by 
The top 50 rated all-time players in March Madness 08 has been posted by Gamespot. These are overall ratings of the best of the players from the classic teams in the game. If you missed it you can check out the complete list of classic teams here and the ratings of the top current players in the game here.
Clearly the most controversial placing on the list will be Kevin Durant coming in at #2. He had undeniably one of if not the best freshman year of any player in history. However he did only play only the one year which makes it more difficult to justify placing him over some of the most legendary names to have played college basketball.
Also revealed in the screenshots posted by Gamespot is that the teams appear to have their classic uniforms and in the fit style of the times.
