The Final Four


I want to start by giving a shout out to my boy Bohn who's down in Atlanta at the Final Four now...must be nice. It's been a few days since I've been here, but I've been really busy drinking doing homework and such. So let's just get right to the predictions.

(2) Georgetown vs. (1) Ohio State
This may be one of the most anticipated matchups in the history of the Final Four. With freshman phenom Greg Oden going head-to-head with Roy Hibbert, this could be the best showdown between two dominating seven footers. The one thing I'm afraid of is how these two are very prone to getting into foul trouble early. If there's one game where'd I'd like to see the refs let the teams play, this is it. Let these two big boys get after each other and keep them on the court as much as possible.
With that, I see Oden and Conley outplaying Green and Hibbert just enough to edge them in a close one...Ohio State 78, Georgetown 74.

(2) UCLA vs. (1) Florida
This is obviously another exciting matchup, given that it's the national championship game rematch of just one year ago. I think Florida has just too much for the Bruins and will pull away late in the second half to set up another Florida vs. Ohio State national championship game this year. They can definitely keep it closer if they don't leave this guy open like Oregon did, but Florida still gets the victory...Florida 84-UCLA 75

(Note: Bruce Pearl just said there's no way a #16 seed will EVER beat a #1 seed...even more proof that the guy is a complete moron.)

Bohn and his Dad flew down Saturday morning. Bohn's uncle lives in Atlanta and hooked them up with tickets.
