We weren’t beating UL, but I wish we’d lost to them in the Final Four or title game instead.

SignUp Now!Totally. But that to me makes it seem like we were closer to the title than if we lost to a team that lost to another team that lost to another team.To me, UL was a juggernaut and we were fucked the second we had them in our region.
Maybe. But we still have to hear their bullshit no matter how stupid it is. Had we beaten them they wouldn't have anything to say. Now they can still say they ended K's career twice.My reaction to all of this is different than you guys. I don't think them not winning the title takes away much of the sting of Saturday night. I also don't think it will stop them from using it as a talking point for years to come. They're already doing it. "Our championship was Saturday night."
Likewise, had they won the title, I would have felt that almost validated our loss to them. As it is, we can't say "well, no one was beating them."
Isnt that embarrassing that a semifinal game is their championship for one of the best three programs in the history of the sport?
Apparently Duke-UNC only averaged 18.5 million viewers. Wisconsin-Kentucky in 2015 scored 22.6.
This sport really is dying. A Duke-UK Final in 2015 would have crushed Duke-UNC.
