NCAA Bracket
My bracket is looking terrible right now. I think the two number 2 seeds getting beat out in the second round by a number 15 seed hurt it the worst along with everyone elses bracket. I only have one team that has made it to the Final Four, and I have them to take it all. Kentucky is looking really good right now and walked all over Baylor on Sunday. I need Kentucky to win if I want to want to be even close to winning. I think this years tourney has been interesting with some upsets. To bad South Dakota didn't make it a few more rounds.
Duke Loses?
Duke didnt play like I expected them to, or for that matter like anyone expected them to. Duke took a loss in the second round of the tournament to a team that I'v never heard of. Lehigh beat them 75-70 in the second round hurting many brakets. Duke was the second number 2 seed to be beat out in the second round.
Duke had two players that scored 19 points, Austin Rivers, and Mason Plumlee. This wasnt enough though as they lost by five. Duke was just out-played. The stats didnt show any significant differences besides the turnovers. Duke had 13 to Lehighs 8 turnovers. Duke even out-rebounded Lehigh 34 to 42. In my opinion, Duke didnt have all that great of a season.

Tournament Time
Duke has made it to the tournament! This is my favorite time of the basketball season. I am filling out my brackets, but dont have Duke going very far. I have a feeling that Duke will not make it past the 3rd round and get beat out by Baylor. They haven't played yet this year, but Baylor has been playing well. Duke finished this year 20-4 and finished 7-2 in the ACC, for a total of 27-6. They lost to Ohio State, Temple, Florida State twice, Miami, and North Carolina. I'm filling out my bracket and have a few upsets. I don't think this year will have to many though. I'm ready for the tournament to start.

Duke Looses
Duke took a loss to North Carolina on Saturday with a score of 88 to 70. They were down almost the entire game and couldn't seem to come back. A loss by eighteen is unusual for Duke. That is not a good way to end the last regular season game. North Carolina had 5 players in double digits and Duke had 4. Duke was out rebounded by a big number wich hurt them alot. U.N.C. had a total of 45 rebounds to Duke's 28. This gives U.N.C. second chances at shots and on offense. Duke will start March Madness on Thursday. The games are TBA and all played at the Philips Arena in Atlanta, Ga. I think Duke will do well in the tournament, and hopefully they do.
