The 2017 game still stings, gave it completely away. Shame that Mo and Jericho both fouled out and left Osetkowski and 4 guards to have to deal with the Bagley and Carter front court for overtime. Osetkowski’s best game of his Texas career by far, he looked like baby Kevin Love that day lol.

Hope all that perimeter shot developing improvement shows up in this game.

One-off games are ok I guess, but hopefully we'll get better games at Moody this year.

While it doesn't sting as much, the 2005 game still lives rent free in my head.  JJ Redick could not be stopped back then.

Very cool. Was on Duke’s campus yesterday when this was announced.

Actually, in that game after Bamba and Sims fouled out it was Shaka's "brilliance" that decided to guard the 6'9 and #2 pick Marvin Bagley with 6'2 Eric Davis instead of 6'10 future ACC Defensive player of the Year James Banks on the bench.

Good point lol. I was a student at the time and  had a mutual friend with Banks and got to hang out with him a few times. Needless to say he was pretty mad about that. Side note, Banks told me we were getting Matt Coleman, Mo Bamba, and Brian Bowen (who was his high school teammate) in that class. Should’ve been 3 for 3.
