Final Four

Here we area again and since last time, the field has been narrowed down from 16 to 4. Your final four teams are Boston College, Maine, Michigan State and North Dakota.
Wait a minute, those are the teams in the tournament I give a damn about. In the one I have been following on my blog here, the basketball tournament, The final four is made up of Florida, UCLA, Georgetown, and Ohio State. Can you feel the excitement? I picked Kansas to win it all, and once again they laid an egg in an important game. I am NEVER picking Kansas again, ever.
Florida and Ohio State could face each other in the championship game, but I don't think Ohio State will be able to pull another one out of their asses. I really hope UCLA beats Florida. As of right now, I am hoping John Thompson III beat Florida in the championship game and that's all I have to say about that.
Back to the Frozen Four, there were some great games this past weekend. Thanks to Altitude, I was able to watch all the college hockey I wanted to this weekend. The team I was most impressed with was BC. They looked good this past weekend and will take on a tough North Dakota team. These two teams have probably been the hottest teams the last couple months, and that semifinal game should be a great one. The only thing I am worried about on BCs end is that they take a lot of penalties, especially when teams flurry in their zone. This could be a problem as North Dakota has a very good set of forwards and could cause some problems. In the other semifinal game, Maine will take on Michigan State. Michigan State is the team I know the least about of the final four, and they will have their hands full with Maine, especially goalie Ben Bishop. Bishop is huge, 6-7 201 lbs, and has been playing well. This game will probably be a lot like the Michigan State Notre Dame game and low scoring, probably 1-0 or 2-1. Unfortunately, these games don't happen until April 5th so the anticipation will be building.
