Holy ****
Duke to final four crazy
Nah NC State could get em
**** off Houston, you had one job
Duke/state rd 3 in Dallas is not what I expected when I filled out my bracket
I hate everything
Just realized Purdue Duke happens a lot
Sampson deserves better.
So we're left with two "Who gives a ****?" Games, one Rapist vs Goliath match up, and one truly awesome matchup between two teams who want it more than anybody.
So Redd, as a newfound diehard Purdue fan for at least the next 48 hours what do I need to know?
BOILER UP!
PurDUE!
Good stuff, gents
That Rick Barnes I can't get a handle on. He never seems to be doing anything over there, always blank faced. Reminds me of Larry Brown like that, so I guess maybe he's a helluva coach.
I hate the way Jon Scheyer talks. Douche
major conferences post-season records thru 3/29
(including NIT games)
ACC: 14-5, 0.737
P12: 9-4, 0.692
BIG: 12-7, 0.632
SEC: 10-7, 0.588
BE: 9-7, 0.563
MWC: 6-7, 0.462
B12: 9-11, 0.450
His best result is a Final Four in like 40 years of coaching right? Seems like a guy that's going to win a lot of basketball games but high ceiling with title equity isn't really in his range. Haven't paid much attention to his sets but Knecht middy jumpers isn't where you want to live even though he can hit them sometimes.
38% of the E8 are ACC teams (and it would be half the teams had RJ not had his worst shooting performance of the season)
how much longer can the conference keep getting away w this during cbb's most important month?
Illinois Bama nc State purdue
UConn, Bama, dook, Purdue
UConn, Clemson, Duke, Tennessee
Alabamas terrible defense should make that game incredibly entertaining
