2. Well, you almost got your wish!
Too bad they weren't playing horseshoes! Close only counts there!

4. This year's UCONN team is a lot like the team of 2 years ago...
...lots and lots of talent, so much so that they just figure they can go out and play and win--they don't have to worry about the other team. For the most part, that's true, but it won't be in the tournament. They'll need to be focused to win it all.

That's kind of strange if you do.

8. As a CT Native, I like UCONN, but I loathe Duke...
...too many sportscasters and refs treat Duke like royalty, like their porgam is somehow more noble than others. Facts don't support it--their graduation rate isn't so hot, although UCONN's is abysmal. Whenever Duke's players get in trouble, it's always hushed up.

9. That's better.
I don't know many people that like UConn AND Duke. It's one or the other, imo.

10. True, there seems to have developed a rivalry over the recent
years, and UCONN seems to have the upper hand in it now!

15. I don't really like Notre Dame
football more so than basketball but still I hardly ever find myself rooting for ND.
