Did anyone watch the game today? Damn that was an awesome game. I despise Duke and hold UNC in regard only a little higher, but I love watching these two teams go at it. What a comeback by UNC. Unless Wisconsin pulls something out of their ass I'll be hoping for an Illinois vs. UNC final this year.

I like Duke quite a bit, its a loss, but it was a great game.

NC is tough this year, especially May.

May is having a monster year. He had a great game today. If Reddick doesn't have such a bad second half Duke wins easily. I mean they should have won as it was. That other guy was lighting it up for Duke though so I guess it was a wash.

Billy Packer had it right though when Duke was up by 9 they had to find a way to get the ball in Reddick's hand to get him to the line.

good game today. may is a monster on the low post

Williams is pretty damn good for Duke, but it was impressive how May did with him one on one.

Usually, Williams is double-teamed.

play without your leading scorer... spot the opposition a 9 point lead inside the 3-minute mark... and come away with a W by going on an 11 point run to end the game...

nice win for roy and the boys... 9 to go

im sure haveing nelson in there wasnt that big of a loss to duke either

best scorer in the country vs. demarcus who?... come on peeps...

i will agree that it probably hurt duke more in this game for duke to be without nelson than carolina and mccants, but that's only because carolina's bench is loaded... but talent-wise they're not even in the same ballpark

actually i meant relying on nelson, who is a freshman, instead of dockery, their regular pg

Both teams are the end-all, be-all of college basketball in the end-all, be-all conference . . .

Oh, wait, I was dreaming of Dick Vitale again.

chris... i hate to be the one to break this to you... but.....

it's not a dream...

*transitions into vitale voice*

IT'S COLLEGE HOOPS BABY!

Is there an emoticon for a person vomiting?

just know you're not the only one who can't stand listening to vitale spit out his love for every one on every team in every conference in college basketball...

myself, im a fan of packer and raftery

I was trying to figure out why when UNC won that they were saying this is some sort of shocker. UNC is #2 and Duke is #6 so I would expect UNC to win.

maybe because unc was down 9 points w/ less than two minutes. but unc should have won that game: at home, duke big men in foul trouble

lunkin's right... the shocker was the fact that carolina trailed 73-64 with under 3 minutes to play... when is the last time duke blew a lead that big with that little of time left?... it's probably been a while... watching the game, i never thought the tarheels were going to lose, couldnt fathom it after what this group of seniors had been through (the 8-20 bunch)... but at 73-64 i definitely began to think the unthinkable... duke was on a 9-0 run at that point... and carolina comes on with a 11-0 run to end the game... just an incredible and "shocking" comeback... besides, by the time carolina's game began kansas, illinois, and kentucky had lost, so i think everyone kinda thought we'd see another upset... not with roy at the helm

You sound as if the guy has 4 or 5 NCAA Championships under his belt.

i think i'll go ahead and quote the greatest coach in college basketball history (at least one of the top 2 or 3 if it pleases you) dean smith...

after winning it all in 1982 he made the comment that he was no better a coach after the game than he was just hours ago before the game...

roy is where he should be now... and he'll get one soon... even if they somehow come up short this year, the recruiting is back to the days of old and they will be loaded for years and years to come... (for now, see: Tyler Hansborough... can anyone say a white version of Marvin Williams?)

There's this guy from UCLA...
Smith can be top 3, but never #1.
