I like this model: Dominate and advance, Baby!

Ok, so the headlines:

Tyrese is playing like a first round pick.

Foul trouble and eye pokes only make Cooper angry. And you won’t like him when he’s angry.

Pat has arrived fully formed about 9 months earlier than anyone expected.

Wooooo boy!

But how’s this for a subplot: Caleb was getting legit 6th/7th man minutes. Obviously much better in the first half than second. But if you put money on that three weeks ago you would’ve gotten NUTS odds. His resurrection is going to pay dividends…

Also, Mason getting some shots to drop is also going to be important come next weekend.

All time heater for Rese. Save some of those for the Sweet 16!

For the record I get credit for the title

Tough seeing Roach in tears. But other than that, a pretty darn awesome day.

My heart goes out to jeremy. I hate that this had to be at his expense.

The commentators wondered what would happen if we found ourselves in a close game. Glad they're still wondering.

Yeah, he put his head on Scheyer's shoulder in the handshake line. Hurts that it had to be Duke to end his career.

Tyrese reminding me of the Alaskan Assassin right now.

So you’re saying… The Aussie Assassin ?!

March Madness will have the live postgame press conferences here.

Great game. Feel terrible for Jeremy.

Sweet moment between Jon and Roach it looked like, camera cut away was hoping to see more but still looked like a big hug.

 

[J4Kop99]

Beatdown. That was impressive work. Duke displayed a great composed-aggression all game.

Proctor.

Dang

 

[Lurkingdukedog]

Wow! We have a pretty good team!

 

[OldPhiKap]

Mod fight!

You should see those two fighting over the last pudding pop in the freezer. Nasty dirty gritty.

I think it may have something to do with the matchup, with Baylor playing 3 small guards in all of their lineups. But Caleb's played well. He's not trying to do too much and is moving the ball well, getting his shots in the flow of the offense.
