please note that while Duke is indeed evil and their defeat and Krzyzewski ending his career as a loser are undeniably good things, UNC is also deeply evil and nothing good should ever happen for their sports teams

Don’t get me wrong I’m rooting for a meteor in the NC game but this is the most hilarious way for him to retire.

Taking a little out of context but Coach K in the postgame: 'I love the fact that they feel that bad' about players who feel bad about missing free throws and such.

(free throws were pretty damned iffy on both sides, Manek almost got UNC out of the game before hitting that three)

There were no teams I could conceivably have cared about winning the title by the time we reached the Final Four (yes, even Villanova, who only look like underdogs by comparison to other three) so Duke losing to UNC was the best possible outcome.

If you don't agree please imagine what would have come out of sports media had Duke won two more games this year

Even as a Duke fan, Hubert Davis going 2-0 at Cameron and in the Final Four against Coach K during his last season to bring K’s record vs UNC to 50-50 is objectively hilarious.

Can we retire Geno too? Man's almost 70 and I feel like he's needed a nap every time I hear anything he says to the press for the last 20 years.

I enjoy a good turnover trying to pass the ball to someone trying to come off the bench to check into the game.

Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.
still salty about the NC State-UConn game, Pack absolutely had a Final Four worthy team and could be in this game right now if they didn't have to essentially play an away game for their regional final

oh well Wes Moore will get them back there and with any luck Geno will die watching it

Welp. Hope UConn has less bad luck next year. Also was never a huge fan of the players in the outgoing senior class.

I am very, very happy this morning. :)

Dawn Staley is the GOAT and I'm so loving glad she's on our sideline. I honestly watched most of this game in shock because I've never seen UConn taken apart like that, and certainly not on that stage. I kept expecting The Big Run (and frankly, was worried we wouldn't be able to turn that back and beat them twice), but aside from a couple spurts here and there, it just never came. Beuckers got hers, but she was slow to get going, and we effectively took Williams and Fudd out of the game when they'd been going crazy all tournament. An absolute master class defensively and on the boards from South Carolina.

I'm thrilled Aliyah Boston got redemption after missing that bunny against Stanford last year, and happy to be hanging another banner when COVID robbed us of a chance at one in 2020. Feels real good, man.

Slowpoke!

Aside from wanting Duke to lose, there aren’t really any interesting stories.
