NCAA Championship Game: Florida Gators vs Houston Cougars

[Real Men Wear Green]

I don't follow college ball much so feel free to make a better thread. For now I figure there should be something.

Florida was the favorite coming into the tournament (at least I got that perception from ESPN) with a lot of talent(also a regurgitated talking point). Led by Walter Clayton Jr (reminds me of Derrick White, based on the games I've seen, which have only been in the tournament).

They will be facing a team that managed to come back from down 6 with around 32 seconds left vs assumed #1 pick Cooper Flagg and the Duke Blue Devils. Top scorer is L. J. Cryer. Confession: I don't know what the "L" or the "J' stand for.

Hey, I said this thread would be bad.

So who is winning?

I saw your post before the edit and thought you must've mistyped or something. Wouldn't have thought you assumed Duke won but not too surprised since they were up like 14 with 7 or 8mins to go which is easy to assume they did.

Yea it's one of those turned off and went to bed and wake up like woah. I was ishing w/ coffee and didn't check the news yet haha.

I was hoping Duke lost so much, so good for me. One of the craziest games in recent history imo.

Nah, Walter Clayton Jr is on a mission this season. Guy has been far and away the best player in the tournament. I was hoping for a Duke/Florida Final. I believe that would've been the best final. Florida seems to have too much firepower for Houston.

[Hey Yo]

Duke's 7'2 center had zero rebounds and 6pts which 4 were from FTA in 21mins. Not one single lob to the dude which seemed like they could get those at will most times in previous games.
