Hate that Shead got hurt. Definitely helped Duke’s chances. Still think Duke would’ve been right there given that they had weathered the early storm. But that’s a gut punch for Houston.

Proud of this Duke squad. I said in the first half of the Vermont game that I was ready for the season to be done, and I meant it. But they’ve flipped a switch since then. Hope they can keep it rolling against NC State… that’s weird to say.

I didn't think they would get out of the first weekend. They were physical tonight and I don't feel like we've seen that this season.

Ryan Young was big for them in that dept tonite. He got his money’s worth by fouling out. Gotta punch back at a team like Houston. I think they’re finally tired of being called soft.

Really proud of Roach and Ryan Young tonight . Both stepped up in different ways . Young stepped up in Mitchell’s absents (checks notes) actually Mitchell did participate by being on the basketball court, but that’s the only way.

State is losing on Sunday .

I was saying in January that UConn was by far the best team in the nation. At this point, it’s looking like the UConn invitational tournament. They’re absolutely dismantling Illinois.

I hate to say it,but I'm watching Clemson and Alabama and all I can think is they're both playing to put a banner up at this point( first Final Four banner) There's nothing wrong with that,but I feel this game is both teams championship.

I feel that way on the other end as well although I hope Tennessee pulls it off tomorrow.

UConn has outscored their opponents in the paint 198-80 through their Elite 8 game in the NCAA tournament.

With 3.5 minutes left to play in their game today, they had outscored Illinois 32-2 in the paint in the second half.

State’s fun little story began w/ Duke a few weeks ago. It’s gonna end w/ Duke too.

If I’m wrong, I’ll be here to eat my crow …

Early congrats on getting screwed by the officials in the FF.

Agenda was and is set for UCONN/Purdue. They won’t change that now.

Has there been a single UT basketball loss the entire season without the fanbase blaming the loss on the refs? I don't recall one.

I don’t go into the bball forum, but the treatment Edey gets warrants it. It’s absurd
