That was me - and I still hold to it as I don't think one big win makes a season. They won't be an easy beat, but Duke will prevail.

I only saw the last 50 seconds, when I looked earlier they were down by 10. I wish they had been able to pull it out.

I thanked the Purdue fans at Johnny's Tavern for beating TAMU so we don't have to play them in Houston.

Look at the level of the teams Kentucky has played this year:
http://kenpom.com/team.php?team=Kentucky

They've never seen a defense like ours. The best D they played against, I think, is Tenn. at #7. And they did lose to them once. I think we can give them fits and force them into freshman mistakes.

I'm pulling for Cornell to knock them out.

Here are the family alma maters that entered the tournament: Duke, KU, GA Tech, Maryland, & Cornell. Before the first game tipped, if I was asked to pick 2 of those to advance to the Sweet 16, Cornell would not have been on the list. Go Big Red! :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard:

I had less than zero interest in the game so I had lights out about 1130 PM. Now tonight will be a different story. I hope. :ymdevil: :ymdevil:

Maybe the double OT wore down KSU so that they will lose to Butler. And if THAT happens, I might win the Boon Nation Bracket Challenge...

UNLESS EARLJAM'S KENTUCKY WINS IT ALL!! :-w :-w
