Is there anyone that can stop UNC or are they winning it all this year?

Syracuse? They seem to be peeking at the right time, just like UNC but from what I've seen from UNC it seems like it is their destiny this year

North Carolina was one of the preseason favorites, ranked No. 1 prior to the start of the season, and the Tar Heels have finally shaken the “soft” label they were well aware of by winning four straight games to get to the sport’s final weekend. Big man Brice Johnson has been the go-to guy, but fellow senior Marcus Paige has started to find his swagger and also his perimeter touch of late.

Oklahoma or Nova can beat them.

Do we realize how easy UNC road has been?

They faced a 16, 9,5, and 6 seed to get to the final 4. Now they're facing a 10 to get to the title game.

Come tournament time you really need to throw "rankings/seeds" out the window. This year is a perfect example of that

No One is stopping them IMO

There isnt a minute in a game where they Dont have 5 guys on the floor that can score

They should dismantle the Cuse......

I give the Cuse some credit, but if you really look at their road to the 4:

Dayton - Not at all surprising they won
MTSU - (Whoever that team was) - Not at all Surprising they won
Gonzaga - Not really surprised they won
Virginia - Mildly surprising, but Virginia was a perfect style for Cuse


NC - I would be shocked if the Cuse won, just nighmare matchups everywhere on the court

I hate to 1: admit you're right and 2: That unc will win but this seems like there year.

Nova plays a great team game, so I give them a shot for sure

and if Buddy keeps playing the way he has, they have a shot

I just dont give Cuse a shot, and just my opinion UNC cuts em down, just seem to be playing some incredible ball at the right time

Did Kentucky win last year? :noidea:

I do actually think UNC will ultimately win, but they are nowhere near the list of prohibitive favorites that have gone down over the years.

'91 UNLV, '99 Duke, '15 UK.

UNC can be beat by anyone left. Sure they score a lot of points but they cannot win against any team that plays any level of defense. UNC cannot stop anyone from scoring and THAT is what will send them home. Let's not forget Roy Williams is their coach. As long as Roy is there the possibility of collapse is present. No one has choked in the Final Four more than Good 'Ole Boy Roy and he isn't any better than he was 20 yrs ago.

How did Syracuse do last month in Chapel Hill with all those matchup nightmares?

We will see, Id actually like to see it happen, but think UNC is playing on their best level all season, especially Marcus Paige, who wasnt playing well about a month ago

Oklahoma destroyed Nova in Hawaii early in the season, and I get a feeling that wont happen again next week
