How far will UNI go?

[UNIFanSince1983]

I am just a worrier I guess. I don't like that people like Seth Davis have us going so far, but then I also get nervous about people picking us to lose.

The game just needs to get here so I can feel comfortable!

Go Panthers!

UNI always has good game plans going into the tournament. We've never lost a tournament game by more than 7, and even back to the McDermott days, Coach Jake probably had the game plan as an assistant for most of those close losses against Georgia Tech (national runner-up) in 2004, Wisconsin in 2005, and Georgetown in 2006. We almost got Purdue in 2009, and everyone knows about 2010.

If we have an off night, Tuttle gets in early foul trouble (doesn't usually happen), or Wyoming gets super hot anything can happen. But I like our chances in the first round and if Louisville wins, I think it will be a very fun game that could go either way.

I remember a quote from McDollar$ regarding Ben Jacobson - that he had never met anyone that could break down tape like Jake. This has to play into the prepping for an out of conference opponent.

My only bracket (I don't do multiples) lands them in the title game.

Ditto.

One bracket.

Go Panthers. My choice on merit. If Shocks can do it, so can Cats.

With any luck at all Sweet 16; perhaps final 8 with a lucky bounce or two.

Honestly they are my final 4 "surprise" team. DON'T LET ME DOWN!!!

Elite 8, with a realistic shot at the Final Four.

Or lose on Friday. How the hell do I know?

Please don't slaughter my bracket, UNI. WSU/UNI making Elite 8 runs is the only way I'm getting money.

Wouldn't it be some kind of fun to have a UNI/WSU rubber match in April?

I don't think fun could possibly describe that.

I considered not watching sports anymore after last year ... I cheer for two teams and both went undefeated, one winning a national title. If UNI/WSU match up in the title game, I'm done. Going out on a high note.

Go Shockers/Panthers

Congrats Panthers from a Shocker fan. Run deep, deep and then deeper.
