Thats all fine and dandy that you have a favorite team, but are you just cheering for those teams or do you actaully think they will win the championship? I was just wondering.

I think definitely Virginia. First, because i am a biased fan, and second because they are getting so much new talent this and next year that they'll be hard to stop.

id love to see G'town win but i would just be happy if they get past the quarter finals this year. I think the UVA will probably win it all this year since they have an amazing recruiting class this year and have done well in fall ball.

I put UVA. There are a bunch of good schools up there, with a lot of top talent, but I think the recruiting ability and power of those UVA coaches is going to pay off real well for them. Look at their team this year, and they practically look like a championship team.

why wouldnt JHU and UMD have legit shots at making a shot at the title look at who both teams return this year

UMD
Groot, Ritz, Evan, Sieverts,Phipps etc.

JHU
Rabil, Peyser, Huntley, Boyle, Kimmel etc.

duke has a good chance to win it they still have alot of talent and have strong recruiting and they have a very good chance to win it this year

Duke's middie line is short though, their attack line is pretty nuts. However lamade went to UVA, UVA is looking insanely stacked. I am going to go with UVA as the champ this year, and a godly contender for the next few years due to there insane recruiting

North Carolina is going to be real strong over the next 3-4 years.

http://www.lax.com/team_stats.phtml?team_id=1034&year=07

They only had 4 seniors last year, and none were even close to being the top scorers on the team. Their attack, defense and starting goalie are set for at least 2 years, and their midfield only needs a few more young ones to fill the spots of those seniors. They will be dangerous.

Syracuse will also be strong withing these next few seasons. Last year they only had a few seniors. Which IMO really made them struggle. This year they have one of the best recurting classes and will be a much better team. With Dan Hardy, Matt Abbott(clearing god you could say), Kenny Nims, Mike Leveille, Greg Niewieroski, John Galloway(Freshmen goalie from West Genesee, hopefully will be an instint impact), many other freshmen should do a great job in making this SU team good. Even though SU has all these great players I don't think this year is the year for SU, but soon it will be.

UVA has all the current players, strong freshman, and top commitees for the future too win multiple championships in the upcoming years. Maryland, Hopkins and UNC should also be strong especially in the next 2-3 years. I don't know what this talk is about duke, they will no doubt be a great team this year, but after that they are gonna have a hard time replacing their lost talent.

hopkins is just a dominant team and i predict they make the final four the next few years atleast and have a very good chance to win the national championship this year and they years that follow, but virginia and duke and i feel maryland and cornell are gonna great contenders also

virginia may have 4 of the top 5 recruits but we dont know how the transition into the college game will be for them. im going with duke because of their stacked attack once again and they also have a pretty nice d.

and im gonna predict that my dark horse for this season is going to be Navy

Virgina has the best chance. Virgina is always good, everybody knows Virgina gets the best recruits because Virgina is the best lacrosse state. Therefore Virgina will always have a chance to win a championchip.

1.) i dont think you said the word "Virginia" enough.( which you spelled wrong everytime)
2.) Every single team has a Chance to win a championship(also spelled wrong by you). Look at Delaware and Albany. any team could just have a breakout season and win. Anything is possible.
