This year, they aren't as good and lose right out of the gate to Towson. They will not make the final four this year. Their ranking is too high.

Anyone want to bet that Notre Dame is not the 15 best (preseason ranking) team in the country? They looked pretty bad yesterday against
BC, who is also ranked too high. Unless they get Kent back (who might redshirt), they are going nowhere.

Final 4:
Maryland
Northwestern
SB
Syracuse

Book it.


I would take out cuse and put in UNC but that’s why they play the games . The UNC loss does not completely shock me as it’s early , weather, something like 6-7 players started for UNC who never started before but they do have some very talented freshmen who will take some time plus they have a few studs who should be back from injury soon .Cuse has better coaching so you never know .
