Between the refs calling touch fouls on NC St, Duke's press, and Duke nailing the 3's, I thought for sure a comeback was in order.

Well done NC State!

FUCK DUKE!!!!

NC State just turned my $1 into $15!! Jumped in early on NC State to win the region at +1400. Would've too for 'bama but I couldn't pull the trigger. Also bonus that Duke doesn't go to the FF. Win all around, other than f'ing NC State getting to a FF before us.

How improbable is it that NC State is in the Final Four? They needed a missed free throw and then have O'Connell bank in a 3-point prayer to force overtime in the ACC semifinals to keep any hopes of making it to the NCAA tournament.

UConn/Bama will be interesting because the Tide is an excellent 3-point shooting team, and UConn is not.

Purdue will demolish NC State.

UConn/Purdue is the game that we've been building towards all season, and it should be a great one.

Too bad for the Dukies! They were set up to duplicate Arizona's three-victories over #1 seeds in a single tourney.

They beat #1 Houston, and had #1 Purdue and #1 UConn lined up had they made it to the Final Four.

Such a shame!

(Recall, Arizona faltered against Providence in the EE - Won in OT 96-92 - after beating KU in the S16)

Not even God could stop us from winning that Natty. Now mere mortals like Walker, Kaminsky, Dekker, Blueitt, Hall, and Hunter stop us.

I don't have a problem, yet. But there is a half to go. If you are going to let them play, let them play. Just keep it consistent.

If Purdue shoots 3s against UConn the way they did against us, they can beat the Huskies.

I wasn’t complaining about the refs. It was nice to watch a game without constant whistles. Seemed like they let a lot of the hand jabs at the ball go whereas the pac 12 guys would have been calling reach in fouls all day.

This game is entertaining so far, looks like UCONN might be turning it up!

While it’s cool to have the final fours in these huge locations… the sight lines have to be absolutely awful to watch in person. Some of these camera shots it looks like you couldn’t even see the court!
