6. They truly are
Which is why they beat Duke. Duke is a group of individuals.

9. Now if it were only possible for Notre Dame football, the Dallas Cowboys,
and the New York Yankees all to lose on the same night somehow, I'd REALLY be happy, LOL.

14. No kidding
I was thinking that about the Skanks. But yes, add ND and the Cowboys and that would be something else. I do not think the folks at ESPN would survive that.

8. Duke was so over-rated all season.
Glad the Tarheels got to smack them down at least once during the season. :hi:

26. Explain how this is so.
They lost 3 games despite having one of, if not THE toughest schedule in College basketball. They DESTROYED Texas by 40 points. The teams that they did lose to, with the exception of Florida State, are still in the tournament right now. They had two first team all-americans and the leading scorer in ACC history.

They had troubles rebounding the ball and they don't play very good on the ball defense. DESPITE this, they won 30 games. Then they went on to win the ACC tournament AGAIN.

I know that people don't like them, but...How, exactly, were they overrated?

28. By definition. They didn't even make it past LSU.
Edited on Fri Mar-24-06 12:34 AM by Lex
Just my opinion.

Your mileage may vary.

11. Yes, their size was key.
They did a great job on the boards.

16. I agree
Absolutely exhilarating, and evidence good does win once in a while. I'm sure there are many good Democrats who support Duke, but thankfully I'm not one of them.

15. Thank god Vitale and Patrick weren't annoucing this game
They wouldn't be able to talk through their tears. I'm sure the 2nd half would have been a JJ clip show with Vitale overusing the words awesome, wonderful, and dandy.

23. For me, it's "Geaux Whoever's Playing Duke"...
but it's even sweeter that the closest tournament team to N.O. (neither Tulane nor UNO even got close) got it done!

I always thought when a La. team was playing Duke, everyone should chant "Stop Duke! Stop Duke! Stop Duke!", with the implied double reference to David :-)

21. I'm happy to see this.
Not just for my bracket, but for the fact that I've hated Duke since the 80's.

Damn them for putting Laettner in the spotlight in the 80's! I've hated them ever since.
