We were in this bracket and were the best team in the bracket. Win the games. Hard to do that with a bum coach.
No need to get racistAt least UNC flamed out. Could’ve been Ucoon UNC Duke and UT.
A cyanide pill would’ve looked friendly at that point.
Only beat them by 4 in Maui. I think it will be another classic like their 2019 Sweet 16 game in Louisville.Purdue will roll Tennessee.
Not with Cal coachingYup.. frustrating because we are 15 pts better than this Duke team that’s still playing
Effing autocorrect.No need to get racist
Yup Duke is our exact opposite . A supposed worthless coach. Luckiest shot ever in 92, refs on their side, just happen to get a key injury in a game with a NC contender. Freshman team that doesn’t choke. They are George Costanza.If Shead doesn’t go down, Houston wins that game by 6-10 points. Sucks
Any team would be shell shocked losing their AA, let alone their PG at that. I’m sure if they had time to play without him they would look better but how lucky can Duke be?Houston is HORRIBLE without Snead.
Makes me even MADDER at Cal over the way he allowed this opportunity to slip by AGAIN!!!
College basketball is WEAKER than it's EVER been and our $8+ Million/year coach has gone SOFT and gotten FAT AND LAZY and has NO pride in himself or his team anymore!!!
SAD
Purdue is playing at a higher level than anybody not named UCONN in this tournament.Only beat them by 4 in Maui. I think it will be another classic like their 2019 Sweet 16 game in Louisville.
I don’t hate the man. But I hate his schtick. And I hate having him as our coach with the fury of a thousand suns.I. Hate. John. Caliworthless.
Yeah not personally just what he’s become as a coach.I don’t hate the man. But I hate his schtick. And I hate having him as our coach with the fury of a thousand suns.
Duke fan? No. I wanted Houston to win tonight. I’ve mentioned in another thread, anyone but Duke or UCONN.A Golden State fan AND a Duke fan, huh?
Excited for your Yankees this year?
Yeah the South was open. This was their first non double digit opponent and Hou struggles offensively. I mean IowaSt beat them by 29 a few weeks ago.Can you believe this?
Man you know nobody is beating UConnCouldn’t be setup any better. No way Duke doesn’t win this…
Makes me just as sad.Man you know nobody is beating UConn
Yeah I’d rather y’all won it. Anybody but the cheats or UConnMakes me just as sad.
Yep! Sickening!Yup.. frustrating because we are 15 pts better than this Duke team that’s still playing
If Shead doesn't get hurt Duke loses.But Duke was doomed with Scheyer they said.
They were on fire against Texas am and tonight wouldn't even look at taking a 3.I wouldn’t bet against N.C. State. They actually run an offense unlike Houston. We give Virginia a hard time but Sampson’s offense isn’t much better.
No we aren't. This Duke team plays great defense. They gave gotten betterYup.. frustrating because we are 15 pts better than this Duke team that’s still playing
I’m game!Sunday we need all hands on deck for a Duke can't lose thread.
If we can’t beat 14 and 15 seeds no point in begrudging 13, 12 and 11 seeds, we probably wouldn’t beat them either. The powers that be do not see a necessity to correct current situation so we will have to accept first weekend losses and just rejoice in making the tournament.Duke gets to the final 4 beating a 13, 12, 11, & a Houston team without its best player. I ****ing hate Duke.
I was just making the point because there’s probably 20-25 teams that would make the final 4 playing those same teams whether UK would be one of those or not is irrelevant to what I was pointing outIf we can’t beat 14 and 15 seeds no point in begrudging 13, 12 and 11 seeds, we probably wouldn’t beat them either. The powers that be do not see a necessity to correct current situation so we will have to accept first weekend losses and just rejoice in making the tournament.
We are but remember who we have coaching.Yup.. frustrating because we are 15 pts better than this Duke team that’s still playing
Strange when it always falls that way, we never take advantage of it. Yet when we we’ve made our Elite 8s and Final 4 runs they always been through the most challenging bracketsThis bracket was a gift and we couldn't even handle a 14 seed in the first round.
We don't use those standards here at UK, they are old and outdated. We should compare the generational wealth of former players.Imagine how bad it will be with Duke coming off a final 4 and being preseason number 1 and murdering UK in the Champions Classic by 30 bc they will actually return players and add the number 1 class.
Cal won’t care and Mitch still won’t realize the fanbase is upset.
I’m not being hyperbolic… I really don’t understand why people who make decisions at our university aren’t much more worried about where this program is at.
still too much money coming in for them to be worriedImagine how bad it will be with Duke coming off a final 4 and being preseason number 1 and murdering UK in the Champions Classic by 30 bc they will actually return players and add the number 1 class.

Duke was winning regardless. Houston struggles to score often, and they were struggling.It helps that UH lost a key player (Shead ankle injury).
