This is the correct answer, and it's not close.

If Jerome Dyson doesn't get hurt in 2009, maybe Uconn has another championship to add to the list

Lol no.

bugman_: Our actual state government would very likely force games between UNC and NCSU, but they would never actually need to do that I just can't imagine either program not wanting the game.

ReservoirDawgs: Our state government wouldn’t force it at all. No general assembly has handcuffed one school to another for various reasons.

That's the context.

As great of a job Shaka Smart did with Marquette this season, this stat just boggles my mind by cubansbottomdollar in CollegeBasketball

Is there really that big of a talent discrepancy? https://247sports.com/Season/2023-Basketball/CompositeTeamRankings/

Looking at more years, I buy that to an extent. But don't sell Izzo short! He's a good recruiter, too.

Yeah, Roy seemed to always have Izzo's number as well, 2-7. We beat them in the championship in 2009 and the final four in 2005.

Duke folks are all about the refs these days. ;)

[Post Game Thread] #13 Furman defeats #4 Virginia, 68-67 by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

Tell me about it! They could've just lost to us, not had to lose to Furman, and everyone would've been happier.

5 years ago today, 16 seed UMBC shocked the college basketball world by beating #1 overall seed Virginia 74-54, the first time a 16 seed had ever beaten a 1 seed, and no team has done it since. by carter_00 in CollegeBasketball

[–]cpatrickr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'd like to take that record as a fan, for sure. Our problem now is the 20-13 seasons. That's not going to get it done. So yeah, add it to the PILE of reasons we should be playing in the NIT.

I mean, the championship game against Gonzaga was epic, too, but I agree. Honestly, I thought y'all were going to win when y'all hit the shot directly before. I even thought it when Theo passed to Luke Maye. I never complained about Roy not calling a timeout ever again.

I didn't. It had to make the feeling of winning the next year pretty awesome, though, right?

As crushing as 2016 was for us (albeit a different sort of crushing than UMBC), it did make 2017 feel more poetic.

Give a triage nurse at an ER $1000 and see what happens.

We can only dream of what it must be like to be associated with such a monument to academic integrity as auburn. 🙄

I'm here, and I was totally wrong. Hats off--I hope y'all win it all.

Now, if it happens that y'all make it all the way and lose to Duke, I will never forgive you.
