Re: Texas A&M is overrated They are, the majority of people think they will crush Memphis in the sweet 16I'm not buying itThis team lost to LSU by double digits, lost to Texas Tech (twice), and lost to Oklahoma State in a seed deciding game for them, when Oklahoma State was on a cold streak. People talk about how Memphis had an easy as hell conferance schedule, look at Texas A&M's non-conferance schedule. They played two ranked teams in they're nonconferance schedule....they lost both of them...other than that the hardest team they played was Winthrop, and the other teams were easy as hell (Prarie View A&M, Lamar, Louisiana Tech, Saint Louis, Idaho State, Arkansas Little Rock, Pacific, Fordham, Jacksonville, Auburn, Grambling State were the other teams). They don't have any backup big men, and their bench isn't talented (They have 13 guards, who the hell has 13 guards?). Memphis on the other hand, is one of the deepest teams in the nation, and we only have two seniors on our whole team too, but their also one of the least known power teams. I have them making the final four.All in all, Texas A&M is overrated, I can't believe some people have them winning it all, that's f*cking ridiculous

There bench is one of the best in the country. You must have never seen them before. 19 players on it and they have all played in games this year. They have a talented bench, just some of the players don't get that much playing time. Watch some of their games.TAMU is one of the deepest teams in the nation also.Two seniors on your team will hurt you more than help in the NCAA tourney. Especially since one doesn't play too much. Don't have too many juniors either. TAMU is really experienced on the other hand.I have them in the Final Four, beating Memphis in the Sweet 16.
Re: Texas A&M is overrated Memphis is more overrated than A&M is.....Get off Memphis' dick..TAMU is talented..Memphis is talented..stop complaining because everybody thinks they're better than your beloved Memphis who won't win sh*t and will make it to the sweet 16 at best..Memphis played in a weak conference and will be proven to be overrated after the tournament is over
Re: Texas A&M is overrated ^^How can you say Memphis is overrated, when no one is even rating them, as a 2 seed people are treating them like a 6 seed
Re: Texas A&M is overrated lol, we will see what happens.....Louiville will beat them in round of 32, guarantee itpeople need to get off Acie Law's dickand I wouldn't be a damn bit surprised if Penn beat Texas A&M, it might happen, Penn is a decent team

Looking at their body of work the only tournament teams they beat were an average Kentucky team at home and Gonzaga by a point in overtime. This was only three games after Gonzaga's starting center was suspended indefinitely. They got smoked by Tennessee, lost to Georgia Tech at home, and lost to a mediocre team Arizona.Texas A&M on the other hand lost:at LSU by 12- When LSU actually cared whether they won or lost.at UCLA by 3- No shame in that.at Texas Tech by 2- On the road in a major conference is tough. Tech is a tournament team.Texas Tech again by 2- Tech is a tournament team coached by Bobby Knight. They are a very strong team.at Texas by 2- No shame in that.Oklahoma State by 1- Playing a team that was fighting for its tournament lives.Texas A&M beat:Kansas IN LAWRENCE.Winthrop by 20Texas by 18Based on each team's full body of work A&M should be seeded ahead of Memphis. Neither team has a "bad loss," and A&M has more "quality wins."BTW Grizz, I predict the winner of Creighton/Nevada will beat Memphis, that is if they can get past the Mean Green

Re: Texas A&M is overrated There is a differance between Memphis and other teams....Memphis has John Calipari.....other teams don'tMassachusetts was in the A-10, pretty similar to the C-usa, A-10 was all UMass Umass UMass, C-USA is Memphis Memphis Memphis.....people said the same sh*t about UMass ten years ago, and they happened to make the National Championship...John Calipari can do the same with Memphis
Re: Texas A&M is overrated UMass also had Marcus Camby who was a friggin tank....Memphis is a really good team but they honestly were way overrated..they won't go to the final four
Re: Texas A&M is overrated They might not, anything can happen is my point..I have no more comment on this, I will just say we will see what happens
Re: Texas A&M is overrated One last thing Grizz, UMass never made it to the title game, they lost to Kentucky in the semis. You said that the A10 was similar to the CUSA, but in 96, when they lost to UK in the tournament, the A10 had 3 teams in the final four. (GW and Temple were the other 2)

Re: Texas A&M is overrated My fault. Typo, 3 teams in the tournament. Compared to CUSA only having one this year.

The clutch shot in Kansas? The clutch shots in texas to force double OT? The shot at home against Tech at home that could have won that game?
Re: Texas A&M is overrated Acie Law has proven himself to be a First Team All American. As gay as it sounds, he deserves to have his dick roden by the media and fans. And Texas A&M is alot more tested than Memphis. They have had some losses, but they have also had some big wins. I have then beating Memphis as well when they meet...
Re: Texas A&M is overrated defensivly Dorsey isnt as good as Camby...but hes pretty damn close.Memphis is being unerrated by alotve people, but we like that as Tigers...we'll see what they can do....which is go really far in the tourney.
Re: Texas A&M is overrated I don't even think A&M will get past Louiville, the Cardinals are on fire, and the Aggies were damn close to losing to Penn
