Final Four Predictions

After doing some yardwork and painting around the house, I now have time to give my predictions for today’s Final Four....

Georgetown -1 vs. Ohio State - from the beginning of the tournament I called for Georgetown to win the title, so I am not backing off now....however, Ohio State concerns me even though the Hoyas are the better team....but somehow the Buckeyes are on a lucky streak of late and we all know what could happen.....the 3 concerns I have are:
1. Georgetown ripped Ohio State last year in the second round of the tournament....even though most of the Buckeye players from that team are no longer there, I know Thad Matta is using that for motivation....
2. Like I stated earlier, Ohio State has been fortunate....a blown call in the Xavier game kept OSU alive....who knows what can happen now....
3. God will be in the house....yes, Jim Tressel will be at the game....
I still am going with Georgetown even though the sweatervested wonder will be at the Georgia Dome.....Georgetown by 6

Florida -3 vs. UCLA - in my brackets, I had Florida playing Georgetown for the title....but this Bruins team is playing some solid basketball and great defense.....for 1 year the Bruins have been stewing about the shellacking they took from the Gators in last year’s title game....very few college teams have an opportunity to redeem themselves by playing basically the same team 1 year later.....UCLA will take advantage of the situation.....Bruins by 1 point....


All I know, forget about Joakim Noah or Greg Oden stealing the show....the real show stopper is this UCLA cheerleader...WOW....
