    I hear you, but let's just see if they can beat an inferior Clemson team before we give them a victory over the #1 seed tomorrow.

    All even with 54 seconds to go. I believe it is FSU's ball.

    There is one thing that keeps FSU from being a top20 team IMO...Stupidity.

    They just play dumb. The second half of this game is a good example..Not going to Thorton and stupid shot selection.

    BTW, FSU ball with 8 seconds left..Clemson just committed a backcourt. Tie game.

    LOL..Now the truth comes out...You and ND get so touchy when anyone thinks someone can beat UNC.

    Terrible call to cost CLemson the game, that's awful. By the way, that has nothing to do with it at all...FSU wont beat Carolina no matter how many people predict it.

    Won't and can't are two very different things.

    I don't think they will, but you're kidding yourself if you don't think they can. Anytime you have a player like Thornton on your team, you have a chance to win.

    FSU advances.....Tough to end the game on a foul call and may not have even been a foul...Of course, the refs did a poor job of not calling the foul on Douglas when he was shooting a 3.

    Does this make FSU a lock???

    If they play like they did today, Carolina wins by 20.. But yes, anything can happen on any given day.

    That's if UNC plays well and actually decides to play defense.

    If UNC has a defensive lapse, FSU can put 90+ up on them.

    Not even close. They'd be a lock with a win over UNC.

    They're probably one of the last 4 out at this point. If other conference tournaments go as expected and other bubble teams lose, theres a good chance they get in. GT isn't even definitely a lock at this point even though they'll still likely get in even with a 1st round loss.

    GT is without a doubt a lock now.

    GT is a lock, i don't see them being left out...Florida State is not in right now...I think a close game with UNC gets them in however, they are that close

    Lunardi has GT as a #9 seed now.

    BTW, don't forget the fact that FSU lost some down the stretch without Douglas, their starting PG. The committee will look at that.

    All true, but can't you say that about any game really...

    If they beat UNC, they're a lock.

    And I'm not changing my prediction.
