Anyone think WSU can beat Louisville?

[DenverSooner]

I tend to think Louisville will win but it would be great to see WSU beat them.

How much does the Kevin Ware injury hurt Louisville? I don't know much about that team. It looks like he was fairly deep on their bench based on minutes played an production. I feel bad for that kid. Terrible injury and an even worse timming.

Wichita State, a team that has beaten Pitt, Gonzaga, a hot LaSalle team, and Ohio State, is certainly capable of winning the whole thing.

Go Shockers!!

 

[WTSooner]

Of course they can win.

Don't think they will, but they can.

I'm pulling for the teams in this order:

Louisville (I like Pitino, and was a HUGE UK fan growing up b/c of him.)
Michigan (really enjoy watching their guard play.)
WSU (No ties to this program at all.)
Syracuse (Never been a big fan of the team/program, or the coach.)

Yes, I will be a fan of any team playing Syracuse. I am also not a fan of their coach.

It should be a fun Final-4. Two 4-seeds, and a 9-seed. Louisville fans are probably quite confident.

Would love to see a Louisville/Michigan matchup. That game should have some decent scoring, and a lot of good guard play.

WSU/Cuse would be an ugly, Kelvin Sampson-like slug fest.

I probably should have said does anyone thik WSU will beat Louisville.

I have never liked Boeheim.

And to answer the OP, even though I have Louisville in my bracket. I think the Shockers will win.

Of course they can win.

Don't think they will, but they can.

I've always liked Pitino. I hope he wears the white suit once during final 4 weekend. He looked so young back in 87 when he coached Providence to the Final 4.

I believe!!!

 

[MercedeSooner]

No.

I'm pulling for the teams in this order:

WSU - Nine times out of ten, I pull for the underdog if OU isn't involved.
Louisville
Michigan
Syracuse - Don't like their coach.

 

[Keller Sooner]

They could but I don't think they will. I picked Louisville to cut down the nets.

The thing that hurts WSU the most is another week to sit around. They are hot, and riding momentum right now. UL has better athletes, and should have matchup advantages all over the place, so WSU needs to hit shots, and a week off could cool off those shooters.

When is OU hiring Gregg Marshall?

 

[KCRuf/Nek]

No. No. And no.

 

[chuckb]

Can? Yes.

Will? No.

I'd give them about a 20% chance.

 

[mict085]

Can they win? Absolutely.

I think Louisville will be too much in the end but WSU can win this game.

I don't think WSU can keep Smith and Silva out of paint. Russ Smith is the best player in the country. Well, I would probably say a tie with Burke. There's a reason the two best guards in the country are likely set to face each other for the title.
