Title: Duke vs UConn
Post by: Reacher on March 29, 2026, 10:19:56 AM
Who do we match up better against? Hopefully Duke, because UConn didn’t go so well this year.

Revenge matchup: Duhon's Ribs or 30-0 run?

As soon as I said that UConn caught Duke by surprise with a shocker. Two in the pink, once in the stink.

Holy fuck what a wild sequence and a helluva shot by Mullins.

Bring on UCONN. PLEASE no 30-0 run this time. That's all I'm asking.

Oh I want a 30-0 run, consisting of 15 by Wagler, 8 by Mirk, 4 by Andrej, and a 3 by Jake

Cayden Boozer with an all time tournament blunder.

Word. Hasn’t been talked up enough. He just does nothing, gets fouled, hits 2, game over

Can't believe they were playing keep away and risking a turnover when all they had to do was hold it and go to line.

All time scheyer blunder, somehow as bad as last year's. He's really making a name for himself with finding impossible ways to lose.

Scheyer is NOT that big game Coach.....hell yea he can recruit, win a boatload of games, but I fail to see the chops to get Duke where they think they should be year in/out.

Was casually watching this in a crowded bar, happened to catch the ending sequence and I’d guess something like 70-80% of the people in there, including me, jumped out of their seats and stood there in disbelief

Could not happen to a douchier fan base.

What a tourney. Illinois in the final four and both UNC and Duke blow 19 point leads

That's probably worse than the Webber time out lol. All they had to do was inbound the ball and stand there and wait for a foul. What the fuck were they doing?

The one thing you could not have was a turnover. Fucking dumb.

The shine is wearing off of Jon Scheyer for sure.

It really says “we have zero confidence in our ability to hit free throws so we have to try to run off a few seconds

Hit 2 - game over. Hit 1, make a non shooting foul and basically game over

I don't think it was even that. I think they wanted to get it over and dunk it and add an exclamation mark. The pass just got blocked.
