USC preview

Massey hasn't posted the game prediction, but it is interesting to note that while Duke defense was #2 and UConn #3, which seemed to play out yesterday, USC's D is #17. Hoping Massey is right.

Also, UConn's offense is #4 and USC is #25 (hard to believe, but that's what the model computes.)

Still, big games are unpredictable. Flipping a coin may be the most accurate pediction.

Interesting: The E8 had four each #1s and 3s.

This is a pick 'em game to me. We need to avoid foul trouble, have first-weekend Ash show up, and our three seniors need to rise to the occasion if we are to prevail in my opinion. USC starts three grad students and a Junior along side freshman sensation JuJu. In view of that experience and the fact that they played in the toughest conference in the country this year, I don't think we can count on them having a subpar game like Duke did against us. I think we are going to have to play at the top of our game and earn it if we are to advance.

From the start I have picked UCONN and SC in the finals, but now I feel NCST will take out SC. RPI has UCONN over USC by 10. Take the Huskies over USC because they are the more experienced team on this platform. Buckets will out perform Juju but better yet the team will outlast USC. Let’s go Huskies!!!
