      Hopefully UConn playing the friggen Arizona Cardinals' stadium last weekend will help them out for Final Four.

      And I'll settle for a UConn/UNC final too, ex!

        The main reason why UNC wanted to play @ Ford Field was to get a chance to play in a dome. It was a minor dissappointment UNC didn't get Indy or Glendale's region because I wanted them to have that experience leading into Detroit.

          too be honest this has been one of the more boring tournaments over the years but i think thats just from the power schools taking care of business

          i thought this year would be very exciting with all the upsets and close games during the season

          but every game seems to be a blowout and no close games except a view

              Why do you think Mike Rosario (a McDonald's All-American) signed with Rutgers last year? To be part of the storied Rutgers basketball tradition? No - he wanted to be an impact player in the Big East....
              I get what you are saying but isn't Rosario transferring to Georgia Tech? Apparently he didn't want to impact the Big East that much. LOL

              Anyway like I stated in my earlier post I don't have a problem pulling for any Big East teams other than Pitt. Call me old school, but I remember when rivals were rivals and you just didn't cheer for them regardless of whether they were in your conference or not.

                Rosario is staying, Corey Chandler is staying.

                  Oh I hadn't seen that. Last I heard they were both transferring but that was a few weeks ago.

                    Michigan State will only have a homecourt advantage if they make the title game.

                    The tickets for the F4 game's are evenly distributed but are usually sold by fans from one of the two losing F4 teams. If State beats UCONN though MSU fans will snap up a lot of the spare tix and UNC/Nova will be in for a road game.

                      Its hard to say the stadium holds 72,000 for the games. Are you sure each school gets 18,000 tickets? I saw tickets for the final 4 being sold before they knew what teams were in it.

                      I would imagine that the Auto Makers and other Detroit area businesses had a right to some tickets besides the tickets designated for the teams involved. So I think it will still be pro MSU to some degree.

                        There will be a ton of MSU fans there. True, there will be more for the championship game should we get past UConn, but with all the MSU alumni within a stone's throw of the D, there will be a huge presence, both inside and outside the stadium.
                        Quit making your stupid YouTube videos and start playing the game.

                          No question about it, MSU should have a huuuuge home court crowd for both games.

                          That said, UNC should crush them by 15+.

                              Thats what I'm thinking. I have to imagine that the bars and restaurants will be packed in the D come Saturday.
