I just think there's a pretty big gap between most of the top-16 teams that will win this weekend and most of the rest of the field.

How many shocking upsets were there truly? MSU and....maybe WVU, maybe Purdue? Most of the "upsets" were teams most had going home in R2 or R3. Most of the upsets are usually big conference also-rans playing solid, mid-major champions and equally capable of getting thumped in R2.

I think both of these games have been good. What are you guys expecting? This is the second round not the final four.

Well that got a little too interesting for my liking. Nevertheless, Duke advances to S16.

Really impressed with IU's defense. They have made it tough for Willis and Murray to get any looks.

I wasn't expecting Yale to be down 27 at the point when we were all posting those comments. Clearly Duke decided to stop playing hard with the massive lead.

Duke is famous for its Copperfield act. This was just another in a long line of them. Fortunately for Duke, Yale ran out of time.

Sweet 16 for Duke...was hoping they'd make it that far. The next 4 wins will just be bonus.

This is everything one could want in an Indiana-Kentucky game in March.

Also, fuck the committee. How they seeded these team here is an absolute joke. But, par for the course this year. Never seen so many shit teams seeded so high and vice versa for good teams.

The difference has been IU's inside game. Bryant and Williams have completely out-played Poythress, Skal, Lee and Willis.

I don't know if it works or not when I don't care who wins. Lol

Indiana does look the better team today.

Indiana just seems like it is playing for so much more than Kentucky. They are playing for a state that craves to return to basketball prominence.

Hey Azutakesitinthebuttke, looks like UK lacks talent. Couldn't even get out of round 2. Not one of the 16 best

Outside of Ulis and Murray nobody for UK has been worth a damn. Did not expect this at all.
