Sparty/Dook is going to be one hell of a basketball game IMO. And obviously the highlight game of the event.

Purdue/Tech will be good and IMO, so will Carolina/Illinois.

Definitely going to the MSU Duke game,
wish the State Wisky game was at RBC would be a great atmosphere. State has to earn some respect first.
Although they do have the same number of national championships as UConn, Michigan State, Louisville

btw Purdue GaTech will suck. No Favors, No Lawal and all of Purdue's players back. Slaughter. They probably inked that hoping some YellowJackets would return. No dice.

Purdue is playing Va. Tech.

I should have said Va. Tech in my post, but it's in the first post lol

Ok, whew. That should be a little better matchup. Malcolm Delaney came back thankfully.

Cassel Coliseum is a house of horrors for many a team. Should be a decent game.

It will be the best match-up, but I'm tired of playing MSU. I believe this will make for the third time we've played the Spartans in the Challenge and we've met up with them other occasions as well, in the Dance and I believe one other regular season match-up, over the past six or seven years.

Hard to be too upset, though, when the conference's two premier programs (Carolina is also on that level; don't fret UNC lovers) meet each other. I guess I was just hoping for an OSU match-up in Cameron. I'd be licking my chops, and we haven't played the Bucks since '02.

This will depend on Lucas' recovery from the torn achille's tendon and Chris Allen's transfer decision.

Maryland tied for the conference title last year but are playing the worst Big 10 team. Is Maryland supposed to be that bad this year? Ohio State playing Florida State sucks, I was hoping to play Duke, Maryland or UNC.

Maryland is probably going to be much worse next season, although they could still be a threat for the tournament. They have a good number of upperclassmen that will start/see time, but those upperclassmen have very little real experience.
