759 ~ Georgetown -1
I think Defense is the difference. Plain & simple. I thought long and hard about this game because these teams mirror each other in almost every way and position on the floor. I can't get the Hoyas defense out of my head. Last week when they went to zone, N.C. couldn't do a thing. Not only that game but many others this year, the Hoyas have suffacated the opposing offense when need be. OSU has also been famous for scoring droughts against teams with great defense (Wisky,Mich St). My biggest fear here is the Hoyas getting in foul trouble. If that happens i think they are in big trouble. Here's hoping it doesn't! Georgetown 71 Ohio St 65
762 ~ Florida -3
I can't go against a team that returns everyone from last year and already pounded the Bruins once. Revenge is great but talent is better and i think UF has alot more of it. Just like last year i see no matchup for Horton and Noah in the middle. Ucla lost a couple of key players from last years team and Collison is great but ... I love the guard play of UF even better. Florida is the 2nd best team in the country at defending the 3 too. Too much inside and outside for the Gators here and they didn't all come back this season to do anything but repeat. Expect them to be focused and very comfortable in a place they are familiar with and a place that should be crawling with Gator fans from over the border. Too many weapons for UCLA's defense here (IMO)! Florida 77 UCLA 68
GOOD LUCK
