Welcome to Terrapin Country!

So I am a huge, and I mean huge ACC basketball fan. My team of course is the MD terrapins. When I met Dave he was not into basketball at all. In fact he kept betting me that teams would beat MD during the tourney. He must not have understood MD’s history at that point in his life. Needless to say, he lost his bets and MD won the tourney. Dave has since become more of a b-ball fan and even a Terps fan. Last year the UMD Women’s team got there opportunity as they became national champs, and MD became one of only 4 schools that can claim both women’s and Mens B-ball championships. So after two years of not meeting terrapin’s fans expectations, UMD men’s team really seems strong this year. Defiantly could be a sleeper team come March. They just aren’t getting as many props as they should. Let’s see they’ve won 6 straight games including two wins against Duke and one against UNC. Both were ranked pretty high at the time of game time. Earlier in the year they beat St Johns and Michigan to win the 2K sports hoops classic tourney, and then they beat Illinois at home. The freshmen on this team are strong and MD is a big contender. I’d keep an eye out for this young, but impressive team. It’s nice to see them strong like they were a few years ago. This is a team that made it into March Madness 11 years running…and they are back! ! (and don’t forget the strong Women’s team to!). Whoo-hoo! GO TERPS! And go ACC! (Only the best conference in college B-ball!). It would be nice to see both teams win the ACC tournament for sure. I’d give my predictions for the final four, but it’s still a little early. I’m thinking an ACC team (but its hard to tell who. There are to many to choose from with 6 locks into march already), Ohio, Wisconsin, and maybe UCLA.
