Florida wouldn't have taken out Duke. I don't know why they were a 1 seed.

They almost beat Duke @Duke when Duke was fully healthy.

But Florida peaked too early this year. They lost their mojo in March.

Not sad to see Florida out.

But that is one less team that could take out Duke.

I don't think they were beating the Houston/Illinois winner.

They also had some bad losses.

Different region and a very good Houston or Illinois likely come out of it

A good Duke killer doesn't need to be consistent. I don't care about their C game. I care if their A game is good enough. Iowa cannot possibly beat Duke. UF was at least theoretically possible.

I think we should just hope Duke wins it all.

Iowa vs Nebraska

Iowa won't get to dook.

Tenn. shows how a #6 seed takes care of business.

Tenn was actually favored.

No they won't.

I just can't truly enjoy upsets until Duke is out of the tournament.

That’s one way… get a #3 seed who is overrated.
Presto!

Tenn. showed the way… get lucky with your paring in the dance.
First ingredient in the recipe.

Yeah that was not a good result if you want to maximize the chances of Duke not winning it all.

the BIG is eating this tournament

Looking like they could end up with 4-5 in elite 8

Just as long as Michigan doesn't make the Final Four.

Alabama is obliterating TTech in the first half.

If UNC is out, upsets are canceled until Duke is also out.

Centerpiece · 2026-03-22T23:19:58-0400

UCONN on the way.
No upset here

Centerpiece · 2026-03-22T23:27:51-0400

Sweet 16 all but set.
Only thing left is to see if Alabama can hold a 20 pt lead.
