2006-7 College Basketball Sweet 16
November 20, 2006
By Benjamin Miraski
College basketball season officially kicks off tonight in the minds of many people. Maui is always a spectacle to see. It attracts the best teams year after year, and has constantly provided the perfect atmosphere for upsets (Think Chaminade over a #1 Virginia squad in 1982).
With that in mind, we have had games for a few weeks now, and it is time for me to weigh in on what I think are the top teams in college basketball. Each week, I will rank my Sweet 16 based on the games through the previous Sunday. Remember, this is my brain, not the MRI here.
My Sweet 16:
- Florida
- Pittsburgh
- North Carolina
- Wisconsin
- LSU
- UCLA
- Ohio State
- Memphis
- Washington
- Syracuse
- Duke
- Alabama
- Arizona
- Texas
- Maryland
- Georgetown
How do I leave Kansas out? Easy. They have lost two many players over the first few weeks of the season, and they have a tough loss to Oral Roberts. I would have them in the top 25, but right now, not the top 16.
