or so I am hearing in the pre-game reports... various media outlets.

I think I agree with that. Texas has, to me, that 'bully' look.... ummmm, in a semi-nice way that is. They *DO* look tough to me... first time I saw them and before the game even began I turned to my grandson and said, "these guys look like brawlers to me"... (meaning physical... unafraid).

Heard a few guys say Virginia will try to slow the game down and Texas will try to speed it up. Yup... again, I agree, that will probably be how they come out... not sure the game will continue that way but I think it's sure to start that way.

I'm looking forward to this. I'm a lukewarm basketball fan during the season but come March Madness and... well, I don't go 'mad' but I like the hell out of it. - JamesJM
