I'd rather play UNC to be honest. Auburn is one of those wildcard teams that can get hot and then you're done.

I have us playing Auburn in the elite 8. Auburn on the right day is no joke. UNCs A game is scary too but I got a gut feeling. If Duke and UNC both lose this week I'll be as happy as I've been in a long time.

Auburn is faster than UNCheat at every position. They have the greenlight to shoot the 3 whenever. If Au makes a decent number where UNCheats can't rebound, and fastbreak, Au wins. Mates will be sucking wind through his *** by the end of the game.

After the Uncaa let 'em walk for 20 years of cheating I'm praying for the basketball gods to let our cheaters beat the *** off every ACC team. If that happens, the Uncaa would maybe try to start cleaning their mess up.

The schaudenfreude(spelling. Damn germans) is delicious.

They won't... (refs allow it I mean)

The media has too much invested in Duke and UNCheat in the final game.
I think it is set for one of 2 story lines: Duke avenges losses to UNC or Bitter Rivals face off for the 'Ship

So in other words an UNC win.

Unfortunately, after watching the duke game last night, I don't feel like there's much any team can do to beat duke or north carolina. The NCAA has decided it wants that match up and the officials will do whatever they have to, to make sure it happens. What the officials did to VCU last night was awful.

Maybe,but UNC is probably playing better ball right now than anyone in the tournament + the refs will help them until they meet Duke.

Auburn will only win if they are still shooting lights out. Other than that, the cheaters blow them out eventually.

I keep hearing this, but have no clue where this line of thinking comes from. Is the fact they beat a zionless duke? The only team worth anything they've beaten over the last 12 is fla st.

If it ends up being UNC vs Duke in the championship game I might have to give up on college basketball completely. So tired of the preferential treatment those teams always get. My hope is if that game happens, every fan of other teams turns their TV off that night. If we can't win it I really hope both those teams get eliminated before the Final Four as well and someone different wins the title.

Auburn can beat anyone in the tournament and could lose to anyone as well. They are kind of scary that way.

Auburn relies heavily on the three. They have made them in spades since the SEC tournament. The question is... when will they have an off shooting game, or will they? If they are on then they can beat UNC, but they can just as easily be off and get drummed by 30.

Not 30, but possibly 13

We've won 10 straight. We've beaten Tennessee twice in that span, drubbed Kansas, etc. This isn't a 2-3 game "spurt" that we are on. Obviously if we go 2-18 from 3pt land..yeah..we'll probably lose. But we've AVERAGED 11 made 3s all year in conference play and, more importantly, we are playing at an elite level in forcing turnovers and pressure D. That is the biggest key to this current 10 game win streak for us in my eyes.

Auburn has a decent chance but they play into UNCheats hands from a style of play standpoint which is a bit on the perilous side.

They need to at least hit near their double digit average from three and if UNCheats is on a hot day themselves then it gets going the other way quickly.

I slightly favor Carolina due to fearing Auburn will let Maye kill them on the glass and even more that they will fail to guard Johnson and eventually wilt because of it.

UNC will kill Auburn on the boards if the Tigers aren't hitting their threes.

Naz Little has become a difference maker.

Auburn will need at least 15 threes to win this. But hoping for it. Cats match up so much better against them than the Heels even if PJ is 100%.

White is a much better player now and Little is now playing a lot and well. The Heels are the favorite to win it all imo.
