Who will come on strong come tournament time?

Florida - Very good team. off day on the road at MD. should cruise the rest of the regular season.

Colorado - Putting together a great year. Big win on the road at Penn State. Two games in three days a long way from home will not end well at Stony brook.

Penn State - They were there last year. Will most likely play Maryland twice before the tournament, being battle tested will help prepare them in the NCAA Tournament.

Stony Brook - Easier schedule than most. They should be well rested for the tournament but not sure if they will be prepared.

Cornell, Princeton, Penn: - All three Ivy's are tough. All three play tough non league schedules. Teams could see each other a third time in the NCAA's.

USC - As much of a chance as anyone else.

The rest of the field - Can their be a real surprise ? Syracuse, Northwestern, Notre Dame, Virginia, Boston College, Virginia Tech???

I think it's wide open for a team that get favorable draw and plays well at the right time.



Penn State will be in top 4.
