I'm gonna go ahead and put my neck on the line.....

After we beat Oregon, Chuck Rhodes is going to utterly destroy Memphis en route to Rick's first Sweet 16. At least 30. We will win by at least 5 points. His performance will get him big time press and will play his way into the draft. You heard it here first.

I'm feeling it. Sort of like I was feeling the Alabama '06 game.

man.....i want some of what you are sipping.....

If he is wrong, then we will tar and feather his *** and poke him with pitch forks.

 

[RebelBruiser]

Wouldn't shock me all that much. As I said before, I think your team presents some challenges for Memphis. It'd be a stretch, but not a major stretch to pull the upset.

 

[Uncle Leo]

Warm and fuzzies = bad omen

 

[RuffandTumble]

if we're not hitting our outside shots, like most of last friday, then all memphis has to do is go to a zone defense, which prevents us from getting the ball down low to chuck. last friday, when bama was in zone, we kept trying to feed it down low and didn't take, or if we did, didn't hit any outside shots.

we have to create some more consistency from the perimeter, without the balance we are toast.

 

[Temple of the Dawg]

in your prediction if we could get Coach to predict a loss to Oregon (thus leading to a Bulldog win) and then a blowout loss to Memphis. Come on, Coach, its time to step up and predict defeat for your "favorite" team, the MSU bulldogs.

 

[Goat Holder]

badass now that we are playing in it? I mean, I love watching it every year and all, but I think my wool is coming from the fact that we are just in the mother 17er to begin with. I'm looking forward to this weekend almost as much as the first football weekend, the first 2 rounds are the best to me.......

 

[DowntownDawg]

..."Oregon's going to beat us, and if we're lucky enough to get by them, we're going to get killed by Memphis" post tomorrow.

 

[graddawg]

IF we beat Oregon AND look good doing it, I predict my wool will reach levels unseen since about June 9, 2007. I will definitely require a shearing like the one UNC gave me shortly thereafter.

I hope you don't mean like last year when we played LSU in Starkville.
Yeah that was something to look forward too.

 

[SLUdog]

to Oregon. A win over Oregon and a loss to Memphis is most likely.

 

[saddawg]

we play like we did against Bama and Gawga, we are 1 and done. I truly believe we have the talent to make a little noise. Just depends if we show up to play and knock down a few outside shots. Mempho will run us out of the gym if we don't play at our best or they play at their worst.

 

[Shmuley]

the precise moment that your wife is going to ask you for sex than predicting which team is going to show up to play Oregon.

I wouldn't put my next 3 cents on this bunch.

 

[Uncle Leo]

I'm pretty sure that's not a good thing.

Tim Brando's picks

 

[Stormrider81]

Tim doesn't seem to realize that Stansbury's average floor coaching abilities will not allow him to advance to the Sweet 16.</p>

 

[FQDawg]

I hope you're right, but as other have said, we could just as easily get beat by 10 by Oregon. If they start hitting some outside shots and we can't seem to buy a three-pointer, I think they pack it in, keep Rhodes "in the bag" and win going away.

If we do get by the Ducks, I don't think there is any chance we beat Memphis unless the Tigers absolutely just stink up the joint.

But, hey, I'd love to be proven wrong!

 

[FQDawg]

which is pretty ridiculous.

 

[saltybulldog]

For once I hope Brando is right though. I will take ND in the FF for a S16 for MSU.

 

[Agentdog]

IF the Memphis basketball team goes out Saturday night, drinks a few, and catch Darren McFadden with their baby momas.

 

[saddawg]

we will beat Memphis and then lose to Pitt? Makes sense.

 

[Frances Drebin]

...Memphis never plays zone.

But the point is still valid. We've got to be hitting our shots or it will be a long night.

 

[MSUCE99]

the first 2 rounds are the best to me.......

Me too, because that's all I have to cheer for up until this point over the last decade as an MSU fan. Once we're out, I kind of lose interest.

/not an anti-Stans rant.
