UNCA in a tight one. Going down to the wire. Under a minute. 3 point game.

Both of my parents were born and raised in Asheville, and I am currently snuggling on the couch with a bulldog and watching this game.
So I second the above.
Great game...heck of a way to kick things off!

Not quite.

You can
TALK

but
can you
PLAY
the game?

(back)
DUKE


WE CAN PLAY

I have the shirt in my lap right now. It is frayed and has several small holes in it. I won't ever wear it again as it might fall apart. But, I will ALWAYS have it in my Duke t-shirt drawer. If I had any more computer sense, I'd make a photo and post it her AND OY on the jalen rose/flop 5 thread. Nice that they make a documentary about losers and disgraces.

Going out on a limb there picking the #1 seeds to advance. Of course, I don't know that all 4 #1 seeds have ever advanced to the Final Four.

It happened for the first time ever in 2008: Memphis, Kansas, UCLA, and carolina. That's still the only time it's happened.

Going on record with my official prediction before the Madness begins:

Syracuse, Duke, Kansas and Wisconsin make the Final Four with Duke beating Kansas 81-76 in the Championship Game. University of Washington will eliminate Carolina in the R32.

Clemson looks pretty good again so far...up nine late in the first half.
The WVU guys are wearing really silly-looking shoes. They look like they put on blue and white shoes, then slipped banana peels over the toes.
