Take Carolina off list of teams to worry about
- Thread starter ulismyman

Haven't been worried about anybody on a neutral court all year. But maybe I don't watch enough games? I do know that the Cal teams that haven't peaked too early have done well in March sans '13.
Basketball is a game of matchups. We do NOT want to play UNC. They will kill us in the middle.
Hard to win on the road. See UCLA, Auburn, LSU.
I don't think you can say "take them off the list of teams to worry about" based on 1 game.

Yep UNC would smash us we match horrible with them. WE need teams without too many quality bigs like KU would had Ellis and a bunch of chumps or UL who has Onuaku and bunch suck. ect .
if their bigs stay out of foul trouble. I agree about matchups, every game starts that way and then the whistles take over whether warranted or not .
Louisville is a 1 point favorite tonight. North Carolina experiencing some struggles in the matchup isn't surprising.
I'm not worried about unc for one reason....roy williams..he can't develop his teams. This unc team will be the same unc team in march...they won't continue to improve.
Louisville is pretty soft on the interior (at least, they got destroyed by us earlier, pre-lineup change). If they're beating North Carolina on the inside, I'm not very concerned about North Carolina.
Then there's this. Roy just wants to run, and our guards seem much better than theirs. Paige hasn't been good at all lately.
I understand your skepticism of my view. But this isn't the Hells at their best.
One thing to our advantage: they play uptempo, which is our A-game.
I'm worried about the officials in their back pocket. They get that KU home cooking style ....even on the road.
nah,.... their fans don't travel well enough ..... they face an actual basketball school , it will almost be like a road game for OU.
I think UL is good enough to win it all. Along with about 20 other teams
lol.... no chance in hell UL has 6 straight wins in them. The entire game was more like which team wanted to lose more...
Tarholes have played 6 road games and are 3-3.
Lost at Northern Iowa
Lost at Texas
Lost at Skankville
Big road wins at Florida State, Virginia Tech and their signature win at a neutered Syracuse.
Overrated as usual.

I've been saying they were overrated all year. Every pundit I''ve heard lately basically call them the best team by a good margin. They have it all, blah, blah, blah.
Oklahoma is the only team I'd rather not play.. UNC doesn't scare me.. Well Oklahoma and Uconn.. Besides those two,, no one else is a fright..
Are you serious ? Virginia didn't beat them, they DESTROYED them. Plus they let UL score the last 4-6 points at will. If we had to go through UNC, UL, and Kansas to win the championship I'd feel really good about our chances.
I'm not scared of any team out there. Tourney time we'll be ready. OU won't make it to the Final 4. 
Any team loses to Cards i cant take seriously..Virginia gave UNC blueprint to beat Cards...couldnt do it
We match up horribly with UNC. I hope you're not basing this opinion off losing 1 conference road game to a ranked team after starting 8-0 in that conference. You should never base an opinion off of any single game on Feb 1st and nobody looks good after a loss. I'll be honest, I hope we end up far away from them in the tourney cause they are a matchup nightmare for us.
We allowed that game to get close, we had a 16 point lead on them than we stopped playing because our young guys thought they had it won. Same thing happened at Auburn. The lesson was finally learned after that loss.
I agree. And we are definitely better now then we were at that point in the season
IDK, there's just something about UNC that I don't trust and I'm not talking about their AFAM studies. They just don't look that good to me. I didn't watch tonight's game but I have seen a few others. Not impressed by their defense at all.
Also, how is the ACC such a dominant conference when UNC goes 8 games before they actually play a decent opponent? Looks like they've been feasting on teams like BC, Fla st, wake, Va Tech and G-tech.
Teams I would like the cats to avoid :
Michigan State
Oklahoma
Iowa State
Virginia
That's about it and Virginia is a stretch but they did put it on Louisville pretty good. You have to be a dam good team to do what they did.

We matchup horribly? I don't see that at all.
The UNC bigs are soft as marshmallows.
No way they keep our guards out of the lane.
Ulis would eat Paige or whoever guards him alive.
I believe Murray would light them up.
This cracks me up. Whenever our fans put down UL, they put down our team. Its so freaking ignorant its comical.
UL is our ONLY good win on the season. Duke is a shitty win, a team that will lose 10-12 games and be a 9 seed or worse. We have ZERO quality road wins. Our only win over a ranked a team is UL. But you keep putting them down, it only makes our resume look even shittier than it already is.
