    Seriously...how many calls went against baylor...it was ridiculous watching the game in the second half. Whenever baylor is about to take over the game, the refs are there to bring it back in favor of duke.

      FYI...I didnt bet on this game as I knew this sort of shit would happen. But I hate when the mob controls the outcome of the tourney...they have done it all weekend long...go check out the matches in elite 8 and you will know.

        Yeah kind of figured the refs would help in this one. Everytime i watch the replay of that so called charge it wasn't even really close. That was a clear block and should of fouled Zoubek out. Baylor goes up by 5 after that but instead its a charge. It sucks refs decide games like today.

          Come on guys, that game wasn't fixed....

          Duke won this game because of one stat...

          Offensive Rebounds - 22...

          We were the tougher team and down the stretch we knocked down huge 3's, don't give me this crap about fixes and what not...

                  If you knew the game was fixed and this sort of stuff would happen, why didn't you take Duke? Seems like a good angle to me.

                      The amount of ridiculous calls on Baylor was why they lost, nothing else. It was beyond rigged.

                        you cannot be ****in serious right? even if Duke was my team I would still admit the fact that the refs kept my team in the game and gave them every advantage to run away with it but they still sucked and couldn't do it, so the refs had to take over again the deciding minutes to secure the win for Duke. Its just a shame that a program like Baylor who has overcome past problems and is trying to make a name for itself got dicked over and never had a shot at taking this one because the refs would have never allowed it.

                          Baylor was a truly public dog, an almost never seen 63% betting consensus. On top of that there were reverse linemove, duke went from -4.5 -108 to -4.5 -115. If there was a game that a group of people wanted fixed or knew was fixed this was it, looking at linemove.

                            Wow do you guys ever get sick of calling every game fixed? Baylor lost because they are pussies and they couldn't get a rebound. Duke got 3 3's and a 3-point play (12 points) down the stretch all on offensive boards. Did the refs or the mob somehow allow Duke to get those boards? Oh wait, I know, the refs fouled out Lomar which is what allowed Duke to get those boards. The refs made Lomar run into Scheyer while he's shooting a 3. Oh and by the way I absolutely hate Duke.

                            Can you give one legitimate example other than the charging call? Yes, I agree that was a block but come on how many questionable block/charges are there in every basketball game?

                                    Didn't see the game, was at work. Most of the season I avoided taking Duke but today I felt they would cover the -5.

                                            B. Are an extreme Baylor homer and/or extreme Duke hater or.....
                                            C. You lost a truckload of money betting on Baylor and can't accept the fact you made the wrong call.

                                              I used to think people joked most of the time when they said "fixed", but I guess people are just that paranoid.

Give me a break and move on. I certainly wouldnt gamble EVER if I thought there was a chance of a fix. Lick your wounds fellas and pick better next time.

                                                          ur an idiot if you think duke -4.5 was a good play. Baylor fell apart in the last 3 minutes and gave Duke the game AND cover.

                                                            Thank you, my 4 years of college I was lucky enough to get in with the Mob taking action on my games (no worry about payout, just better make sure you have pay up when it comes time) and I become really close friends with the runner and at no times is the mob and the book working together, guy above puts it best, they are always finding ways to beat it.

                                                              I'm not a Duke fan by any stretch. One bad call with over 4 minutes left in the game, doesn't make a game fixed.

                                                                Yes the charge call was terrible i think most would agree on that. I mean if you know anything about basketball. Baylor would of went up by 4 and with a free throw up 5. But Duke did hit some big shots down the stretch. Duke basically wins games by going to the free throw line. They have some great free throw shooters that win them games nice work. Scheyer damn is a prime example why people hate duke.

I was at the game and this sounds like one of the snivelling Baylor fans sitting around me who sat there and bitched about Duke getting all the foul calls early in the 2nd half and then didn't notice that after they whined about it - the next four or five fouls were all called on Duke. Baylor has no one to blame but themselves. They left Duke's shooters open all day and if Duke had hit their threes early in the 2nd half - any sort of stupid ref bias talk would have been out the window because Duke would have been up a half dozen or more points and in control. Baylor was a good story and they were a good team, but they showed nerves down the stretch with some poor shot selection and they missed too many FTs. And unless a controversial call happens on the final play - one play as said does not determine the outcome. I find it funny that some people still hate on Duke at any cost when they haven't won a title in almost a decade and hadn't made the Final 4 in six years.
