    your telling me that duke wouldnt have won the pac-12 season and tourney half those last 12 years since zona or whoever did it. obviously im saying put zona in acc with pukes out of conf and you telling me duke couldnt have ran the pac-12 this season and others zona didnt do it most likely..

    maybe im wrong i dunno. but you look at who duke played and beat all over the country then beating ville @yum center, before the suspension and they were playing really well. then they beat uva @uva when uva was the clear cut 2 to uk (think that gm anderson got hurt but wasnt a huge deal in the outcome if i recall correctly). there no comparing what they did all year to the best teams. but instead you think winning a 4 day tourney against who did zona play? ucla and ducks i know, please agree duke wins that tourney if they even remotely feel like it (zona fukking stopped ducks again). puke waxed a ncst team that kinda resembling ducks, then they faced a offensive team in nd that zona hasnt seen the likes of just for the opportunity to slug it out with unc again, remember we talking about a team that already has the best wins all over all season lets not forget. so a nd team that is basically a smarter version of isu caught them and this means they should be bumped for zona who had to beat what number rpi/bpi/kp ranking compared to the teams duke played all year?

    yep but they have the best post player in the country, and got a beautiful draw (that we agree they earned), it aint like zona isnt headed for a collision course with wiscy. id argue zags will be every bit as tough if not more for duke. only difference is duke wouldnt see uk till final where zona/wiscy face uk in the final 4, nothing wrong with that, after winner of that gm loses to uk then zags have their shot to prob lose but who knows, i think if they can get there it be a incredible gm. what a final four right?

    i def agree there, that got super sweet draw, like i said it gonna be some great tv for week 2 ! then the final 4 be sick. really doubt it was a accident, if they cant take that to elite 8 in a draw where i think either one of the 4 or 5 could lose in 1st round and if one of the make it to sweet 16 that shouldnt be a problem. he loses the sdst garbage ass/johnnies missing a player with no depth asses they already smoked at garden he should be fired on the spot..

    College basketball is a watered-down product more than any other sport because too many kids leave school early and turn out to be a busts in the NBA or overseas

    You got that reversed JJ. NBA is watered down, college is still a better product year-in, year-out.

    NBA is getting tougher and tougher to play as rosters are loaded

    College basketball is glorified high school ball

    Sophomores leaving to go in the NBA just to sit the bench or get cut or get lost overseas

    The NBA right now is rivaling Michael Jordan years and all time popularity

    yea but i love this sport and i like the way this year sets up at the top. 5 really good teams that should be playing for the right to face uk in the final four then championship gm. what more could you ask for? uk off the charts playing for history and they have this blend of really talented 4-5 teams behind them that are loaded with talent and all present certain unique matchups, have lots of experience, and all dominated the rest of the field just like uk did with the exception of a few slips.. seems like great theater and basketball the second weekend...stay tuned

    Rosters are loaded with what? Kids who should still be in college instead of rotting on the bench somewhere, throwing up bricks.

    I still rather watch college football over college basketball any day as it is a much better product

    They should change the rules back to the old days when college basketball was unbelievable

    i really only think a couple small things would make it back to what you would prefer. 1st off lower the mf'in shot clock at least to 30 with the girls ball for christ sakes, stop calling weak ass charges that are not damn charges, either by extending the circle out or teaching refs wtf the difference is between a charge and a block, and maybe widen the lane. presto the gm is more ascetically appealing.

    im getting increasingly fed up with fb overall, the nfl a hypocritical joke that is promoting offense and giving far to much power to refs to have even bigger impacts on gms than ever before. ncaa has turned into 80% 7 on 7 track meets, ive always loved fb but i just dont care for the direction it is taking and grow less fond by the year..

    Duke probably could have. But they aren't and they didn't.

    Rosters loaded with a bunch of kids that lack true fundamentals that could have been accrued by staying an extra year or two in school? NBA game is as watered down as its ever been.

    Duke should not be a 1 seed but Nova being a 1 is more crazy. The Big East name got them to the 1 seed and also helped Georgetown get seeded so high. I don't think they know the Big East is not what it use to be.
