they better be 6-8 points ahead with about 30 seconds left because no ref is gonna make the call that puts an end to the Zion era.

Size and speed. They shot well above their average from three, otherwise only one other way for them to score. And they are not a great FT shooting team. I think someone will catch them slipping and put them away.

UCF blew that game. Officials were horrible in my opinion period and no it wasn’t Duke won because Duke got the calls. Charges were called that were blocks, fouls not called that were egregious. This occurred on both sides. I’m sorry, if it was a case where Duke got the favor whistle I would say so. Cam didn’t even foul on his 4th. Duke is lucky. Luck is often needed in the tournament. Dawkins Jr was on a mission and almost put them on his back for the W. I was coming here ready to own up to a loss but Zion did what a star does.
You realize this is a Kentucky message board right? Why are you not celebrating with your Duke buddies somewhere? What is your fascination in trying to cnvince us all that Duke is great and deserves everything they get? I don’t understand your mental defect?

God I pray you are right. I would rather them and UNC lose in the tournament anymore more than UK win. So tired of Duke dry humping players up and down the court, flopping to draw fouls, charge/block calls go in their favor 99% of the time. At least when the cheats and Duke go home it’s a fair playing field.

Yet none of these refs grab there little fuking cahonjas and make the call in Duke. All year they go to the monitor for any inkling of hook and hold, but there... not even a review. Yet nothing will come out of this except how "clutch" Duke and their freshmen are PLEASE , ANY COMMENTATOR THAT COMES OUT AND SAYS IT , THEY WILL BE MY HERO. SICKENING

When you beat Duke in the tourney like USC did 2 years ago you gotta do it by a good margin as the refs can influence a 2-3 pt game like they just did . LSU can do this . DUke ain't getting by LSU. SO LSU better not **** the bed against MSU.
You really counting on LSU? Gimme a break. It's a shame that this continues to happen in favor of one school all the time. These things are not on the up and up.
It's why I don't want to play them or UNC. Not because they are so much better. I know if it comes down to a call, UK will not get the right or fair call.

The team that beats Duke will be the team that isn't afraid of the letters D.U.K.E. on the front of the jerseys. UCF wasn't but, that final shot just didn't go down.

Shouldn't have needed it to. UCF should have been inbounding the ball after the Zion charge and hopefully making freethrows to seal the deal.

It’s not a charge. It’s the new defense people are employing against Duke where they wait for a duke guy to dribble and then dive under their legs or fling themselves backwards 10ft. Started with Bilas slurping all over willliams from unc doing it. It’ll stop when the refs stop falling for it.
The missed tip just became part of the story. Every champion has to escape once or twice.
********!!!!

It maybe time to consider a different sport to follow, this stuff is so obvious anymore on who they want to win, wwe is more realistic
UCF in on the conspiracy too? Did they miss the lob dunk on purpose. Convert that and probably ball game!

Looks like Dan is replaying a video from his Betamax VCR.

It sucks right now, but Twitter is blowing up over those non-calls. Even Seth Greenburg called out the refs. That's what it'll take to end this ********. National recognition, and holding referees accountable publicly.

Hate to say it but NCAA wont care when they are watching Zion play next week and cashing their checks

Zion looked like a wrecking ball going thru the lane. The kid is good but by no means needs any help from the zebras.
I always gave my kids a 'test"; to explain what it means when I say, "That team did not win the game, the other team lost it".
Duke did not "win" the game, UCF lost it; blew it really.

Whether you call the charge on Zion at the free throw line or not, you must call SOMETHING!! Way too much contact for all three officials to swallow their whistles. Even if you call it a blocking foul on the UCF player, Zion shoots the double bonus and Taco is still in the game to claim the rebound. At worst, the game goes to overtime.

I hate college basketball to be honest. I love Kentucky, but the rest of the country can go get ****ed.

This is my sentiment as well. I use to love to watch the tourney. Use to take off work and laze on the couch on Thursday and Friday.

Now I watch UK play and that's about it. It is so corrupt. It's just not fun anymore.

If not for my passionate love for the Cats I would not have the slightest interest in college basketball, because it's not what it use to be. Shoe scandals, fake classes, hookers in dorms, etc. have ruined it for me.
