does anyone think fazekis is better than caleb green from oral roberts? green impressed me this year and handed it to the griz, but they still lost.
If nv wins i will definately be pulling for them b/c im still happy over their win over faga in 2004

Dude, Green is ranked #104 in forwards and Fazekas is #4. He is a mid 1st rnd pick in the NBA. Oral Roberts RPI is 131 and Nevada is 18.

any ???'s
 
I'm looking forward to our game, not past it. For one simple reason (and a few more complicated): like all NCAA tournament teams, Montana is not travelling all the way to Salt Lake City to be a practice squad for Nevada's 2nd round game, they're going there to win!

Here's hoping for a good game, free of injuries and bad officiating. May the best team win.

:beer2:
 
I really don't think anybody is going to overlook anybody in this game. Coaches and players will not let that happen. The game will be won or lost on the court not by preconceptions of the other team. I think this is the best chance UM has had to win a tourney game (No disrespect to Nevada) but it is still a long shot. Here's to long shots - Go Griz!!
 
IMO, anyone seeded #13 or higher can beat anyone else on any given night (unless they're facing the best #1s, perhaps). I'm looking forward to a great game, and am not assuming anything.

I'm really jazzed to be facing off against old foes. I watched your coach play when the Grizzles* came to Reno many moons ago...those were some fun times.

*I'll spell your mascot right, if you guys agree to spell "Wolf Pack" right...deal?

Huge,

With all due respect if you don't think players ever overlook other teams you are very uninformed. It happesn a lot. When the Griz play the Mt Techs of the world trust me they are looking past them. Nevada has had some recent success in the NCAA's and they read the same stuff we do in the press. Like we have no chance, or don't even deserve a seed. The coaches can tell them all they want, but if their mindset is on the next game, they will not be focused. I am not saying this will happen with Nevada, but it certainly is possible.
