Duke's liable to steamroll a bunch of teams, as much as it pains me to say that. Tennessee's been in a funk for a couple of months now.If Duke doesn't steamroll Tennessee on Saturday I will Funk Master Flex my self
I was rooting for FDU, but I did question some of those calls. I also seriously questioned some of the last minute plays, or non plays, by Purdue. If memory serves, there was a point where, down 5 with less than 30 seconds, one of the guards passed up a chance for an open 3 and drove to the hole? That decision seemed... less than optimal.FDU out-hustled them and seemed to get every loose ball. Don't wanna hear about the refs, either. Painter was right in his post-game comments when he said they got outplayed and outcoached.
As knuckle-headed as Steve Lappas can be, he rightly pointed out that Gillen (sp?) looked like he was afraid to shoot. Then it seemed to trickle down to the others. The one kid kept shooting (and missing), but the rest curled up into the fetal position.I was rooting for FDU, but I did question some of those calls.

still now?I have a terrible feeling that Duke is going to win this whole thing.

Duke is doneYep.still now?I have a terrible feeling that Duke is going to win this whole thing.
You may not understand my mindset. I follow Maryland and have seen this show more than once. They're gonna pull this one out and the bracket will open for them wider than the Red Sea opened for Moses.

ya that was a little embarassingWhat in the hell is Musselman doing?

2018 we lost virginia round 1 and xavier round 2, so same as this yaerlooking nowWhat's the earliest we've lost two 1 seeds before?
84, 2000, 2004 also lost 2 in the 2nd round.2018 we lost virginia round 1 and xavier round 2, so same as this yaerlooking nowWhat's the earliest we've lost two 1 seeds before?
But if we lose Houston then this must be the earliest we've ever lost 3.What's the earliest we've lost two 1 seeds before?
Has there ever been a final four without a 1 seed? How about an elite 8?
He does that a lotWhat in the hell is Musselman doing?
It was so cringyHe does that a lotWhat in the hell is Musselman doing?
Brutal. Not having Mitchell available killed them. Read that they were 18-0 this year when all 5 starters played and 8-8 when missing one or moreUpdate?If Duke doesn't steamroll Tennessee on Saturday I will Funk Master Flex my self
FDU isn’t a great team but I’m not sure this is true - Purdue looked so slow in comparison - I think they’re built to do well in the perennial over-rated B1G - but they’ve now been exposed two years in a row playing quick hustle based teams.Purdue beats that team badly 99/100 times. FDU isn't some sleeping giant.

Edey is so crazy slow and stiff - his size is easily negated by quicker more athletic players.
It’s not at all. I was a bit unfair. He carried them all season. At the end of the game when they were swarming him (because of poor team shooting) he turned the ball over and was blocked a few times. I was letting the end of game influence me too much.FDU isn’t a great team but I’m not sure this is true - Purdue looked so slow in comparison - I think they’re built to do well in the perennial over-rated B1G - but they’ve now been exposed two years in a row playing quick hustle based teams.Purdue beats that team badly 99/100 times.

Edey had 21 and 15 on 7-11 shooting. Not really his fault Purdue lost. They lost because they went 5-26 from three and their freshmen guards had 10 turnovers.

When I was referring to speed, I meant the whole tram really. FDU made them look so slow.
I actually picked Purdue to win it after watching a lot of the B1G Tournament so maybe I’m just bitter about my stupidity.
