I'm with you bro.  I was sweating it when Duke was missing so many free throws and having problems just bringing the ball up, but they gutted it out.

I said before the pattern is for Duke to lose early in the NCAAs when they have injuries to starters as the tournament starts, but Foster really helped tonight, especially in the 2nd half. Didn't expect him back with a broken foot. If they get by on Sunday and have a few more days for Ngongba and Foster to heal it shapes up to be a great Final Four.

Weird stat # 1 - Duke has trailed by > 10 points in six games this year and came back to win them all.

Weird stat # 2 - in their last three losses Duke held leads of 14 points (Houston in last year's FF), 17 against Texas Tech and 13 against UNC before blowing it.  44 points worth of blown leads in their last three losses - an odd stat.

Gotta say that Arizona looks like the best team so far though. One local high school kid on the team (Koa Peat).

Great slate of tournament games this weekend. All eyes are on college basketball in march and marquee games are being played on weekends and prime time.

CFP needs to figure out how to replicate some of this, start by expanding to 16 or 24 teams and restructure the CFP to make December for college football like march is for basketball. No competing with nfl playoffs in December. There shouldn’t be a 2-3 week lull between end of regular season and playoffs. Have the national championship game on New Year’s Day a traditional day for college football. Heisman trophy after that. This schedule prevents the nonsense of having the portal open while teams are still competing in the playoffs
