2005 wins: 84-76

In one of the most confusing games to watch of all time, the experienced 04-05 Demon Deacons edged the younger versions of themselves. Though the 2004 team made the Sweet 16 and the 2005 team was bounced in the second round by horrific seeding horrific game location West Virginia, they had one of the three best offenses in the Ken Pom Era.

In this contest, The '05 Justin Gray led all scorers with 29 points. Gray went 10-15 from the field, including 4-6 from deep. He also chipped in 6 assists and 4 rebounds. Sophomore sensation Chris Paul went 12-12 from the charity stripe and finished with 19 points. The team just would not miss in this game.

#2 2008-2009 vs. #3 1960-1961

2009 wins: 85-72

Bill Packer tried his damndest, but he simply could not stop sophomore Jeff Teague from penetrating. The Indiana native finished with 28 points, including 6 three pointers and one nasty dunk. The 2009 squad simply had too much talent and athleticism. Al-Farouq Aminu and James Johnson used their length and athleticism to control the glass and alter shots, while Ish Smith was a blur in the fast break.

Len Chappell put up excellent numbers of his own, but that was mostly due to high volume shooting and the frantic pace of play in this game. Can the 2009 squad take down the 2005 squad? A lot of NBA talent on the floor in that one.
