Brutal ending for Duke ML backers, as they like NCS vs. Vandy, and UK vs. UAB, serve it up on a platter in the last 30 seconds.
Calhoun and UConn are now officially Coach K and Duke's krypton, as take away the Laettner jumper of '91, and were talking dominance, despite short tight margins.
Very foolish clock management & game strategy by Reddick, Ewing, and Deng in final minutes.

True NJ, it seemed contagious, and spread quickly, as I thought both games were prime examples of how the NBA's raid on youth in the draft, has absolutely killed the NBA as a quality product, and severely hurt the polish of the college game.
Yet the short arc, scholarship limitations/parity, eternal energy of youth, quality of coaches, and the old college try..seem to keep even a diminished NCAA as superior product to NBA.

I have to agree with what Packer said and in the end it was right on the money....When Duke was up big in the first half he had a choice, and he chose to put Williams back in with two fouls...Williams ends p in deep foul trouble the rest of the game and they had no post presence to end the game....Normally Duke gets that foul called on Reddick`s drive... all night long the refs called everything til then...Duke had no answer for Okafor...Calhoun outcoached him...The big men foul trouble was the difference, the coach that saved his big man won!
