Villanova looks much more comfortable than OU playing in the mega stadium setting.

Wonder if Syracuse's Carrier Dome experience will give them a comfort edge over UNC in the second game.

Desired outcome. Looking forward to tomorrow night.

Carolina, +4 on talent. They can sit 2 of their starters for 15 minutes and still win easily against top teams. They have 8 legitimate championship caliber starters.

Wildcats +3 on coaching. Jay Wright has been masterful in his defensive schemes throughout the tournament, and beat a solid well coached Kansas team already.

Carolina has an enormous advantage on the front line, Villanova is the better defensive team. If the Wildcats can contain UNC's guards they'll win.

I do believe just too many horses to overcome - Carolina by 5.

As always, I'm supporting the dog.
