I won’t be able to function if Duke beat UConn in the final!

If we play the Duke I just watched, we’re winning by 20+.

lol Trey Alexander

Trey Alexander on that lay-up miss....oof

 

[WestCoastHusky]

Creighton got robbed by the refs. However, Alexander played one of the worst games we have ever seen. He was so bad tonight, and it is hard to imagine it is the same player we been seeing all year.

 

[WestCoastHusky]

Like always, it is up to UCONN to carry the conference banner.

Duke's guards look shaky tonight. They may be too green. But their frontcourt is legit. Filo, Mitchell and Young is a bruiser.

I wanted to see Houston get knocked out, but not like that and certainly not to Duke. This is shaping up to be a craptastic night.

Craptastic is one way to put it. I didn't really care who won between Creighton or Tennessee, but the other three games the team I was pulling for lost : (

duke's path to the final four:

#13 Vermont > #12 James Madison > #1 houston (down to 7 rotation players and missing PG/best player) > #11 NC St

the seeds add up to 37

NC State beat them in the ACC tourney hope they can do it again

Miffed at why McDermott didn’t do more in portal to fill out his starting 5 and bench. Their 5th spot is basically a dead void, the bench is rancid. In key spots, they only have two dependable guys you can go to. Just bad roster building when you have 2 core guys to build around in Kalk and Scheirman.

lol Trey Alexander

When he plays poorly Creighton almost always loses

Hey bud, you seem lost. How about you join your other lil bearcat buddies fawn over the Huskies on your own message board? Uconn

It seems like Creighton very rarely has a bench.

Joke all you want, the major college betting/point shaving scandal is on the horizon, only question is who's involved.

The Illuminati! And the Bohemian Grove! Both involved.

Mitchell has been trash most of this month. He and Young were bad today.

I wanted Creighton to keep the BE represented as much as possible and to see how they'd do against Purdue, but Tennessee is going to be a challenge for Purdue regardless.

 

[Scoe]

Now Creighton hitting 3s get outta here.

 

[AllHusky]

Knecht shoots 3’s like they are layups

 

[gsmooth]

Oof what a tough night for Alexander

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Painter vs. Barnes

A great battle of coaches that crap their pants in the tournament.

 

[NC_Uconn_Fan]

I'd rather face Duke than Perdue in the final...if we get there.

 

[HCCForever]

Tough night for Big East fans and haters of Duke like myself. It couldn't have gotten much worse.

 

[Ripper32]

I'd rather face Duke than Perdue in the final...if we get there.

Possibly. It's a question of how many fouls we can utilize against the behemoth. Maybe even deploy Singare early?

 

[Gurleyman]

I feel like Houston’s strategy was to not run any plays so they could save them all and surprise NC State with them. Backfired.

lol. Singare would foul out in two possessions against Edey.
