This lack of calling **** on Edey and calling everything for Edey is getting really old. Luckily, he can get destroyed in the NBA next year.

He can do whatever he wants and foul is always called on other players

**** Purdue and its preferential treatment.

**** those biased announcers. Might as well of been wearing Purdue gear. Pathetic CBS!

 

[CycloneErik]

Never wear Orange late in the tournament.

Purdue delenda est!

Are there teams in the NBA that need a 7'4" statue that can't shoot from outside the lane? Seems like a limited market.

I can easily cheer for Duke and Uconn over Edey.

So…one each from the B1G, SEC, ACC, and BE. I guess that’s okay. Would have preferred a BigXII team in there, though.

I've accepted it wasn't Big 12's year for a deep run.

I'm not going to get into the whole "best conference" thing. Just because it has been top-notch for several years running, sometimes there's an off-season, and this was it.

Houston could certainly be here if they hadn't lost their best player.

Another Purdue game where the FT discrepancy is almost double

79-39 in the tournament by my count.

Since it’s so random, having one bad year in the last 5 tournaments sounds about right.

This will be the 4th Elite Eight game between 2 ACC teams:

1983: #6 NC State 63 #1 Virginia 62
2016: #10 Syracuse 68 #1 Virginia 62
2016: #1 North Carolina 88 #6 Notre Dame 74
2024: #4 Duke vs. #11 North Carolina State

Also, the first ever game between a #4 and #11 team.

He’s probably a second round pick.

Fun Fact: Virginia has been a #1 seed and played against an ACC team 3 times in the tournament (also 1981 Final Four against North Carolina). They are 0-3 in those games.

Vols fans on Twitter are calling him Foul Ming, haha.

He’s probably a second round pick.

Whatever NBA team drafts him will have 1,000,000,000+ new fans. He’s going in the first round.
