I think they will have a tough time getting past Wisconsin to the Final Four.

I think flordia will make it to the finals. My opinion on weither or not they will repeat. I would have to say no. I beleive if Unc plays their game they will be playing flordia the finals. Which then i Don't think the Big guys for flordia can contain Hansborough and Wright. But if flordia does contain them they have to watch lawson terry and wes miller shooting 3's.

i think they are rolling into the tournament like they did last year..they really have the easiest road to the final four...wisconsin is not as good as they were a few weeks ago..and florida has been there..experience is going to over take everything in their bracket...then we will see what happens when they get to the final four..the only team up front who can handle them, is georgetown...but there is still a long way to go...

dbowen, good stuff, just gotta disagree with you on one point. i was at the university of maryland the year after they won the title, and nobody thought or said in the media they were gonna go back to back. their title team was blake, dixon, mouton, wilcox and baxter. the year after they had blake and 4 different, worse starters. in the title year they were a #1 seed, the year after a #6. florida has the same team as last year, and a better seed.

These arguments are totally invalid. Florida can and will repeat this year. Like you said they have the easiest road to the Final Four, and they have the same exact team they had last year that won it all. It's not like UNC or Maryland where they lost there nucleus the year after they won the 'ship.

I don't think they will. I have felt that Kansas is probably the most talented and most deepest team. I think Florida will make it to the final four, but when they meet Kansas I think they will be out. I even feel if Kansas would lose to UCLA, that UCLA would be even able to beat them. I think there are more talented teams then florida, just not KU or UCLA. I think Ohio State could beat them, lets not forget Vanderbilt, Georgetown, and even Wisconsin. So no I don't think Florida will repeat. It wouldn't be a complete shock if they did, because they really did not lose anything from last year, but I don't think they will.

Florida will not repeat. There are way too many factors going against them; 1. they lacked focus at times during the season (similar to UConn's talented but flawed squad from last season) 2. Donovan's teams (excluding last year's NC team and the 2000 runner-up squad) have had trouble advancing early in the NCAAs 3. No team has repeated since Duke in 91-92 4. They are the "sexy" pick of the college basketball analysts (much like UCONN last year and Illinois the year before) which may prove to be the kiss of death. Plus Clark Kellogg picked them to win, and that's never a good sign. A fast team like the UNC Tar Heels or a team with size like Georgetown will eventually send Joakim and the boys back to the swamp uncrowned.
