  • It's just a matter of time before the AAC starts sending 5 or 6 teams to the tourney and advancing.

    • Refs missed this hook and hold on the final missed FT put back for Duke. Would have ended the game 2 FT's for UCF and the ball and up 1 in the final seconds.

        Yeah the second consecutive missed call. Just after the obvious lowering of the shoulder by Zion. But hey, money talks and Zion brings eyeballs. CBS would have hated to have a tournament with no Zion after the first weekend.

      This is exactly how Duke beat Wake Forest earlier this year carbon copy almost.

      Really sickening loss.

      • I hate to be “conspiracy theory guy”, especially with UCF having themselves to blame for a few miscues, but it sure seemed like the refs tried as much as they could to make it go Duke’s way at the end.

        Ratings and money much better with Duke and Zion in the tourney.

              This is the same play where they missed an obvious two handed push in the back on the rebound. Give me a screenshot of those outstretched arms.

                Yep I saw the 2 hand push live, the UCF guy got shoved out of the picture, can't believe they didn't comment on it on replay, just kept showing it as the "game winning shot". Then the hook & hold to boot, just makes me even more sick.

            • And who is surprised by the favorable Duke whistle? Absolutely nobody.

              • All the Sweet 16 regions chalk so far except KU.

                • It could end up all chalk minus KU and KSTATE.

                        Yeah, not surprising. Can’t wait until he’s in the NBA.

                      • Hate to be the naysayer.... great game... UCF does not blow the layup, non issue... I saw UCF several times this year, including Wichita... by FAR the best they played

                          I don’t disagree with that. UCF had their opportunities and Dawkins played great. But ESPN is definitely using Zion as their prime marketing tool. That he dominated UCF was prolly overstating it a little.

                      • As another poster mentioned, amazing how this tournament has been almost all chalk. No Cinderella this year.
