Both teams are taking huge punches and keep coming back. These teams look like equals and you can tell they are coached by arguably the two best.
 
Could be a great one unless all duke's players foul out.
 
It's rare that there's a championship where I like both teams.


I'm rooting for Wisconsin. Mainly, because they've had a heckuva road to get here. Beat Kentucky and Arizona. I like Bo Ryan and they seem to have a good bunch of kids who are very tight.

I don't get the national hate for Duke. I've got no problem with Coach K or how he runs his program. They've won a lot already. That's really the only reason I'm rooting for Wisconsin.
 
If you look at what K has accomplished in this era then look at the era that Wooden accomplished all his titles and the roads to get to them I think it's fair to say that maybe coach K is right there.

I used to hate Duke also but now I find them almost impossible to hate. Definitely not rooting for them here tonight. It's crazy to think that Bo is 67 and coach K is 68. They both act like they are in their 30's still energy wise.
 
I Think Wiscy Played The Highest Possible Bracket Seed 6 Straight Games! *

Agree...I like both coaches and both programs. I like Wiscy because they have seniors and juniors. I'm not a big fan of the one and done. But either one winning is fine with me.
 
Wooden & UCLA Had Much Shorter & Easier Roads In "Those" Days!


For years it was only 16 teams or 32 teams.....and for many years UCLA only had to get by Long Beach State Or UNLV to get to the Final Four as in the early games teams stayed in their respective region.

They had some great teams.....but as Kentucky showed Sat night, great teams don't always win it.
 
Sorta Cool - Three Of Wiscy's Five Starters Went To HS In WI!


The other two, from IL and OH!

Winslow apparently could have been driving a bulldozer down the court and it wouldn't have changed that call. I guess the officials realized they needed to even things up because Wisconsin has bout 70 fouls called on them this half, 1/3 legitimate.
 
I want both teams to lose (i.e. literally zero rooting interest), and....

...have only watched the last 3-5 minutes, but Duke has gotten about three no-calls in this short amount of time. Has it been like that the whole game?

I hate the B1G (which includes Wisky) as much as I hate Duke, so it's not like I'm watching with biased eyes.
 
u make it sound like the refs know something... lol

like jeepers, we can't have both okie and winslow out at the same time. why... that's just not fair. rolling stone was poised and ready to write about it.

and the dookettes know they can pretty much do any damned thing they want and it ain't getting called.\

wow.. where have i seen that before?
 
The last ten minutes of this game, just wow. Never seen every call go against one team on a stage like this. Even the undebatable ones for Wisconsin are going Duke's way.
 
Replay is just so much shite. Why bother?

Total disregard of evidence which negates live action calls....ignored again and again and again. All sports. What are we even doing? Or trying to do?
 
can do whatever they want and they know it..

...and so does wisky

in the end, not calling the ez 4th on winslow changed the game (not taking away from what the rest of the duke kids did.. but that was huge at that point). if wisky finds a way to win, that'd be special.
 
That's priceless. The refs didn't see enough evidence that the ball tipped off of Winslow's fingers? They believe in magic. It just change course because it felt like it?

The Winslow no charges were also amazing. Embarrassing acting. Then he stepped out(and walked on that possession before he stepped out). Whatever. The spread was Wisky-1. Seemed like they weren't supposed to win.
