Down To Two



The Final Four have been reduced to two.

On Saturday night in San Antonio, Memphis defeated UCLA by a score of 78-63, and Kansas beat North Carolina 84-66. Neither game lived up to the hype created during the week leading up to the game.

This year's Final Four was the first to have all four #1 seeds. It was supposed to be highly competitive, and riveting to watch. Only two of the teams were worth watching, and unfortunately they played in separate games.

If the same Memphis and Kansas teams that played Saturday night show up on Monday, the National Championship game could be a great one. If either team is sluggish, they could get blown right out of the Alamodome.

I believe that Memphis should win the game. I really think the UNC game was Kansas' big game, because of the Roy Williams angle. I am not sure they can bring the same effort and intensity to the next game, even if it is for all the marbles.
