 @Crimsonorblue22 they are the presumptive favorites. I wonder how much compensation at Duke for freshman talent, if one could quantify value of all the perks, stacks up at Duke compared to other institutions. 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 @approxinfinity probably not. 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 Duke’s probably one of the best put together teams we’ve seen in a minute man. Positional size, shooting, multiple handlers and athleticism…

 Makes the win with Malik, Svi, dtae… team even sweeter. Take those guys over the perfect dukies. Our guys were super fun!

 @TYOHawk they’re almost always perfect, don’t think they have to recruit to hard. Do you?

 UH is putting on a defensive clinic against Tennessee right now. Vols only had 15 points at halftime and are 20 points 5 minutes into the 2nd half.

 @Texas-Hawk-10 win in a blowout without shooting very well. Defensive clinic indeed.

 Houston by 19 over Tennessee to advance to their 7th Final Four. Three of the four 1 seeds have advanced to the Final Four so far with Auburn’s shot coming up next to make it 4 of 4.

 IMHO Michigan St. could do us all a favor and knock off Auburn today giving us only one SEC team in the FF. Had TTech known how to make FT’s and a MSU win SEC could’ve been shut out and the Big12 had two! But pulling for Sparty, although i like Pearl, thinking he’s changed quite a bit and is a fun coach to watch and listen to, more of a Valvano type now.

In my bracket that I was trying and not making homer or AI animal picks, I got 6 of the 8 Elite 8 team right amd so far am 3 for 3 on Final Four picks with Sparty over Auburn in the 4th game.

 @Texas-Hawk-10 Yeah my bracket was looking good for the FF until TTech choked. I think I picked for someone over Duke based on the fact that our worst team ever beat Duke! 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 @wissox I actually have Duke winning in that bracket.

 Reminding me of my college days working as a bricklayer.

 Actually the Big Twelve should have two teams representing the league in the final four. Tex Tech had it and let it get away

 Johnny Broome is so badass 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 @Jhawk69 I agree. Here’s what bugs me about officiating though. The play he rolled his ankle should have been a foul. Here’s my logic. A 3 point shooter goes up and lands on a defenders foot and its a shooting foul. That play today Broome landed on the layup shooters foot who falls as does broome and it’s out of bounds to Auburn. I didn’t see that much of the game. As state above, I’m not too heartbroken Auburn won.

 Can you guess which two big 8 teams are on the list? I’ll give you the first one KU. lol

 Refs are screwing over Florida

 Florida is just so tough and well coached

 @FarmerJayhawk said in NCAA Tournament Discussion: Florida is just so tough and well coached Both are. A LOT of talent and athleticism in this game…

 Well really happy for Florida, anybody but Pearl

 I’ll take Walter!

 Step back shots dont seem to be a winning solution eveey possession for Houston 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 Maybe I’m just biased against Duke, but I see fouls that aren’t fouls being called against Houston and fouls that aren’t being called against Duke. Duke is really good, but they don’t need help. 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 Out of bounds calls too. 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 We beat both these teams, well should have beaten both of these teams. Took the worst meltdown in memory to prevent it. Hard to believe.

 @wissox Duke is owned by the Trump foundation. The trophy is already engraved. That may or may not be true. But it feels true.

 @nuleafjhawk Duke is a beautiful place. Strolled their gardens this summer. Snuck into their 2nd best basketball arena. Amazing how much I hate them! My grandma also passed at Duke hospital so it actually is a place with a lot of meaning to me.

 That dunk by the Florida kid, was downright filthy and disgusting and if a Duke kid had done it he’d already be immortalized in Springfield or wherever they immortalize mere mortals these days…

 Duke reaches in and holds a lot.

 Wow D up!

 Surprised they called it

 Love it! Poor espn!

 Bye bye Duke!! (pitiful to have to cheer on someones demise, but it’s all we got!)

 Duke got beat by 2 big 12 teams 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 I didnt mind rooting for Houston at the same time. 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 I respect the hell out of Sampson

 @FarmerJayhawk I like him better when he doesn’t talk.

 Kansas mentioned!  ️ ️

 If they can pull it off it’s titles for the league in 3 of the last 5 tournaments.

 I just read an article on Golden, how on earth is he still employed? 
 
- 
					
					
					
					
 Dam I feel so bad for that Duke team – and Mr do it everything. – LJ saying they had a game like this against KU , and Calvin giving the Big Twelve- saying shout out to all his Big Twelve Brothern – A Big 12 team playing for the Title & not fricken Duke.— Gotta love it. Another case where all these 5 Stars and player of the year falling short
