FACT.

It won't be defending National Champs, Syracuse. The Orangemen (I've YET to determine just what that is...) were handed one hell of a beating at home by Pitt and that just sealed it in my book. Its quite to accomplishment to beat Syracuse at home, but to do it by that much....whoa. Step back, guys, and let the real boys show you how its done.

It'll either be Pitt or UConn or both, just depending on how the seedings go. UConn is just a dominant force all around with a fundamentally sound squad. Pitt came together like no one thought they would and have one of the best teams in D1. They are unselfish and live and die with defense, reiterating the point of 'the best offense is a good defense.' Their bench is the deepest its been in years with a strong Freshman class centered around (no pun intended) starting center Chris Taft. I'd love to see it go Big East - Big East in the final...MY DREAM GAME...lol

Fact. I believe Pitt will make it to the final four this year. That team is awesome. I think Connecticut can make it too. Maybe 2 Big East teams in the final four this year!!

Fact, UConn will make it. Pitt doesn't have a prayer, they're lucky they were playing D-2 schools earlier this year....

Pitt definitely will be in the Final Four! Lot's of chemistry and hunger on this special team!

Since everyone is saying Fact I'm going to be the minority and say Fiction. I just don't see Pitt being a Final Four caliber team. Yes they are very good but I don't think they are at that level yet. UConn on the other hand is a very talented team but they have shown they are very beatable at times this year.

Fact.... one of the two will make it, and if pitt keeps up what they are doing, they will get a 1 seed, and maybe Uconn will not ...

im goin fiction also, I like Pitt but they will disappoint this year in the tourney due 2 lack of Free throw shooting as is the case with UCONN. Try and tell me anything u want but there is no way u can convince me that this is not an important quality to have. I remember about 2-3 years ago Duke was against Indiana, on paper was much better than Indiana but it came down to the end of the game and Jason williams needed 2 make a free throw and he didnt, cost them the game. U heard it hear...
