2007 NCAA Basketball Championship - Florida Gators vs. Ohio State Buckeyes - Title Game Monday

It all comes down to this. We have the defending champion Florida Gators against this year's trendy team, the O.S.U. Buckeyes.

People have cast a glance at Ohio State all year, because they have freshmen sensation Greg Oden. Despite having less than Jabbar-esque numbers this year, Oden is expected by everyone to be the first pick in the draft this year. He's the next big big man.

Meanwhile, the Gators have proven winners on the college level, guys like Al Horford and Joakim Noah, the son of former French tennis star, Yannick Noah.

There are certainly some wacky looks being thrown down at the Final Four this year. Noah and his crazy hair kind of makes him the Sanjaya of college basketball. Greg Oden, on the other hand, all of 19 years old, looks like a middle-aged man. He's definitely rolling out a Robert Parrish look, which is impressive for a teenager.

By the way, I hope Oden ends up with the Celtics in this year's NBA lottery. The NBA needs a good Celtics team, and Oden would look great in the Irish green. That being said, I'm sure he ends up in Memphis or Charlotte.

Here's the Bodog odds for the title game.

Florida -5

Ohio State +5

So Florida's a big favorite. I hate to say it, but they have the depth and experience. I would like to see Ohio State pull it off, but I have been consistently underwhelmed by them this year. Obviously, they made it to the final game, so they are an awfully good team. But Oden is chronically in foul trouble and I don't see why Monday will be any different.

It's a rematch of the BCS Football Championship Game earlier this year. For the sake of THE Ohio State University fans, I hope this turns out a little different.
