Wisconsin in final 4 for the first time ever. Florida already in. Two to go. The Cats and who else?

I'm happy for Bo Ryan. This is well deserved for him.

And that Nick Johnson for Arizona is a punk. I can't stand him.

Great game from beginning to the end.

Couldn't have been a better game than this one. Hated to see either team lose. Just great basketball.

I am happy for Bo Ryan as well. Although his teams play at 33rpm rather than 45rpm, I enjoy their methodical, mostly error free offense. The Frank Kaminsky show was something to witness. And PaulCat, I don't know why exactly but I never liked Nick Johnson either......he may be the nicest guy but something just rubs me the wrong way about him.

I like Wisconsin, and to be perfectly honest, I'd much rather have Arizona waiting for us in the final 4.

Me too. Bo Ryan teams tend to get you out of your usual pace of play, what ever that may be.

On the other hand, this Michigan team may prove to be very hard to beat today. I've seen them play numerous times this year and if they are on, they are almost unstoppable.

I like Young but IMO if he doesn't play better defense than he did the other night, we're in big trouble. He made an All American out the guy he was guarding the other night. I don't care what Sir Charles said about Luke what ever his name is and his ability to take it to the basket. WCS being out of the game hurt but IMO a lot of that was on Young and his inability or lack of effort to defend. I'm sure many sharper basketball minds than mine will disagree with that assessment.

Handycat, Luke Hancock is his name and you are right, Young made him look like an all American as he does most people he pretends to guard. I must admit, Young is my least favorite Cat but he has been playing more in tune with the rest of the team lately and we do need him and his athleticism to be successful as a team. Maybe he will be on his A game today offensively and that will offset his defensive lapses.

I don't mind playing Wisconsin and Bo Ryan myself, we are a better team than they are and will beat them next Saturday. All we have to do to make that happen is to beat Michigan today and hopefully that will be a reality by about 7:15 PM today.

Bo Ryan is one heck of a coach. He always has teams that play together and make very few mental errors.
