookie college coach.
How exclusive is the club of guys who won a D1 national championship their first year coaching (ever in their career)?
Has anyone else ever started their college head coaching career off like that?
