Carolina looks unstoppable to me. Can't root for them but at the same time will love the tarnished nature of their championship and hope it gets looked at under the microscope.

UNC is absolute bottom of the barrel for me. I will root for literally any other team before I root for UNC. Go Nova.

A look back in History-

Villanova 1985 under Coach Rollie Massimino won the National Championship.

Unranked in the final AP regular season poll.

Defeated Dayton- then knocked off top seeds Michigan and Maryland- Proceeded to beat # 2 NC to make the final four.

Beat # 2 Memphis State in the Semi-Facing Georgetown as a nine point dog won the game 66-64.

This 2016 Nova team is very impressive on both ends of the floor. I do not see them losing to North Carolina.

86 -71 NOVA

They shot video game numbers against Oklahoma. I don't count on that happening for two games in a row. They'll have to find another way to win. And a way to prevent four million fouls from being called against them.

and I'm pulling for Jalen and 'Nova.

Just my opinion but I think Roy Williams and Boeheim from Syracuse should both be banned from the hall of fame for cheating. Never understand why we honor coaches that do not play by the rules. should not matter how good a coach you are if you cant win fairly?

No coach is "playing by the rules". Don't fool yourself.

Now, now....according to Boeheim, it's not cheating if all you did was break a few rules. And of course Roy had no idea about those sham classes his guys were taking.

Definitely pulling for Nova. I think their defense is outstanding. The matchups might be an issue for Nova though.

Reluctantly rooting for Nova. By no means a fan, but at this point we must prevent another powder-blue blood UNC title.
