There are 4 crews at each site correct? So since only 2 crews would do the 2nd round at each site, we still might have a chance at no Higgins. I doubt it, seeing as how he's done it so long he'll probably be advanced, but there's hope.

Also bad news for West Virginia, since Hightower is Mr. Duke.

I would agree, there is a good possibility. However, the other two guys working this one worked WVU's game on Thursday as well, so its tough to say. That at least makes me think the chances are lower. Perhaps UCLA will get the honor.

Not "crews" necessarily. Twelve different officials. Their performances are rated, and those that rate highest work the next round, and on down the line. At least that's how I think it works. Seeing 2 of the guys who worked Thursday's WVU game also working this one, along with Never Steady Eddie, gives me hope that we will not be subjected to WC Fields tonight.

Humm maybe a 33% chance?

On a side note WV just set a huge pick on Paulus.

T on Higgins for yelling about the pick being a foul.

Too bad they whistled that pick as a foul.  What a joke.  Complete flop-job.  Paulus is a pansy.

Huggins just got whistled for a T.  I like the strategy to get on the refs early before it gets out of hand in Duke's favor.

Far too late. After that Belmont scare, there was no way Duke was going too lose this game. Mr. Hightower and friends achieved that once WV got all the momentum sucked out of them.

Paulus is a bitch.

I LOVED seeing Paulus knocked on his butt. No way that was a foul. Calls like that are why people hate Duke. (Not that there aren't a lot more reasons.)

BTW I'm still convinced Paulus wears makeup to make it look like he's had a black eye all year.

Eddie doing a nice job keeping WVU from completely stealing the momentum in this game.

So many fouls being called, neither team can get in a groove.

Boy is WVU rockin' it right now. They keep this up, Hightower will be powerless to stop it.

WVU playing against Duke and Hightower, but still keep coming at them.

The Dukies have had their problems with the Big East this year.  Loosing to PITT, beating us by 4, and currently losing to WV.

Someone on Duke just laid out a WV player.  The Dukies are panicing!  Down 8 with under 8 to go!

Paulus was the National Player of the Year coming out of high school as a QB. You'd think he could take a hit better...

There still a minute left, but barring the impossible West Virigina has it locked up being up 11.

That's Big East 2. ACC 0 in the tournament.

Coach Huggins and crew realy helping me out, as I had Arizona beating Duke in my pool. I know you are all happy to hear about my good fortune.

Henderson really likes using that forearm.

Good to see him get run over at the end of the game by that WVU player after Henderson pushed him in the back.
