An impressive double for Carolina - spoiling K’s final game at Cameron and then putting him out to pasture for good.

So good. Carolina can hold this over Duke for literally eternity. Would’ve been better to have lost to Arkansas.

I haven’t looked in the last couple weeks, but I wasn’t seeing Caleb Love in any mock drafts. I’d absolutely use a late first round pick on him.

Wow. That's surprising.  I would have thought he was a potential lottery pick..but I've only watched him play in the NCAA. Kid is a stud.  RJ Davis too.  Think Wojo was runner up for Davis.  If Bacot's ankle is good for Monday night, I like Carolina.  That starting 5 is amazing.

Duke burning their time-outs didn't help them.

Talk about bragging rights. Wow.

Rooted for Carolina the entire game. Feel like I need to take a shower and go to Confession ASAP.

I think you’re right. Generally considered a mid second pick, but may well have played himself into the 1st round.

Games like this are the reason it’s better for teams like Saint Peter’s to get knocked off before the Final Four.  What a terrific, high level game that was and will hopefully be another good one on Monday.

Delighted to see UNC win and looking forward to seeing them beat the JayHawks. Hubert Davis is a quality guy.

Also pleased to see Duke lose to their hated rival

Loved the Davis boys when they played at UNC. Walter was one of my all time faves.

After the thrashing Kansas gave Marquette in the 2003 semi-finals, I could never root for Kansas.
Isn't there some type of moral victory for Marquette to say we lost to the NCAA champions if UNC wins?

No.  But Carolina obviously under achieved during the reg season.

Feel the same way about North Carolina because of the Sean May offensive foul bonanza in 2005.

This sucks. I can only think of one worse final than this and that would be Notre Dame vs. Wisconsin.

Is there a camera on Coach K's car?  I really hope they show him leaving the arena.

Hah, after all the arena entrance theater, that would be appropriate.

I can’t stand either Kansas or North Carolina. I hope the roof caves in while no one is inside so no one can win on Monday.
