RETRO: final four blues

Oh yeah, isn't it crazy that we could have the same two teams in both the football and basketball college championship games during the same academic year? One school would be wild enough. If Florida gets it, and they look the best of these four, not only will they be the first team to repeat since the Hill-Laettner Dukies, and just one of a very few, I think they'll be the first school to finish 1st in football and hoops in the same year.

But, as I said before the season, repeating is very tough and reserved for only the greatest of great teams. Even Ewing and Jordan could not win twice (of course, they went up against each other). I don't see Florida as that great. I went with Ohio State, and they've been winning just barely so far. I'm not sold on them. Florida should, but I'll stay with the Buckeyes, who at least can say right now that they did finish both regular seasons in football and basketball ranked number one.

And if UCLA wins it all, I might have to move...
