MBB: (8) Miami 87, North Carolina 61

So are we rooting for Carolina, so that a loss brings Miami back to the ACC pack, or are we rooting for Miami to run them out of the gym, like they did to us?

Might as well root for Miami, because UNC looks seriously outclassed. Why set yourself up for disappointment?

[JBDuke]

Here's an optimistic way to look at the game: either Carolina loses, or the team in front of Duke in the ACC standings loses. Neither is a bad outcome!

I think Sylvia Hatchell designed these Tar Heel uniforms.

Nah, even she has a better sense of style than that.

[Merlindevildog91]

So did they all change their last names to "Tar Heels" to make it easier for the tutors or to simplify the Swahili class seating chart? Or both?

[slower]

Hopefully, they will eventually realize that it MIGHT be a good idea to guard Hairston and Bullock from 3-point range.

Can't disagree with this. Although neither is a bad outcome, I still strongly prefer that Miami win. Beyond 9F 9F 9F, it's better that UNC, NCSt, UVa, maybe Md, lose, beat up each other. And also that Duke win all or most of its matchups with those teams, no guaranteed thing at all. Miami's schedule after today is pretty easy, except for their tough road game in CIS, so they're the likely 1-seed in the ACCT. I want Duke's competitors for the 2-seed to lose.

seeing as they're up 17 at halftime, I think they're doing just fine...

[Indoor66]

Can they both lose? It is 44-27 Miami - at the 1/2.

We are wearing the same style uniforms when we go to Maryland.

got to do something to prove we can rival underarmour in the "ugliest uniform" category

Yep. It was closer when I posted.

Nah, even she has a better sense of style than that.

Besides she buys her clothes off the rack at Talbots.

Our will not have "Tar Heels", nor will they be smurf blue, so no way ours will rival them for ugliest uniform.

...and I thought it was Rose's.

[JasonEvans]

Ummm, it is 5 minutes into the 2nd half and Miami has not shot a free throw.

Of course, neither has UNC.

WOW-- I can't recall a game where neither team shot a FT for this long. This is insane!

miami is 4-4 on the game...


unless you're talking about just the second half, in which case, wisconsin and michigan went 8 minutes before either went to the line
