Syracuse/Duke

[CaribouJim]

Easily best game of the year. Playing a different game than what we witnessed earlier today at MSG.

Inspite of their traitor status was rooting for 'Cause in large part due to their Big East DNA. Will miss those road trips there.

Had to be for Duke, which was tough to handle. Cannot support the Iscariot wing of the old BIG EAST in any fashion.

I have to disagree I was rooting for Syr because I believe Coach K was even more responsible than Syr. I remember Boheim hated the move. I actually am not a Duke hater i used to root for them. Anyway great great great game well played both sides.

Weirdly found myself rooting for Duke. A place I have not been before.

I like Parker as he's a fellow Chicagoan and from all accounts a really good kid (and dream that he would have matriculated to Milwaukee for college). I do take pride in that these are the only two ACC teams that I think are worth a crap and could do anything in March.

Maybe.

Arizona-Cal was just as good that night. Oh ya, one was on ESPN.

...one was on ESPN at a time when anyone in the country who wanted to, could view it...without losing sleep.

So, that is how you rate a game.

Yup. Sad, isn't it.

Back when I lived on the West Coast, I was up on all Pac-8/Pac-10 teams. Now that I'm on the East Coast, not so much. BTW, I suspect the infamous "West Coast Bias" that affect many ratings polls has the same origin.

I'm not defending it. It is what it is.
