Duke lost by their reliance on a single player to win for them. Reddick had an off night and Duke had no inside game to make up the difference. A team has to play as a team to win, five players on the court have to win as a team. Duke didn't play as a team and LSU responded with great rebounding as well as shutting down Reddick to make the difference.

They had no inside game? Did you not notice Williams' 23 points?

Dude, you are honestly an idiot if you believe that or expect anyone else to.

LSU shot themselves in the foot all night with horrible ball handling. They shot themselves in the foot with God awful free throw shooting. The officials helped out by keeping LSU's big men in foul trouble all night with ticky tack fouls.

Duke had all that going in their favor and.... They. Still. Lost. LSU completely locked J.J. up and pretty much threw the whole Duke offense of their game. Live with it.

If by worse you mean better, then you're waaaaay off.. as nice of a lose this is for Duke nothing compares to the Yanks blowing it.. except maybe USC blowing it :D

is it really? i mean a no.16 seed pwning the no.1!

didn't think anyone would bite. not only did you take the bait, you yanked the rod in the water.

:cookie:

BTW, the real reason Duke lost is they were distracted by Mrs. Brady. :D

So so sorry Chuckywang. Now you can choke on Carolina's upcoming success in the next few years as Duke flounders after losing their beloved JJ/Williams combo.
