They couldn't of gotten luckier.. Reddish out, Jones injured, Jack white goes like 0-11 from 3. However, makes our win better?

Refs did everything they could to take that from the Orange. Chukwu and Battle huge, Hughes too. Jones blew his shoulder out I think. Jay Bilas is no longer likable it’s painful listening to him about Duke. Never been so damn happy for an Orange win love it.

Agree, but in general the refs let both get away with wayyy more physical play than anything we’ve seen in the American conference. Bodies were flying everywhere and it was awesome. it was much more entertaining basketball than what our refs put us through

Duke was undermanned but K should play more of his guys rather than love blowing people out leaving starters in - his bench has zero punch
But a win is a win and a good win for Cuse
Don't think it sheds any light or darkness on UConn
If it was anyone but Cuse the selection committee would be saying that the W was tainted due to Duke's injuries but in reality if Cuse is breathing above .500 they will get in the dance
Pure BS

Big call though when no one touched Zion but they called it when he threw a brick allowed Duke to get to OT. But overall youre right they let them hammer each other a lot. Was fun to watch also fun to listen to Bilas talk about them being a great defensive team while the Orange players were scoring at will. Lol

Or Bilas calling Duke courageous - what the hell were they supposed to do, cancel the game?

Couldn't agree more. I thought I was watching the Cincinnati ref crew all over again. I was actually happy Cuse won this game. Lol

Duke dominated while Tyus Jones' brother was out there. He had 4 steals in 5 minutes. Cuse really caught a break with his injury. Duke better hope Jones can come back this season.

On a lighter note, a Syracuse fan on Reddit said he'd eat a tube of toothpaste if Syracuse won this game. He delivered.

Seems a little low to make fun of an old man for incontinence. Piss happens.

The one time I met Boeheim, and the other I saw him present, he was a jerk. He's also a cheater with less national championships than Tyler Olander. No longer very good at his job... well, except for this game. Let's leave the criticism there.
...and he's a nosepicker.

That had potential, until it was clear he was digging it. Dude looks like he might do that often anyway...

Coach K said it was a shoulder sprain.

Dominated? They were never up more than 4-5 at any point in the game and Jones is overrated anyway. He plays good D but other than that he’s a decent PG surrounded by studs. Their problem is he’s the only true PG if he’s really hurt they’re in trouble. Good win no matter even the kid O’Connell made some plays and shots for Duke, they beat’em at their place.

Did you watch the beginning of the game before he got hurt? They were up 11 - 0 at one point.

Edit: 14 - 6 when he got hurt
