The officiating today has been exceptionally horrid in some key games. That's being nice.

Duke is really an easy team to dislike, pushing guys into the backboard, whining for calls when they weren't touched.

Yuck.

Love the UNC fans who have suddenly become chicken fans.

Having grow up a Gamecock fan, there is still plenty of time for the Chicken Curse to wield its power

Well, we have as good a chance to get to Final Four as anyone else at this point!

Frank Martin may be a peach of a guy during normal business hours but he is one scary lookin' dude while the game is being played.

UF is now #3 in the KenPom

And Sas - UNC has now snuck into the top 20 in both Off and Def

SC that is all...:eek:

So UF COULD keep having to play the same team, UVa, UWis, SoCar all the way to the final four?

In KenPom rankings they are:

UVa: Number 13 after UF, Offensive efficiency 112.4 (51), Defensive Efficiency 88.2 (2)
UWis: Number 21, Offensive efficiency 112.4 (51), Defensive Efficiency 91.8 (8)
SoCar: Number 28, Offensive efficiency 107.5 (124), Defensive Efficiency 88.8 (4)

Baylor would of course be somewhat of a contrast:

Baylor: Number 10, Offensive efficiency 118.2 (20), Defensive Efficiency 93.0 (13)

For comparison UF is:

UF: Number 3, Offensive efficiency 116.6 (26), Defensive Efficiency 88.5 (3)

Of course first things first and dealing the the bulk of Wisconson in front court.

Duke a supposed Basketball school has now lost the most times to a seed 5 slots higher than ANY team since 2007. Talk about underachieving!! And to think people used to complain about Billy D and UF over and over again. Now its the same with Mike White.

UNC got a few good calls down the end and then Arky panicked.


I watched the end of ARK-UNC and those were two bad decisions by the refs. And I believe it played a good bit into ensuring UNC advanced, but I'm looking at ARK and saying "C'mon guys...make a freaking shot!" because they did not help themselves at all down the stretch. Yes, the refereeing was bad, but you have to at least do your part to try and win the game, and they didn't..

Bad calls.

Bad playing by ARK to close it out.

Both gave UNC the win, not just the refs.

Arky and Rhode Island both got hosed by the officiating, but you gotta keep those big money making teams in the tourney a little longer, right?

Explain that to Duke, Nova, Lou. But yeah, some bad calls were made, to be sure.

Tripple whammy for the razorbacks.

1st- the north carolina player runs over the defender like a damn bull

2nd- Lands an elbow on said player he just trampled (No call on either)

3rd- Kinglsey mystified two clear as day calls are missed doesn't properly block out his man, allowing an easy tip in go ahead basket.


4- **** fake tan boy roy williams. I want to slap that bastard every time I see his rat face
