Two bad calls in a row against Duke.

Agree. Weird.

[GGGG]

Two bad calls in a row against Duke.

Kennard completely reached around him. That was a good call.

[forgetful]

After torching MU for 93 on Friday, SC has 23 points in 19 minutes against Duke. Amazing how much size and athleticism matter.

And that Duke team has now given up 65 2nd half points to that team.

Edited for final score.

[chapman]

Hmm.. maybe (and the board was mostly good about not overreacting) our loss on Friday wasn't all Wojo's fault?

Wojo and K probably caught up for three minutes on Thursday.  Enough time for Wojo's mind games to set in; they're so powerful they even affect his mentor.

Is it wrong that this is upsetting because it makes the path easier for Wisconsin?

They are the luckiest damn team, I swear.

It's actually a little funny to watch the UNC fans going nuts along with the USC fans.

[marquette09]

Maybe the will move the regional to Charleston South Carolina to accommodate the 7 seed cocks?

[wadesworld]

We had 3-point shooters. We did not have the athletes to compete against SC. Hopefully we will next year.

Don't look now, but SC is dangerously close to equalling those 90+ points on those superior Duke athletes.

[wadesworld]

K will be going on a rant post -game about the home crowd for USC.

As he should.

The ACC, you know, the greatest conference ever, has 1 team left in the tournament and it took a late rally from UNC. Wonder if that weasel mike decourcy comes out with an acc hit piece tonight.

[Norm]

Wisconsin still has to get past Florida, which is not a good match up for UW. Baylor and USC will be tough matchups too.

I'm not sure I'd want to face SC eventually, if I'm Bucky. They look absolutely dirty...

[GoldenDieners32]

SC has peaked at the right time

They were up to #7 in the nation at one point for a reason. They'll shut Becky down.

[Herman Cain]

Sindarius Thornwell is a great example of the value of having a good neck. He is able to keep his head held up strong and  take the ball through traffic with that strong core that he has developed.  Having that steady head against MU and Duke has landed the 'Cocks into the Sweet 16.

[Silkk the Shaka]

No.

We'll see how their act plays on Broadway.

[manny31]

That has nothing to do with the no call today.

Big tangent here but is that the truth? What ever happened with the investigation?

[wadesworld]

Respect the process. Becky is a good team who is riding high, despite some people claiming they have choked down the stretch. Any of the 4 teams left could make it to Phoenix.

[GoldenDieners32]

Everyone remember SC was playing a home game

Kevin Garnett says neck no matta.

Duke supporters had 2 extra hours to travel. It's not like they were playing Kansas in KC.

Duke gets to play in Greensboro or Chatlotte almost every year, they're the last fans who should be complaining. It would have been the same this year if not for Governor McCrory and HB2.

And why are my fellow Golden Eagles sticking up for Duke???

No, clearly it was Coach K's fault we lost. He failed to teach Wojo how to beat a team like SC because he didn't know how.
