Hey, I was rooting for W but Duke played a great game. I know it stings, but you have to give credit where credit is due!

It seems to me it doesn't take a genius to see that SOMEBODY didn't want Kentucky to win! I've NEVER seen more unfair, biased total bullsh## calls in my life!
Im done watching college basketball!

First the Packers and now the Badgers. I was rooting for the latter but not the former. Maybe next year iron...

There were some bad calls and missed calls both ways. it's the reason i stopped watching basketball years ago... The refs are way too much a part of the game in basketball. the whole game I'm saying: that's a foul? or that's a charge? or that's not a charge? or that wasn't a foul? Seems very inconsistent.
Also, I'm trying to figure out the point of the replay they now have? WI-KY you see a guy pretty blatantly smack a guy in the face, no call. Last night you see a Duke guy hit the ball going out of bounds (his finger bends), nah, Duke ball. If you don't get the call right after replay there is no point in replay.

Nah. Refs called more ticky tacky fouls against Duke than against Wisconsin. The other close calls were a wash. I'm a Big Ten fan but am compelled to acknowledge that Duke won because it was the better team down the stretch.

or that wisconsin was called for a zillion fouls in the 2nd half despite leading the nation in lowest fouls/game. rules must've changed at halftime.

A zillion? That would be a wild exaggeration, right?
What is your point? Past performance is not a guaranty of future performance.
Every foul called against the Badgers in the second half looked sure like a foul to me. By contrast, at least 3 fouls called against Duke should have been no-calls, e.g. Kaminsky's shameless flop.
Get over it. The 3 keys to happiness:
1. Low overhead
2. Low expectations
3. Not caring too much how your team does

yes, because bo also coaches football. oh, and RW probably had no choice in the matter - it was all recruiting.
to suggest that UW is anything remotely similar to the dukes, kenfuckys, and NCs of the world is (insert some BS lawyer speak here).

Sorry Iron, I feel your pain. My 2 favorite teams got knocked out after the Elite 8 so I didn't have a dog in this fight. I only watched a few minutes of any of the Final 4 and Championship games. I've seen plenty enough Duke games to know how much favoritism they get from the refs. Every year at the end of the season I ponder giving up watching college basketball because it's just too frustrating. But come November I'm totally into it again. I guess I'll never learn.
