Billy I got them checking out against Duke. I would love to see what you described as I dislike the Blue Devils as much as you do.
I am very concerned about California though. They are a very quick team that shoots from outside alot, this is exactly the kinda team Louisville has struggled with all year. I did hear this morning though that one of their starters has been dismissed indefinetly from the team for some off the court stuff. He was only a 5 or6 point a game starter, but a starter none the less.
Alot of the experts say Louisville matches up real well with Duke, I can't see it. But hey ya never know, they seem to get up for the name on the front of the jersey so anything can happen.
My final four are Kansas, Kansas St, West Virginia, Huggins is due, and Villanova.
With Kansas winning it.
I think Coach K won't under estimate U of L, but his team will....ACC was weaker than it has been in a real long time.

Good points and may very well be factors, if Louisville can make it to that game. I am very concerned about this opener.
i have the cards going to the final four also. they are a very good team when they have everything clicking. i also have a strong dislike for duke and will be pulling for any team that they face.
I'm with Mark got losing against Duke.
2nd round loss to Duke. Just toss each round into a hat and pull one out to see how far Louisville goes. Too hard to tell which team will show up.
I think I have them beating Duke on a couple of my brackets.

Goodnight isn't that a true statement. The Good the Bad and The Ugly, wait a minute that's three teams, lol.
I have them back toe the elite 8, but could easily see them falling to Cal in the opener. My reasoning for picking them as far as I did are because of coach Pitino. He usually gets past the first round. Also, I picked them over Duke, because that is the kind of game they win, big name under the bright lights. That had them moving to the sweet 16 and I picked them to win that game because Pitino is undefeated in sweet 16 games at every school he has been.
We will see which team shows up on Friday.

Sorry Tim but I think you are wrong on that one buddy, if I'm wrong I apologise. He lost in the Sweet Sixteen three years ago to Texas A&M when Edgar was a Freshmen and none other than Billy Clyde himself was coaching when he had AC Law at point guard.

Nope, that was the second round. We played our first two games of the tourney in Rupp and lost in the second game to Billy Clyde and Mr. Law.
