Anyone prefer which team we play in the next round? If we get tennessee we already played them once and barely beat them so we know they will be tough. Come to think of it did Oden even play against tennessee earlier in the year? Even if he did it should be an interesting matchup if tennessee does win today. Virginia has 2 really good guards but I don't know if they are a big team or not. What does anyone else think?

Oden had 24 points and 15 rebounds against UT.
I would prefer Virginia.

I guess I must have forgot that he played that well against UT. Just wondering why do you prefer Virginia?

1. UT can use revenge as a factor and that works really well.
2. Chris Lofton
3. I don't want to see Bruce Pearl's naked chest anymore.

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

NEAL C . LAURON DISPATCH Mike Conley Jr. gets ready to block a shot by Drew Lavender. Conley scored the first seven points of the overtime period.
LEXINGTON, Ky. ? He threw the kids into the crucible of North Carolina?s Dean Dome before the season was three weeks old. He took them to Florida knowing the likelihood of the defending national champions chomping them into Gator bait.
Rather than taking it a game at a time, though, as coaches always tell you they do, the coach of the Ohio State men?s basketball team was thinking ahead. There
was a method to Thad Matta?s madness, and it concerned March.
"I could not be prouder of what these guys did of keeping their composure," Matta said yesterday. "As I told (them), ?We?ve been here before.? " Nine points behind Xavier with less than three minutes to play in an NCAA Tournament second-round game in Rupp Arena, the Buckeyes won 78-71 in overtime with a comeback maybe only they believed was possible.
