I hope NC State can regain its shooting touch; the team hasn't shot as high as 45% for a game since February 18th against Georgia Tech. Yesterday was a brickfest on Kay Yow Court from both teams. If State can't make some shots, NC State's 39-year win streak at home in the NCAAT could be in jeopardy against a Tennessee team that appears to be peaking.

I don't see how Duke becomes an elite program again without upgrades at PG and C and WNBA players. Ohio State doesn't have talent at PG or C, but they have two WNBA players (Sheldon and McMahon). That's the difference right now.

Mair is a nice kid, but she's not a Harding/J.Thomas/C.Gray type. That's what is needed for this program to go to the next level.

If the refs allow McMahon to bully her way through and over OSU’s opponent they are a different challenge. She’s gotten a favorable whistle today. Curious to see whether, should they win today, that continues.

Duke with the 2-point lead at the final media timeout of regulation.

We're all wearing Royal Blue in ACC country right now.

Has South Carolina been playing possum for the last several weeks? The Heels are probably thinking so right about now.

Ohio State dominated the first 15 minutes of this game but it's been all Duke since then, just completely flipped the script. Taylor fouled out early and Richardson is on fire. Duke's defense is fantastic and they're looking like a sweet 16 team.

What culinary delights are about to be consumed in a celebratory fashion in Carolina?

Really remarkable performance by Duke. Outscored Ohio State 52-27 in the last 22 minutes of the game.

Ohio State lost their last 3 games of the season: by 10 to Iowa, by 21 to Maryland, and by 12 to Duke.

The weirdness of the world….

Dorka Juhasz transfers from OhioSt … loses to OSU in the tournament

Celeste Taylor transfers from Duke … loses to Duke in tournament
So is the moral of the story don't transfer?

Too bad Louisville ended the season in such a funk so they couldn't have kept it going w/ Hailey Van Lith and LSU.

Leftover pizza, a rib, half a brownie, and some Simply Green Chewables (gotta have my veggies)

For at least one poster, it will be an overdose of Cheerwine.

No Cheerwine, got a Ice Cold Cherry Coke that will be calling my name in a few minutes.

Recruits, pay attention!!!!! Duke to the S16 while UNC gets embarrassed on national TV by the 'Cocks.

Gotta love it! :D

That's...something anyway.

I'm a little worried you're gonna be too happy today, what with Duke's big comeback and that other nearby team getting absolutely curb stomped.

The Big 10 going 4-3 was the worst P5 record in the first round.
Not surprised. The B1G is, for now, the worst of the five power conferences. Part of that has to do with injuries to key players. Two teams that I felt could've been in the Big Dance (Minnesota and Penn State) suffered key injuries while two teams that I felt could've easily have been left out of the field if not for late-season pushes (Maryland and Michigan) were among those teams who lost in the first round. Also, Ohio State just embarrassed themselves for all to see. Iowa might be the only B1G team to survive to the next weekend, and I'm not sure if they'll make it out of their bracket.

We should see something different next season when UCLA and USCw join the conference. Hopefully Washington picks up their level of play as well.

Celeste has to be one of the unluckiest relatively healthy players in recent memory. So much hype for a McDonald's AA with so little to show for it. It'll be interesting to see where her journey leads her next.

Mulkey's outfit literally looks like she stole a clown suit and tailored it into a pants suit.
Maybe she's hoping she can distract everybody from the supposed expose coming out if her outfit is outlandish enough!
