We avoided the inevitable Heel stomping thanks to the Noles'. However, if my bracket holds true (And Lord knows I'm due since my last 4,012 haven't) I have a Devil/Heel Final 4 matchup.
I love my Dookies but when it comes to money, I ain't totally stupid. I've got the Mountain Goats taking it all.
While it was not the only reason for the result of that Carolina/ FSU game in the ACC Tournament it was a perfect example of what happens when you miss too damn many free throws! I was throwing my arms up in disgust at each missed attempt knowing full well that my 'Mountain goats', as you call them, would need each one in that close game.
In the end they lost that game by three fucking points (yes, I'm a little bitter). Of course, it didn't help that Ty Lawson was out of the game with a sore toe.
There's a member on Carolina board I visit who pointed out that the Tarheels didn't have anything really to play for after clinching the top position in the ACC regular season and almost assuring a number 1 seed in the NCAA tournament...I'd disagree except for the actual playing in that game with FSU. Oh well.
Interesting that you have a Devil/ Heel Final Four matchup. I've decided not to put money on the games this year...there's been enough bad karma already, eh?
I really would have liked to have see Auburn go all the way in the SEC Tournament and get to the big dance.
