And I suspect you will be putting your money where your mouth is.

Got that right. Had Texas over Texas a m first half. And just lived bet Texas again. I want a & m to go down!!!!

I’ve done that playing BB. Three weeks for me to recover.

That’s all? That’s a very fast recovery from that. You were lucky or a great healer.

Duke coach Jon Scheyer said it's a "real long shot" that freshman star Cooper Flagg will be able to play in the ACC tournament semifinals because of an ankle sprain.

Even if they wrapped him right away and iced that 24/7. No way.

we should all be rooting for Baylor over Texas Tech tonight

 

[paultzman]

In his last game perhaps

Baylor loses to Texas Tech by 2. Baylor had last possession with about 5 seconds left VJ Edgecomb dribbled up court and took a wild running 3 from just outside the line when he could have easily pulled up elevated and took a normal jump shot.

Wow UK just choked away an 11 pt lead.

They turned it over 3 times last minute.

UK doesn't have a point guard and it shows.

 

[fordham96]

Holy sh** Kentucky blew an 11 pt lead in the last 2 minutes then went length of court and Oweh scores for UK to win by 1...

I think Oklahoma is in anyway. Wow SEC may get 14 teams, that is insane.

Oklahoma D backed off too much. Should not have let the inbounds pass go to a player with momentum going up the court and then never turned him.

Dude is going to lie through his teeth. A high ankle sprain is normally a 6-8 week injury. Without Flagg they will drop lines,‘probably only 1 or 2, but drop.

Houston's J'Wan Roberts apparently dealing with an ankle issue too. Would be crazy if both teams lost these kids for any length of time.

Better coaching all season would have corrected that

I’ve done that playing BB. Three weeks for me to recover.

Rolled mine hopping over the rail into row m at Carnesecca. I was in a world of pain. My foot swelled up, and I had a nasty sprain. Kept me out of the gym for a few weeks.

Flagg's season may be over, and the Dukies may get bounced early.

Let's see of the selection committee penalizes them for Flagg being out.

Glad to see Pete Gillen is still alive. Sometime you lose track of people. I heard his voice and was like Oh yeah…

I watched that game. At one point Gillen used the Les Keiter classic “in again out again Finnegan”. Hadn’t heard that in years.

 

[Mullins Revenge]

The question becomes if Duke loses today and Flagg is going to miss 2-3 weeks, do they lose their 1 seed?

I believe the committee does factor injuries into their seedings.

 

[fordham96]

Just thinking if UNC beats Duke today without Flagg and Maliq Brown will committee take that into account when say comparing them vs Xavier.

Field of 68 has UNC vs Xavier in Dayton.
