What are people saying that had Duke. It's rigged. 😉 Notice people that say it's rigged lost generally. If they won rigged is not coming out if their mouth. 😂
I had Houston ML but the 'over the back' call on Flagg late to put Houston at line & the lead was completely bogus

But Duke did get that call earlier when the ball went thru his legs and did actually touch the player

Nice grab on Houston BTW. Sharp move. 😉 😝
Tank and I discussed it in the March Madness thread

Expected to be able to trade back during the game but never had a chance

Had to just sit & take it and complete luck it hit

Also parlayed both dogs. I brushed that play & Auburn loss off but after Houston pulled it out then Tigers loss hurt a little more

No luck involved. You created your luck. You took the right team and won. NO luck in that.

I'm not sure the foul on Flagg made a difference.... Let me explain.

> Houston got the rebound on the play.
> Roberts was fouled and the guy shoots bricks. 59% career FT shooter (but not last night).

If I was Houston and could tell the ref, "Whoa up. Don't call the foul on Flagg. Let us run our offense instead", I would have taken that option than Roberts shooting clutch FTs.

Sure Roberts ended up making both but I bet Sampson was on the sideline s#itting himself when Roberts let that first FT go. :ROFLMAO:

Most of the games Duke lost this season, were right there for the taking and ended when Flagg went (was forced to?) iso and turned it over or missed a terrible shot, against zone defense. He's super athletic, but he's no MJ or Kobe. Yet.

This loss is 100% on Duke coach who couldn't draw up a simple play to get this guy semi-open.
This reminds me of a stat I saw...

Prior to last night, Duke played a top 20 defense 3X this year (Kansas, Clemson, Auburn). They lost two of the 3 only beating Auburn in Durham. Houston D is #1. I realize Duke collapsed in the last few minutes but part of it was Houston's defense too.

Definitely look forward to Monday's game.
