Any Cats @ the final 2 is much more preferable than these cheatin' buzzards.

KU winning the whole thing then getting busted by the NCAA for 5 Level 1 violations works better for me.
You're spot on. But like UNC & Bama (in football), excellent, experienced cheaters conceal cheating even better than they cheat.
Hope Nova wins only if $ Bill is (lucky enough) not to get caught.
Only Nick Saban cheats > $ Bill :(

FWIW, I know the brother of a former SEC coach and he is very well connected with the coaching profession and said KU is going down and that it's just a matter of time now. He said the holdup were links to Self, himself (pun intended), but that was not a holdup anymore. Like I said, FWIW. I won't believe it until I see it.

If Kansas were to throttle Coach K in his grand finale, maybe that would wizz off the proper people. One can always hope.

I want Nova to beat the Cheathawks, but I don't think Nova can beat Duke without Justin Moore. So I think we need the Cheathawks to win because they've got a better shot to stop Ratface and Puke.

You can't bury five Level 1 infractions.

The last thing I want to see is a short-handed Nova winning one for the Gipper, so to speak, over KU, then coming back Monday and getting destroyed by UNCheat or Dook.

If 'Nova manages to beat Kansas, they won't lose to either Duke or UNC.

But this season and their championship won’t be vacated.
No way Nova beats kansas without one of their best players (achilles)
Yeah they can. They will slow down the game. Providence almost beat Kansas that way, and Nova even without Moore is better than Providence. They have plenty of scoring without Moore. He is their best defender but Wright will find a way to slow down Martin.

In a close game, Kansas will miss free throws and Nova won’t.

Villanova was 2-0 against providence winning by 5 and 2. Not sure I would say they are better than providence sans Moore but I definitely expect them to play really well. Wright is elite and KU will have to play great to beat whatever he throws at them.

difference between KU and Nova is the number of ways in which each team can win. KU could win fast or physical. Nova would need it likely to be a defensive brick fest win at the free throw line.
