Michigan vs Louisville Who Do You Got Winning
Now that we have the College Basketball National Championship set between Louisville and Michigan lets look at a few things first. How many people thought these would be the two teams we would see at the end? I can almost bet not many people thought these would be the teams we would be talking about. I know I would not have guessed these two would make it all the way to the end. Lets look at both teams and how this one stacks up.
Michigan loves to shoot the three ball and at times that hurts them, but not very often. Against the Orangemen they showed they can win even when the three ball does not fall for them. They will need to have another good game from all angles if they want to upset the Louisville Cardinals. Michigan can be crowned champions, but I think they will need to shoot better.
For Louisville they also struggled at times against Wichita State, but when they needed to pull through they did. Louisville needs to play better especially defensively if they want to be Michigan. The Kevin Ware factor will be in full force on Monday Night. With that said I do like the Cardinals to become National Champions of the college basketball world.

Jimmie Johnson Wins At Martinsville Again!
This is becoming old hat for Jimmie Johnson, but he will tell you winning here is tough. Watching him get around the track that would be hard for the average person to believe. Johnson notched his 8th win at Martinsville. He led 347 of the 500 laps for the victory. Clint Bowyer and jeff Gordon rounded out the top three. Jimmie johnson had his usual day at Martinsville never venturing out of the top 10 and always ready to pounce to the lead when he wanted too. Johnson has this track down and is always a threat to win here.

Final Four Predictions Who Will Win
Now here at Sports blogging Network we get many requests to make predictions on games and sometimes we do and sometimes we do not. Today, I will give you my opinion on the two games in the Final Four. Louisville vs Wichita State should be a very shocking game to say the least. The Shockers shocked everyone to make into the Final Four. They are a very good basketball team and that is why they are here. I think the journey ends here as I love for Louisville to beat them by 10-15 points. Louisville will use a wave of emotion to take control of the game and ride it into the Championship game. Take Louisville and out should be fine.
The second pits Syracuse against Michigan. Now for me Michigan is a team I did not expect to be here. The one problem with Michigan is when you live by the three point shot eventually you will die by it. Against the swarming defense of Syracuse I think that is what will happen. I really like the Orange men in this game by about five points. It should be a good a me though and one you will not want to miss.
We have Syracuse and Louisville in the Championship game.The winner will be announced Monday on the premise we got these two game correct. We all know how unpredictable college basketball can be sometimes.
Auburn Reeling From Accusations
The Auburn Football program finds itself defending itself as more and more accusations come out on a daily basis. Besides altered grades and paying players drugs were also said to be involved. Drug testing was skirted at Auburn during this title run which should not come as a shock. These accusations are indeed some very powerful ones and hopefully for the school they are not true.
My take on this whole situation is in the end we will probably find out some of they will be true. Former players do not make up stories just to get their name in the press. Most likely what they are saying is probably the truth. If that is the case Auburn may be asked to vacate the title that they won in 2011.
College Football is big business these days and schools and alumni understand this very well. Keeping players happy means they are likely to say longer. No matter what happens let's hope that all these things said are just lies. If they are not this will be a very ugly mess for the Auburn Tigers football program.

The Streak Ends What's Next For The Heat
The Miami Heat winning streak ended at the hands of the Chicago Bulls, but now it is time to look at the streak in perspective and what it means in the bigger picture. Winning that many games in a row is tough no matter how you look at it. Yes, they did beat some bad teams along the way, but they did beat some good ones as well. Being able to come back in some of those wins was just amazing. Lebron James is having another MVP season and win that award this year again.
Now that the streak is over the Miami Heat need to look at the bigger picture and that is an NBA Championship. The streak was nice, but reality is if they do not win the championship the streak really did not mean much at all. Yes, the Miami Heat have the second longest winning streak in NBA history, but it will be a lost season for them. This is why the Miami Heat will have even added heat to win a championship this season.
It's going to be interesting to see how they handle the rest of the season and the playoffs. The pressure of the streak is over, but another pressure takes it's place. Hopefully the Miami Heat will be able to handle it as without a championship it's a lost season for them.

Dwight Howard Returns To Orlando Is He Ready For The Response He Will Get
Dwight Howard is heading back to Orlando for the first time and the welcome he may get could just shock him. Howard eft on bad terms and we have learned that NBA Basketball fans do not take kindly to superstars jumping ship and landing somewhere else. If you do not believe me ask Lebron James how tough it was to play in Cleveland his first time back. Dwight better be prepared for the worst when he steps onto the court in Orlando. Maybe Dwight can talk to his old teammates, but he also burned some bridges there as well.
Howard was quoted in an article saying his teammates were people nobody really wanted. That was probably not the best thing to say in the press even if it was true. Many Orlando Magic players did not take kindly to those words and they will be out for revenge tonight. Even though ony one player will be in uniform I'm sure he is still not happy with Dwight Howard's comments. Howard still has not grown up yet and his comments continue to get him in trouble. It should be an interesting game in Orlando tonight that's for sure.
