Duke's Out!!!
I've never been more conflicted before a tournament game than I was last night. Duke or Arizona? My two most hated teams in college basketball facing off, who was I to root for? In the end I just couldn't root for UA. They are my alma-mater's in-state rival. I have aunts, uncles and my older sister that all graduated from UA so they annoy me constantly which turned me off even more at a young age.
I also made a bet with my cousin. I gave him 7-1 odds on UA making the Final Four, so I wanted them out for that reason as well. But in the end I am still glad Duke was eliminated. So before the game it's like a lose-lose situation, but in the end I know that one of my most hated teams will have their season end. Oh by the way that kid Derrick Williams is for real. He was an absolute beast!
