Twitterverse speaks out
YOU know it’s going to be a fun survey when you ask “who do you think will win the UAAP basketball crown?” and then watch the University of the Philippines get the second most number of votes.
The Maroons have struggled for several seasons in the centerpiece event but that hasn’t stopped their supporters from keeping the faith—even if faith is mostly what they hope would fuel UP this season.
Here are some of the predictions UAAP fans sent our way via Twitter:
@Matters_is_Back
Ateneo because of Slaughter, Salva, Ravena and Buenafe and Coach Norman’s system
UP FIGHTING MAROONS! DAHIL TAKOT NA SILANG MAWALAN NG MEAL ALLOWANCE.
@wealthbender
NU will win this year, as shown in the pre season, they are the team to beat. Bobby parks jr. Improve alot also
@neilaga
I think DLSU is going to win it! Because @jeronteng is therrrreee! >:)) plus they have improved so much :P
@goanneD
@TheSprezzatura
Imo UST. Veterans & they had a game w/ alumni-PBA players. I think that’s a morale booster
@DoraemonDimaya
Either Ateneo or NU will win the championship. Medyo alanganin Ateneo at PG. FEU will be the darkhorse.
ADMU..no one can guard Greg plus the leadership of Salva n d court smarts of Keifer..add d experience of Coach Norman.. :)
I think NU will have a chance with the crown if they maintain the improvements they made during the preseason. Hihi :)

@ambebi
Ateneo no doubt! #UAAP #inquirer
I should say @UPMaroons, but that would be wishful thinking. So I'd say @ateneodemanilau.
@LaDy_HuSh
@renierbona
FF will include nu, ateneo, ust, la salle. nu and ateneo will be in the finals but ust will be the champion. hehe.
@jonthree2003
UP! For a change! It's about time! #inquirer #UAAP
ADMU still King, but NU, DLSU and FEU will give them a run for the crown. Good build up and succession plan #uaap #inquirer
