Surprise Team of this year???

[SELANNE57]

I am wondering some of your surprise teams.

Mine: My UB Bulls

- Since Kent State and Miami (Ohio), the MAC power houses, and Western Michigan are in rebuilding, I can see the UB Bulls make the NCAA Tournament for the first time ever. With Senior Guard Turner Battle at the helm, and Sophmore Center/Power Forward Yassin Idbihi there, I can see them win the MAC Championship.

Duke....not for doin good but for doin bad...i mean they didnt really lose alot but the lost the leader Chris Duhon...im predicting a top 20 finish for them and a top 1 for Dem Boi's down in UNC :D

[Infernal]

Memphis Tigers, they got some good players in Banks, Carney, Rice, and they gots some new freshmen that look good

Yea i can see memphis and providence to stir things up dis season

[Mariners in 2006]

That is if Memphis can get by Cincy, they had some good games last year.

providence with ryan ghomes is a good team. Watch out for lousiville thell be on the top 25 rankings a few times this year off and on.

RUTGERS!...and no I am not a Rutgers fan, I am a UConn fan.

Rutgers will be great this year with Ricky Shields, Quincy Douby, Marquis Webb and Adrian Hill back and a couple really talented freshmen coming in (Ollie Bailey and Manny Quesada). Not to mention Rutgers has the biigest home court advantage in the country at the RAC (besides maybe Duke). The Scarlet Knights play like a differnt team at home and I do not see them losing a game there this season, even against my UConn Huskies. The fans are right on top of the visting team's players and it is deafening in the building. The difference this year is that Rutgers now has the talent and athleticism to be able to compete on the road.

I look for Rutgers to be the surprise team of the year, finish 6th in the Big East ahead of BC, Nova, Seton Hall, WVU, G'Town, St. Johns and make it to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

The suprise team this year will be tennessee bcuz they came out strong and beat stanford in the first round of the maui invitational and i know unc is gonna beat them in the next round bcuz that is the best team in the country but i think tennessee will compete in the sec and hopefully make it to ncaa tournament.

Tennessee let's go

Yeah, they sure are looking good early, tonight they play UNC, if they beat them they definitely deserve to be in the Top-25. Although I think they will be close as of now defeating a 12th and 15th ranked team.

[AIRjordan23]

well i still think UNC will win tonight against IOWA but is pierre pierce injured or not?

[Darkbackward]

I hate picking teams that lose already.


I am going to go with the keydets, they have some talent this year.

[KILLA BEE10]

my surprise team is memphis.

[JaguarsFan54]

[The Great Saiyaman]

Oregon

[squidpants]

I have to say my alma mater, George Washington. I hope we can keep it up after this weekend!

[krzyzewskisucks]

I see UVA being a surprise, Arizona being a disappointment, Grambling State and Farleigh Dickinson will make the NCAA I predict
