Ducks v Tarheels

[JackJD]

This is not great basketball. Perhaps it is partially explainable as a defensive struggle but certainly some of this game can only be explained as a plain old struggle by both teams.

Well, just goes to show that even some great teams have off nights or at least several minutes of less-than-stellar play.

These guys look tired.

The finish is getting exciting.

Re: Ducks v Tarheels

I see the team that eliminated SDSU made the finals. Go Zags win it all.

Re: Ducks v Tarheels

Four trips to the tournament. Two teams we have played now have made the finals (Michigan and Gonzaga). One to the Final Eight (Baylor) and one to the Sweet 16 (Maryland). I believe each team we have played has been ranked #1 in the country at one point during the season the Rabbits have played them in the tourney.

UNC 78 Zags 73

Go Rabbits!

I like the Zags tonight. Matchup well with UNC down low and with Berry hurt I give the Zags the edge with guard play. If the Zags stay out of foul trouble I think they win.

Fouls killed the Zags.

So the flagrant call on Karnowski. They call that but not the one where the South Carolina guy about knocked his eye out? I really dont understand that.

It can get nasty under the bucket. Maybe we should feel lucky that Mike Daum still has his normal vision.

The refs may not have missed any fouls, but they did overlook this hand out of bounds! They may need to add another ref for these big games(I kid). They only called 27 fouls in the second half.

Re: Ducks v Tarheels

Maybe the person who emailed the LPGA about a rules violation the day after it occurred and got the leader's score changed can do something about this !

Re: Ducks v Tarheels

You know what they call that guy with his hand out of bounds there???


A National Champion.


Congratulations to Roy and his players. They had to battle through some of the worst shooting I've ever seen and a game with no flow due to what I would consider overly zealous officials. Officials that missed several calls as well. 3rd title for Roy, 6th overall for the UNC Tarheels. Not bad.

Re: Ducks v Tarheels

Ugh, the Cubs, now North Carolina. It cant get much worse then that. Puke.

Re: Ducks v Tarheels

Wonder what the over/under is on how many of the UNC titles will end up being vacated ? Oh wait - it's North Carolina, probably zero.

UNC administration is defending itself against accusations from an investigation that may have revealed legitimate violations but that might also have been a "trumped" up report lacking all of the facts. Regardless, its the position of the athletic department that Roy Williams and his staff were not aware of any illegitimate classroom activity. You don't have to believe any of that and ultimately it doesn't matter if you do or not.

There's one National Champion this year and it's the University of North Carolina. That is a fact.
