The players and coach of Duke are the most likeable part of the Duke team. The dislike probably stems more from the constant Duke talk from Dickie V and hype from espn. Plus, easy to root against a successful team. Also, easy to root against Duke fans. Especially when they lose at home, they just look so lost.

Bob Knight is a motherfucker. I hate that fucking piece of shit.

Actually you should hate Gonzaga for choking once again. Ever since people have started to look at this as a "major" instead of a "mid-major," they've been choking left and right.

I don't know, I tend towards hating people who make a habbit of choking students rather than groups who choke away games.

I love it when the announcers think everyone has been cut away from the HD feed.

"Well, after that first exciting game we've had a couple of duds."
 
I don't hate Bob Knight, I don't know him personally. What I do know is that he's obviously a good coach. 1 upset down, 1 more to go at 8:10. :lol

Fuck these refs.

The only reason Boston College isn't losing by 20 at half is because of the refs!

How the fuck do you not call an elbow to the throat when you are looking right at the play you dipshit ref!

This is sad. IF UW-Milwaukee loses to Boston College this tournament is fixed.

Hey lookee. Another touchy foul called against UW-Milwaukee and another techinal foul called against them. These refs are total jokes. Why don't you just give Boston College the win right now NCAA!

BC is pathetic.

The refs handed them the game on a silver platter and they still got beat down!

My Illinois allegiance stops with this next game though! Go Panthers!

I kinda want Kentucky to advance, since they're Florida's bitches and all, but I'm so used to rooting against them.
 
Cincy is gonna get blown out if they don't slow the tempo down and break down the UK D-Fence. WTF are they thinking, stop trying to run and setup some offense. And stop with the idiotic fouls.
 
Now they're playing their game... this is gonna be one of the best games of the tourney from the looks of it. Seth, do you think UK will be willing to renew some sort of UK-UC series? They'd be stupid not to imo.

Nothing to gain for UK. Will never happen.

For the record, this game wouldn't even be close without the refs keeping Cincy in it. They just ASKED the Cincy kid if he got the TO called? I've never, ever seen that before in all my life. Or wait, did he take the word of the Cincinnati cheerleader? Either way, stupid.
 
UC has been getting some calls, but Cincy has been hitting their shots down the stretch, and they're starting to rebound. Their FG % improved drastically as the game wore on. UK has turned it over with stupid mistakes, and they're settling for jump shots instead of driving it to the hole so they can get fouled. I think they're intimidated by UC's inside presence (strength not size necessarily). Don't blame it on the refs. Azibuike is the only one taking it to the whole besides Rondo, and Hayes got himself in foul trouble early.

Did you see the traveling call on Rondo when he got hacked? Or when he caught it and immediately went up? Or the two weak fouls that took Hayes and Buike out of the game for the second half of the first half? I'm sure you missed all that. Yes, we aren't playing well, but the ref TOOK THE WORD OF THE CHEERLEADER. Try commenting on that. You can't make excuses for that BS...haha. Seriously, the ref chased down the UC player to ASK him if he had called a timeout. Have you ever in your life seen that? No. Why? Because if a ref didn't SEE the timeout call, it isn't supposed to be given.

Plenty to gain for people watching.

Kentucky fans don't give two shits about playing Cincinnati. Cincy fans may be another thing entirely. But the series was ended because of their stall ball in the 80s. They can blame it on themselves. If not for that game (24-11, UK) we'd still have a series with them.

True, didn't look like he had the TO. :lol
