If Duke could rebound, UNC would be buried right now

Brian Zoubek is sitting right next to me at the bar. What should I do Duke-GAF?

Tug on his beard.
ask him about the creampuff game.
Its cut throat yo.
BTW Domino, your boys lead pretty much the entire 1st half of the 1st game and we won so you never know how this will go.

When Mason actually gives a fuck, he's not bad at all.
But Duke was never in this big a hole, nor were they playing this poorly.
I agree though, Carolina's got the talent to come back. Crazier things have happened.

Domino, is it just me or do Roy Williams teams have a tendency to come out REALLY flat in the first half? I don't even follow UNC basketball all that closely, and I've seen this happen a lot.

Apparently he was doing really well but now wants to focus all of his energy on some real-estate opportunity that "requires 100% of his attention"
lulz
Its a pattern. This year's team has been the worst about it though. Roy must give some craptastic pre game speeches.

Duke started the game on a 14-0 run.
in all honesty, the food business is not easy.

Pretty much.
It's hard to win any game when you spot the other team a two touchdown lead to begin.
Especially when your entire team is ice cold.

Great buzzer beater win by Valpo. Broekhoff saved their bacon.
Green Bay was playing lights out in the last 10 minutes....their point guard Sykes had 31 pts, was doing everything.
Valpo is the top seed in the Horizon League and with Detroit losing in the other semi, who most figured was their most dangerous threat (since Ray Mccallum Jr. and Detroit knocked off Valpo last year in the Horizon League Final on Valpo's homecourt).
Valpo I think has the oldest team in division I, they start 5 seniors. Glad to see them stay alive to the conference championship.

McAdoo just missed an open layup. Top 10 pick tho.

BTW, ESPN made the top 75 tourney moments of all time, and I swear 7 of the top 10 were feats done against University of Kentucky.
...are we the bad guys?

Kelly's had an awful game.
And I'm still concerned about Sheed falling off since the Miami game.

I seriously have no idea what's going to happen in the tourney.
Other than the ACC final in 2011, he usually sucks against UNC.
EDIT: Great game by Mason. For the shit I gave him last Saturday, he deserves props tonight
welp i didn't watch the second half, but i'm assuming we still lost.
damn near 36 mins of garbage time basically. we got punched in the dick and that was it.
it feels weird to go a whole season w/o beating a single good team. that's pretty much the book on the season.
it's been fun since we switched to the 4/1, but this team needs a major infusion of talent. more importantly they need to find their toughness. i cant see us making a deep run in the postseason so this was our super bowl. shame they didn't bother to show up.
i have to imagine we pissed away whatever chance we had at wiggins tonight.

I hear he is now leaning towards McNeese State.
Nah, I doubt it. None of the schools people keep saying Wiggins is interested in the most (FSU, UK, UNC) are that good this year. Really, UNC is the best of the bunch. I doubt it makes that big of a difference to him for next year.
Kansas is pretty damn good this year, but even they just lost to Baylor
though nobody thinks he's going to Kansas for some reason.Randolph Freelander

Lunardi has Duke at 1 overall after this game
http://espn.go.com/blog/collegebasketballnation/post/_/id/78795/bracket-update-duke-now-no-1-overall
I'd have Georgetown on the top line, after the beating they gave Syracuse and the one Baylor gave Kansas. It can all flip again in a week, anyway.

If you move Louisville up to the 1 line, TheNatural will lose his edge. He needs to be in top gear come tourney time.

Kansas as a #1 is a joke. I could see even GTown up there, at least they beat us and were equal in the Big East. Although it's ignored they basically got bailed out of the cancelled halfway finished Florida game earlier this year.
Damn Detroit got bumped from the Horizon, would of looked good for Pitt if they won.
edit; oh neat Florida Gulf Coast going to their first tourney, lol yet another team that going before Northwestern. I wonder in like 20-30 years if like only 10 teams 1 being Northwestern never been then again that probably not a long enough timeline for such a event to happen.

It would be pretty neat if they played Miami again.....and won
I hope that happens, man that'll be awesome.

Dan dakich, no one in big ten country has asked how Gonzaga would do in the big ten. In pretty sure you just made that up.

With nothing to play for this season due to the NCAA post-season ban, the team did better than I expected. Third straight 20 win season at the very least.
I expected the team to fold like a deck of cards given everything going on. Now if coach Donnie Jones can just fix those WTF losses, we'll be in better shape.
Off to the A12, or M12, 'Merica 12, etc., etc.

Not really for sure I agree with him saying they would be ont of the teams competing for the Big Ten title. They played and lost to Illinois at home and Illinois is 8-9 in the Big Ten. Probably going to be 8-10 after this game.

If there's any consolation, if you take out the first four minutes, UNC was just -2 compared to Duke.
Plus, there's almost no chance that the entire team as a collective can't hit the broad side of a barn, while Seth Curry makes all the bullshit he throws up again.
eh...its hard for me to put much stock in what amounted to 36 mins of garbage time. we never even threatened winning.
i still cant believe we havent gotten over shellshock meltdown mode yet. you could see it in their faces when Roy called the TO that the players didn't believe.

Yeah it's probably bullshit. The WCC is ass. 5 of the 9 teams have a losing record, and St Mary's is the only other team up for NCAA consideration.
Luckily with the NCAA tournament all of this will be decided unlike in football in which the Zags could be up for the title game without having played in a tough conference.

And with that we have locked up the number 2 seed in the big 10 tourney.

Congrats to Thad and the Basketball Bucks for another great season. It hasn't always been fun, but you couldn't possibly have asked them to end the season on a stronger note.
Now, it's tourney time.
