Prepare yourself

If Duke plays defense the way they've been playing all tournament, they'll win. I would favor Duke. Maybe Okafor misses a ton of free throws.

For some reason, I don't think Wisconsin can continue this unreal shooting.
3 certainties in life:

Death
Taxes
Sjung getting a chubby over Duke winning.


Is Jung the longest running dookie ever to post on THR? I can't think of another and I have been on here since about 2003.
 
you guys can spit out facts about both team's run to monday night all you want...yes, duke had the easier road and lately it seems like that's always been the case...2010 was pretty easy as well and wisconsin is better than butler.

however, i cannot overlook the fact that how they acted after and portrayed beforehand, that the kentucky game was the circled when the brackets were released...they've played great to get to this point...i think duke provides different challenges and they are coached pretty well themselves.

as much as i hate it, i think duke is better and will show it monday...happy to be wrong though.

KenPom has this game 70-69 Wisky winning it . . . so, I'd take the under.
 
I say dook by 12 points ... wisky celebrated the win too much .... dook will light them up with the 3 ball ... dook already beaten the wisky boys once this yr ... Hope I eat crow just don't think wisky has any thing left iin the tank !

They beat the perennial favorite to win and undefeated team. I would celebrate as well. They lost in the Final Four last year, they know what's at stake.

In '91, when Dook beat UNLV, many people said that Dook would lose the championship game because they spent all their excitement and energy in beating the allegedly invincible Runnin Rebels.
 
Just seems as if Wisconsin is sort of destined for this thing to work out for them. Sure they celebrated last night, but that was eerily similar to the celebration Duke had in beating UNLV years ago. And they got their feet back on the ground for Monday night. But I will give Duke their props. They do have the confidence from beating Wisconsin early in the season, and have really come on as a team as the season went on. But I probably won't even watch most of it. Once UNC loses my interest seems to fade quickly.
 
I'm 95% sure Duke will win. They will successfully push the tempo and unlike the preceding games,Wisconsin will get cold.
 
Executive Summary of the "Prepare Yourself" thread on THR:

Wisky vs. The Refs...

Duke's talent means nothing in this game.

Wisconsin beat UNC, which means they're really tough. (Duke did X2 though so...hmmm..yeah...THE REFS!).

The refs.

Duke played cupcakes to get here, Wisky played US!

The refs.

Meeks>Okafor

The refs.

Coach K sold his soul to the devil.

The refs.

----------

Great stuff, enjoy the game!
 
Just another doochie bag... go work on a cheer sheet and suck down some more of that kool aid from your Jm Jones coach, one of the most loathed individuals in all of sports

Wiscy by ten


Go Badgers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Ky boards are in meltdown as is twitterverse with their claims of an officiating conspiracy. For chrissakes lets quit going there as well. The ncaa, and or the officials do not have a directive on which team needs to win. If u wanna say one style of officiating favors one team then fine. But there is no conspiracy for or against any team. So just stop it already. Or convert to ky fan where such stupidity is encouraged.

This guy gets it.
 
I'm 95% sure Dook won't shot 65% from the field as they did in Madison months ago.
I'm taking Wisconsin.

I love it. Duke is in the championship game and most duke fans still can't stop thinking about us, Big Brother.

Ban this idiot please before he embarrasses himself and duke fans everywhere even more than he has.

Obviously, he is not. Like Bobby Hurley and Jason Williams, Tyus Jones is a truly talented Dook PG who leads every minute he is on the floor and, as if that were not enough, can beat good teams by scoring.

Now, I have to think about Jones returning (he needs to, to get stronger and prove to the NBA he can win without Okafor) and Allen stepping up as he did last night. Jones and Allen playing as they did last night could be the best back court pair in the ACC next season.

No way does Tyus Jones stay another year.

And the overreaction starts. Please...Grayson Allen had a horseshoe up his ass last night. He won't make 3rd team All-ACC next year.
 
Grayson will make FIRST team All ACC ....if he's allowed to use his left arm to push off on every drive to the basket.

And the overexaggeration starts. Allen has drastically improved since Sillyman got dropped. If he and Jones are to return, they will be the best back court in the nation. There's not a tandem i can think of that would be as good.

Jones is not coming back.

However, Grayson Allen and Luke Kennard will be 2 of the best wing tandems in the conference next year . .
