Whew, that could have gone so wrong

Flip took 1 shot? Wild stuff.

Jon>>Cal

Jon has already more wins in the NCAAT than Cal does since 2019.

Duke has beaten 13-seed Vermont!

 

[sivartrenrag]

(that's a positive scheyerface ftr)

 

[DrKlahn]

12-seed James Madison won't be as easy

 

[DUKERULES14]

We are one win away from a really good year, IMO.

Lose a close Sweet 16 game to Houston (decided in final seconds), then I'll agree.

Get blown out by Houston or lose to the 8/9 in the S16, then no

 

[DrKlahn]

I don't think Duke has lost a first round game since D-F instituted 12/13/14/15/16 Watch

 

[Devilsforlife]

2007-2014 really was the first round suckage era. Three losses and the harrowing escape vs Belmont.

 

[DrKlahn]

Really surprised that Vermont got so physical with Duke. A little worried that they seemed to be bothered by the physicality of an America East team. But I guess the bottom line is the bottom line.

Imagine if Duke makes it to a matchup vs Houston

 

[DrKlahn]

I think Duke might be better off playing a team that is confident in its ability to defend Flip with its normal scheme than one that had to come up with gimmicks

Anyone how to watch a replay of this? Looks like CBS game replays aren't on the March Madness app.

Oh great not on CBS Sports app either. Fucking infuriating when companies somehow screw this up for me.

They stopped doing replays years ago. It's bullshit.

9-0 on blocked shots, Saint Mary's getting bullied out here

What a weird tweet. 8 in a row is not great.

 

[Hammy-O]

As much as I complain about Mitchell (to myself) I thought he was so key on defense switching on to their guards. God damn if he wasn’t such a horrible shooter
