It’s a maiden voyage for college football’s new championship format; gone is the BCS system and in is the four-team Playoff, with the iconic Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl serving as semifinal match-ups to determine the National Championship participants on January 12th in Arlington, TX.
With the injury to Neymar it now looks like Argentina is the best choice to continue the streak of South American teams winning the World Cup on their home continent.
Argentina and the Netherlands Play for a Spot in the Final
In what has all the makings of a Classic in São Paulo, the Netherlands meets Argentina for the right to play for the Big Prize. The Netherlands had looked unstoppable in almost every aspect of the game before a somewhat substandard effort last time out versus Costa Rica while Argentina?
Undermanned Brazil Hopes to Hold Off Germany in First World Cup Semi
Host country Brazil booked their ticket into the semi-finals of World Cup 2014 but things couldn’t have gone much worse for the South American juggernaut. Wolrd Cup star Neymar will miss the match with a fractured vertebra and Captain and central defender Thiago Silva will be suspended after is suspended after a second yellow card.
With every game the pressure builds on the host nation. There is always pressure on the favourite and the host but when you combine the two, especially in a soccer mad country like Brazil you get some serious intensity.
I know that once you get to the Final Four the notion of underdog becomes subjective but I am still very surprised with the outcome of Florida vs. UConn. Not only did the Huskies beat the top team in the county but they did so fairly obviously.
This year’s NCAA tournament has produced the most unlikely final since the field expanded to 64 teams in 1985, and with it an interesting final is set to played by a pair of teams, neither of which are a top three seed or better and missed the tournament the year before.
As good as the Gators are they must think there is something to go on to have to face the last team that beat them to advance to the Championship Game. It was by only point but a loss is still a loss, especially when you only have two of them all season long.
No. 2 Wisconsin will face off against eighth-seed seed Kentucky in Final Four action on Saturday night in Arlington, looking to punch their ticket to the National Championship game.
Besides undefeated Wichita State, which flamed out in the Big Dance 3rd round, the Florida Gators ended the season with the nation’s longest winning streak.
Well we are down to the final weekend now with just 4 teams remaining. If I had to I would say there are only a couple of surprises at the Final Four.
After bringing in arguably the greatest recruiting class ever and being named the top team in the country in the preseason AP poll, the expectations placed on the Kentucky Wildcats were high.
Even though the Huskies are not the highest seed left in the field (they are a #7 while Kentucky is a #8) it seems like everyone is looking at them like they are a cinderella story.
The Wisconsin Badgers are headed to the Final Four for the first time since 2000, on Saturday, and the only thing stands between them and their second NCAA Tournament title is Kentucky.
