Yeah--those injuries may have weakened them. At the same time, they've lost

once since mid-February (on the road at Memphis).

I know that the committee uses the quad system heavily. That's the only way to justify the 5 seed--even with the injuries. Even that judgment is incredibly suspect: they've got 5 losses on the season, 4 to tournament teams and 1 to a bubble team.

Wouldn't surprise me if Rat Face rides off into the sunset...... -- Snape 03/25/2022 01:02AM

AR is a tough matchup for them, aggressive, smothering defense like us -- Vienna_Hokie 03/25/2022 11:59AM

The prospects of him going out a champ got much better last night -- DarylS 03/25/2022 10:52AM

Wouldn't surprise me either - no world beaters left in the field. -- Walkin` Willie 03/25/2022 10:42AM

It would be fitting to end his Hall-of-Fame career w/ another championship. ** -- YBYSAIAHokie 03/25/2022 10:34AM

If it is Duke vs UNC in the final 4 (which CBS would love) -- HokieAl 03/25/2022 08:23AM

Could have 3 of 4, probably won't, but could -- Vienna_Hokie 03/25/2022 12:09PM

Perfect...and further validates our ACC Title ** -- Tuckahokie 03/25/2022 09:30AM

I wouldn't rule out the U being able to take down the Holes again, they -- anotherdamnyankeehokie 03/25/2022 08:48AM

I would love to see it happen. -- hoosnowahokie 03/25/2022 08:47AM

Yeah,I think UNC's in beast mode -- `lag 03/25/2022 08:46AM

Yes. I thought for sure they were going to win the ACC Tournament. -- StressHokie 03/25/2022 09:37AM

That's what's great about the win, they were already in beast mode, beat -- `lag 03/25/2022 4:22PM

I have a severe dislike for UNC and came to like Duke (K) because of that -- VTCALS72 03/25/2022 08:45AM

Why? Why does anything in sports mean that much to you? ** -- NokieHokie 03/25/2022 09:25AM

Unc, (not all capitalized intentionally🤣)as an institution -- HOKIEGOBBLE 03/25/2022 09:57AM

My question was facetious... :) ** -- NokieHokie 03/25/2022 10:10AM

Well… -- HOKIEGOBBLE 03/25/2022 1:26PM

I was using his own question of someone else against him... :) ** -- NokieHokie 03/25/2022 1:28PM

Give them credit even though I’m not a Duke fan -- DCL 03/25/2022 08:01AM

The field has significantly weakened the past few hours -- hokierevisionist 03/25/2022 02:22AM

Has it? Houston was vastly underrated -- hoosnowahokie 03/25/2022 07:07AM

Even the NET had Houston as a 1 seed. Only the selection committee saw them -- HokieEngineer 03/25/2022 07:31AM

They were the biggest under-seeded team, and Wisc was the most over-seeded. ** -- MCL3 Hokie 03/25/2022 07:39AM

I'll go with UNC on that: an 8 seed? vs Houston's 5 seed. -- `lag 03/25/2022 08:53AM

They penalized them because of injuries -- Vippie1 03/25/2022 07:38AM

Yeah--those injuries may have weakened them. At the same time, they've lost -- HokieEngineer 03/25/2022 07:48AM

And I hate the term...eye test... -- Vippie1 03/25/2022 08:50AM

Same here……And we will have to hear about it hear about it -- accfootballrules 03/25/2022 01:55AM

Give me unc any day of the week over dook ** -- hokierevisionist 03/25/2022 02:22AM

UNCheat? No way. -- StressHokie 03/25/2022 09:36AM

Exactly the opposite for me -- VTCALS72 03/25/2022 08:50AM

The hate amongst those two blue bloods….amongst the fans…lol -- accfootballrules 03/25/2022 06:31AM

Personally, I’d love to see UNC & Duke in the final four & Duke win it all. -- Hoakie82 03/25/2022 06:46AM

Yeah--those injuries may have weakened them. At the same time, they've lost
