Watching them manhandle Ohio State at Ohio State. This was the umpteenth time I've seen them play this year. sure hope they get a #1 seed as I wouldn't want them to get a 2 seed in our bracket. They scare me as least as much as any team in the field.

Me either Handy, I am as impressed with Wisconsin and the way they play the game of basketball as I am anyone. The only time I want to play Wisconsin this season is for the National Championship in April. They should be a number one seed along with Virginia, Duke and Kentucky. One of their losses was a road loss when they had to play without Kaminsky and lost their starting point guard for the season. I know I have seen at least ten or twelve of their games this season. They did lose to Duke on their home court in the ACC/Big Ten challenge and both them and Duke have improved considerably since then. I must admit, I have not seen a lot of Villanova this season but they could slip into one of the number one slots. UVA could drop down after the loss to U of L on Saturday but there is no doubt that Ky and Duke will be two of the number one seeds, the other two, who knows at this point, could be from two of 4 or 5 different teams.

WISCONSIN IS A OLD SCHOOL TYPE OF TEAM, BACK DOOR YOU TO DEATH, AND VERY WELL COACHED. VIRGINA WILL BE A ONE SEED, AND MAYBE ARIZONA. DUKE AND KY.

It wasn't even a game. Wisconsin does not beat themselves and like both Ray and GB said, they are very well coached.

I hope we see Wisconsin in the finals. They will have a tough time with our bigs.

Wisconsin hasn't seen a defense like ours.

I really like our chances after watching them play today. They looked good but they are not great and can see where we would cause them some match-up problems.

That's like what I saw watching Virginia yesterday. They may be a strong defensive team but I'm really not that impressed with them offensively!

Duke looked impressive sat against UNC. I hope we play them for the championship, and they have a camera on bobby knight. I would love to see his ugly face as we win #9 and go undefeated.

Duke are a lot like Florida, take the three point shot away and they are very beatable. Most teams that play Duke concentrate on stopping Okafor and leave all those three point shooters unguarded thus letting them make a lot of three's. We could play Okafor straight up with our bigs. Same for Wisconsin. Kaminsky and Decker can both pull bigs away from the basket because they both are good three point shooters but again I think Towns and Willie would match up real good with those two. Duke and Wisconsin are two teams I want to beat but only at the final four. I want to beat every team we play but must admit, a win over Duke would mean a lot more to me than a win over anyone else playing college basketball today.

I think we could easily beat Duke. We can shut down Okafor and put our guards on their three point shooters. We have outstanding defense!

Ray, I agree we have the ability to guard Okafor one on one and have the ability to guard him with one of 3 bigs to give him different looks. This gives us the advantage to stay out on their shooters and not have to collapse our defense.
