Chamique Holdsclaw is a guest on the Duke-Syracuse broadcast. She's visiting Duke to talk about mental health awareness. Good to see her.

And this is why Notre Dame will Never. Ever. Ever. occupy the same caliber as UConn. They can't bear the burden of being the top dog.

well they wont have to worry about that much longer.

With Tenn. big win against LSU today, and another big win against Florida next, shouldn't that be enough to put them back in the top ten?

 

[Plebe]

They were up the whole game.... 54-47 with about 2 minutes and 30 seconds left.... ended up losing 56-54. They didnt score the last 5 minutes of the game. Emery missed two go ahead jumpers with under 15 seconds to go. Baby Mabrey missed a 3 that would have won the game in the dying seconds.

Whoa. VT seems cursed. They also coughed up a huge lead against Virginia.

 

[nwhoopfan]

10-2 run for Wazzu. 43-33. First to 48 wins. 5:58 left. This game is putrid. OSU was 2-16 behind the arc after a 8-13 start on Friday, 4-16 today. So much for being the best 3 point shooting team in the country.

 

[Beemer]

Virginia is now making a game of it= Wake Forest's lead has been cut to 6, 8:50 left 4th quarter

 

[Jmsdawg]

While it's nice to see other teams as vulnerable, I've been really hoping UConn could enter the tourney not at #1. Nice to be the hunter instead of the hunted for a change.

Surely you are not serious, UCONN NOT A NUMBER 1 seed!

 

[buddy]

Any time ND loses it is a wonderful day!

 

[Orangutan]

Surely you are not serious, UCONN NOT A NUMBER 1 seed!

Think he was referring to #1 overall.

 

[HuskyNan]

Surely you are not serious, UCONN NOT A NUMBER 1 seed!

I think he’s talking about the rankings not the seeding

 

[nwhoopfan]

52-35 Oregon St. under a minute left. This one was a stinker. Pivec was great w/ 19 points 9 rebounds 9-12 shooting. The rest of the team was sleep walking. They did manage to fairly much shut down Bobbi Buckets though.

 

[Plebe]

Illinois has had a disastrous 4th quarter vs. Northwestern to spoil their chance at a 2nd Big Ten win.
After leading by 11 with 1:00 left in 3Q, they went scoreless for about 8:30 and have been outscored 19-4 in 4Q.
Nancy Fahey has a long way to go with this program.

UVA is bad..... didnt they make the tournament last year? Or was that 2017

 

[Beemer]

Wake Forests holds on to win 52-42 for their first ACC win of the year. Virginia is now 8-12 on the year

 

[Beemer]

UVA is bad..... didnt they make the tournament last year? Or was that 2017

They mounted a decent comeback at one point WF was up by 16 & threatening to really blow it out

Last year. Beat Cal in the 1st round and then lost to South Carolina.

 

[Blueberries]

While it's nice to see other teams as vulnerable, I've been really hoping UConn could enter the tourney not at #1. Nice to be the hunter instead of the hunted for a change.

I don't think we will go in as #1. I am guessing that's still Baylor.... no one seems to think UConn as top dog this year and I'm good with that mindset.

It wasnt that long ago that Uva was good.

 

[Vowelguy]

If UConn wins out and Baylor loses a game, UConn will be #1.

 

[Vowelguy]

UVA is bad.....

True. And yet they beat Pitt by 17.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Looks like Arizona St. will survive. Up 64-56 w/ 44 seconds left. USC will drop to 1-7 in conference. Wow, they seem like a better team than that. Pac 12 is fairly brutal.

 

[triaddukefan]

It wasnt that long ago that Uva was good.

They have the ingredients to be a top Tier ACC team. Fertile recruiting area, Top notch academic school... beautiful campus in a great town, nice modern arena to play in.

 

[HuskyNan]

True. And yet they beat Pitt by 17.

A pickup team from the rec could beat Pitt by 17
