Will Coach K win No. 5 for Duke?
Can Bo Ryan bring Wisconsin their second NCAA tourney title ever? This is as close a call as you can get. In fact, it’s a lot like this year’s Super Bowl. Two evenly matched teams with two great coaches and a truck load of name players.
And remember, that one came down to the last play. This one could do the same.
Many feel, as do I, that the Badgers have a very slight edge. Their two bigs, Frank Kaminsky and Sam Decker face up to the one monster on the Blue Devils, Jahlil Okafor. That right there gives Wisconsin a bit of a better chance.
Kentucky could not get the two 7 footers in foul trouble, can coach K?
Don’t forget this, Duke played Wisconsin on December 3rd and beat them at the Badgers home court 80-70. I think that matters a ton. Doubt on the part of the Badgers.
Duke is as smart a team as you can find, but the Badgers are right there with them. Coach K is the best field general of modern college basketball, no doubt. Plus the guard play of Duke is tops.
Will the win over Kentucky hurt the Badgers. Do they feel they already won this thing? Can they get up again for another huge challenge?
Remember, Wisconsin has had the toughest road to the title maybe ever, playing all THREE OF THE BEST TEAMS TO WIN IT IF THEY DO, Arizona, Kentucky and now Duke. Wow.
This is NOT a game to go out and bet big bucks on.
It’s just too tough to call.
But hey, I have to pick a winner and the Badgers are now a 1 point favorite.
If I could tease it, I’d take Duke and 5 but I’d have to do the over under on the total points. There is no other game to tie to this one because it’s the only game left.
I lean towards Wisconsin.
I like their two big guys and the fact they have more experience as players working together for a couple years. Duke is still loaded with first and second year guys. I’m scared of Coach K though. I also don’t like the win Duke had at the Badgers home in December. I think Wisconsin is a much better team now though.
So I like the Badgers in a tight game.
Dolla Ackbar shall win the day.
The Good Lord willing. Prai$e be to Dolla.

I said it was a tough call, not one I would bet the ranch on..like the Badgers will bet a bit on them, not a big one though..too tight.
I would love to talk sports with you Glazer at my Hyde Park home!
This thing is pretty much a crap shoot every March.
Proof? I finished — an ancient, shortish, not-played-basketball-since-junior-high-school white guy — this year’s ESPN bracket ranked around 43K, well within the 1% needed for the Maui vacation draw. Oh, and 20K worth of Best Buy stuff…should they stay in business that long.
Amusingly, I finished better than every single one of the ESPN analysts who submitted a bracket.
And I don’t know jack about basketball.
AGAIN….AND AGAIN…AND AGAIN…AND AGAIN…
despite all the pundits…glaze…the real experts……harley does his magic again!!!!!
DUKE WINS…
