<p>They aren't looking so good tonight. Certainly not like a team that can win the tourney!</p>
<p>yep they lost and LSU won.</p>
<p>Yeah, you usually lose to teams when you shoot 28% in a game.</p>
<p>It's still sad though. ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH!!!</p>
<p>i definitely had a lot of $$ riding on them... darn..</p>
<p>It was a really big upset.</p>
<p>I picked duke to win it all, but i didn't bet any money, and I LOVE upsets... they make the NCAA tourney that much more worthwhile.</p>
<p>meh i picked them in the championship (losin to UF baby), but whatev, didn't have any money riding on it, so go figure. whatever.</p>
<p>all duke was doing was attempting (and apparently failing) to shoot 3 pointers. i think at the end of the game they were 3/24 for 3 pt shots. what ****ed me off the most was how much redick choked. HE SCORED 11 POINTS !!!. wow. thats alot of points for a leading scorer. (sarcasm).
ps i bet $20 on duke winning it all. there goes a weeks worth of lunch money.</p>
<p>Anybody who bets on Duke to win it all is a tool.</p>
<p>Anyone who knows anything about NCAA hoops knows that LSU was a very tough matchup for Duke. It was not a "really big upset."</p>
<p>^Yup. The teams who live and die by the 3-pointer like Duke has been doing don't usually get lucky/aren't good enough to get all the way through. Happened to the Dookies tonight, although Sheldon Williams played pretty well.</p>
<p>Duke's main problem is that they only have two players who actually contribute. Redick was shut down tonight, and Williams could only pick up so much slack. Give credit to LSU's D; they smothered Duke.</p>
<p>As for me, I had LSU beating Duke in my pool.</p>
<p>"pretty well"?</p>
<p>... didn't he get 23 and 13? That's pretty damn good.</p>
<p>I'm pulling for George Mason to go as far as they can. I live very close to that school, and they play in the same conference as my school.</p>
<p>Duke's main problem was that they think Redick is good. Every single big game he has played in over the past 4 years he has choked in. Also, Sheldan gets in foul troubble in every big game. Those two were the reason theve lost the past 3 years and Duke will be better off with out them. I'm glad the J.J. Redick era is over. I heard no body likes him at Duke also.</p>
<p>Redick was shut down, like he will be if he makes it to the NBA. LSU is a lot like an NBA team in terms of size and speed (although they can have shooting problems), and they completely destroyed JJ.</p>
<p>"Those two were the reason theve lost the past 3 years and Duke will be better off with out them."</p>
<p>Gimme a break. You're talking about two of the five best players in the country. I hate Duke, but to say that Duke is better off without them is ridiculous. Actually, your whole post is ridiculous. Williams was in no more foul trouble than any other big man--in fact, his great play caused BOTH of LSU's big men to get in early foul trouble. And Duke's problem is that they "think" Redick is good? Well, I guess that's everyone's problem then, because just about every coach, commentator and fan thinks Redick is the best player in the country (and at the very least, the best guard). You're really talking out of your ass here.</p>
<p>lsu was manhandling them on defense the entire night
did you see how many uncalled fouls they made against williams? and what about temple's holding on reddick throughout the ball game...
lsu bullied their way to victory, 'nuff said</p>
<p>J.J. is not the best college player in the country, Adam Morrison is. And Morrison's team got cheated out of a spot in the elite 8, the refs were the ones who really choked in that game.</p>
<p>"J.J. is not the best college player in the country, Adam Morrison is."</p>
<p>An arguable point; either way, Redick is in the top 2, no contest.</p>
<p>I don't see how Morrison's team was "cheated" by the refs. Gonzaga spent the whole night in the bonus because of touch fouls on UCLA. Once UCLA got back into their normal form with suffocating D, Gonzaga couldn't handle it. They're a one-man team, and that could only take you so far against QUALITY opponents.</p>
<p>That UCLA-Zaga game had some of the ugliest mugs in college basketball.</p>
