MBB: Duke vs. Florida (Sun, 11/26, 10:30pm, ESPN) Pre-Game and In-Game Thread

I'd also like to point out that this is an Eastern Time Zone inconvenience. More than half the US population lives outside the Eastern Time Zone, and a majority of teams in this tournament come from outside the Eastern Time Zone too. The game starts at 7:30 pm local time at the venue, which is quite a reasonable time for a Sunday sporting event. For many US service members serving overseas, from Iraq to Afghanistan to Korea and Japan, the game will be broadcast live during daytime hours.

It's an inconvenience for the central time zone also. Don't be so provincial.

Cheats look like absolute poo so far!!

You mean Luke Maye isn't the second coming of the Bird?

Watching UNC score 23 in a half is keeping me awake. Or, "woke."

I had some of whatever Bill Walton is having, and I'm good to go.

If Izzo wins this game, he might decide to wear that hoodie for the rest of the season. I sure hope he does! Kind of a Hogwarts vibe going on there...

This is the first time I have listened to one of his games this season... the man is from another planet. I literally had no earthly idea what he was talking about at one point during the first half.

MSU is starting to com unglued like they always do against the heels.

That's weird because I am watching Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix waiting for the Duke game to start.

Anybody think Scheyer and Nate are at the coaching tables and laughing on the inside at this game?

[Dr. Rosenrosen]

Do we have to listen to walton’s stream of consciousness during our game as well?

[chrishoke]

LOL. Coach K's wife and daughter are sitting right behind the heel bench.

[DukeDevil]

Can someone post the attempted transition play by the cheats at 12 minutes in the second half with "yakety sax" overlaid on audio?

Best Walton line of the night (so far): "At least the Tar Heels have their beautiful State to fall back on."

[MrPoon]

33pts with 9mins to go. UNCh looks way out classed. MSU keeps turning the ball over or this would be much worse. MSU out rebounding them by 14.
Making our MSU win look really good... mostly without Bagley!

Pretty sure we have Bilas and Schulman

This game is tame compared to the uconn/arkansas game earlier. he didn't even know he was calling this game tonight.

Am I the only one who finds the new UNC uniforms to be unusually ugly? I truly can't even stand to watch their games just because of those putrid new uniforms!
