DBZFan2K 0 Posted March 16, 2007 I avoided Winthrop because way too many of the talking heads had them as their trendy upset pick. I guess it makes sense though... Top 25 and ranked as a 11 seed. I'm just glad I didn't have ND getting past round 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JT 137 Posted March 16, 2007 I avoided Winthrop because way too many of the talking heads had them as their trendy upset pick. I guess it makes sense though... Top 25 and ranked as a 11 seed. I'm just glad I didn't have ND getting past round 2. I was a big ND tout coming into the tourney. Had them winning twice. That drought they hit to start the second half was just too much to overcome. Hey, I haven't been listening to the Wisc-TxAMCC game. Is the Daniels kid from TXAMCC related to the old pro, Mel Daniels? Bears more than a passing resemblance. ETA: Guess not. Just read his bio.

JT 137 Posted March 16, 2007 If that #5 from Wisconsin, Jason "First Lady Of The American Theatre" Chappell was on Duke, he'd be the most hated player in the country. What a flopper!

nobody 2,884 Posted March 16, 2007 I think Duke's going to rethink it's strategy of recruiting guys that will play 4 years for them. Also how did Wisconsin score 57 points in 1 half when they barely can score 57 points in full games? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was bad, but it wasn't just against Illinois. Don't forget Washington taking a blatant elbow, then getting called for an intentional foul when he tripped over an Illini players seconds later.
