Rankings: Inside-Outside Combos

FOR A COMPLETE PREVIEW OF THE 2006-2007 SEASON, CLICK HERE

Balance is key in college basketball. Even if you are stacked in the backcourt, you may be weak on the interior. Conversely, a team may be loaded in the paint, but not very potent on the perimeter. To make noise in the NCAA Tournament, production from both inside and outside are necessary. Here are the top inside-outside duos:

1. Texas A&M: Acie Law, Joseph Jones
2. Florida: Corey Brewer/Taurean Green, Joakim Noah
3. Alabama: Ronald Steele, Jermareo Davidson
4. UCLA: Arron Afflalo, Luc Richard Mbah a Moute
5. Ohio State: Jamar Butler/Daequan Cook, Greg Oden

6. North Carolina: Tywon Lawson/Reyshawn Terry, Tyler Hansbrough
7. Pittsburgh: Levance Fields, Aaron Gray
8. Mississippi State: Jamont Gordon, Charles Rhodes
9. Nevada: Mercelus Kemp, Nick Fazekas
10. Virginia Tech: Jamon Gordon/Zabian Dowdell, Coleman Collins

11. LSU: Dameon Mason, Glen Davis
12. Duke: Greg Paulus, Josh McRoberts
13. Georgia Tech: Javaris Crittenton/Anthony Morrow, Ra'Sean Dickey
14. Wisconsin: Kammron Taylor, Brian Butch
15. DePaul: Sammy Mejia, Wilson Chandler

  1. Just a prediction - I think the Tennessee combo of Chris Lofton and Duke Crews is gonna be phenomenal. We already know what Lofton is capable of but Crews is gonna add to the danger of this combo.

  3. What good inside-outside combo does UVA have? Sean Singletary or J.R. Reynolds and what inside player? Jason Cain?
