Duke opens this years tournament as a 12.5 point favorite over the 28-6 Vermont catamounts. The only like opponent I see is VT in which Vermont lost by 22.

Vermont is coached by John Becker in his 13th year as the head coach. He has made the tournament 6 times and has had a 20
Win seasons 12 times.

Vermont and coach Becker are an impressive team on paper BUT they do only rank 104 on kenpom and have failed to beat anyone of note.
It is the tourney and anything came happen so…

All that said I could put UConn all the way to the ship and win it all very easily.. I think Duke is solidly a sweet 16 team

I’m coming back to the Blue Devil State!

Greetings all, been a while. 2 years ago I moved down to the taint of Florida, although the entirety of Florida could be considered the taint of the USA. My significant other is in med school and she was doing her clinical rotations down here. But now, she’s matched in a program in NC and I am returning!

Few notes of what I’ve picked up down here. FSU might have the most delusional fanbase in the entire world. Their inflated sense of self worth knows no bounds. If you think they’re bad online, they’re worse in person. And they do not give 2 craps about any sport besides football. Awful people.

UF has the worst most disgusting fanbase in the nation. I wouldn’t wish going to one of their football games as a fan of the away team on my worst enemy. They said vile, abhorrent, despicable things that go well beyond the normal banter. Disgusting is the only way I can describe them.

USF, they’re UF but to a lesser extent. UCF is cool, their fans are generally ok.

Anyway, glad to be coming back, I hate Florida, all of the memes about this god awful state are true, and looking forward to getting out.

Opening round for Duke facing a nothing to lose Nc state team that just dismantled a Syracuse team that was playing for a potential tourney bid.. Keatts is likely gone barring a miracle and to get that miracle they have to next beat us..

After handling them a little over a week ago I expect us to win and we are currently a 9.5 point favorite. I think state could make it more interesting though for longer this time

Duke-80
State-72
