Williams not being able to finish is the death of Arkansas.

It’s amazing how many layups or shots under the rim Arkansas misses. It’s been a problem all year. We somehow routinely shoot like 20% under the basket.

Also we just apparently don’t understand how to attack a zone at all, apparently, just crazy

I know Arky's dead, but Jaylin Williams is incredible to watch. Even when he's missing.

If this were a close game I would be furious about some of these foul/no foul calls but we are getting our asses kicked in every phase of the game and it’s not particularly close, all I can do is laugh

Yeah hard pass. I don’t need Coach K ride off into the sunset BS in my life.

Honestly, Duke/UNC one last time in the tournament with Coach K's greatest rival potentially ending his career feels almost scripted to happen at this point.

Duke was destined as soon as Coach K announced he was retiring before the season, because we live in a hell world.

Obscure to all except those well-versed in Yuuzhan Vong lore.
Anyone rooting for a Duke/North Carolina matchup because some bullshit about rivalry and blue bloods or whatever is literally evil and shouldn’t be allowed to talk sports anymore.

I'm not. I'm a UNC homer and they've played like they belong this deep in the tournament. It's gonna be close either way.

gently caress me I don't want to play Duke again though.

the best final I saw was Duke/Connecticut in 1999 who were the consensus #1 and #2 teams in the tournament (Duke was so insanely overhyped that year that they were a ridiculous 10 point favorite in the final against the second best team in the tournament)


also UNC/Villanova since I guess Nova are a "blue blood" now

I got mixed up on the start time so I checked in with KU down four already and figured "oh great here's the Elite Eight swoon to some random lower seed" so seeing them come out in the second half and slap the taste out of Miami's mouth is shocking to me. These games always end up a doomed-from-the-outset death march for us
