Less than 2 weeks until selection Sunday.
in the battle for the 4 seed I think Carolina has the tiebreaker and UL has ND and UVa this week while Carolina at Ga Tech and home duke.

I think we go 1-1 in our last 2 games and UNC isn't beating Duke. I think the last double bye is ours.
The greatest rivalry in American sports resumes tomorrow night. a win tomorrow for the Heels and a decent showing in the ACC Tourney could get them a 3 or 4 seed in the Tourney.
You don't really believe that do you?
I don't believe it, I know it. Nothing is close in CBB, maybe a few CFB ones are close and nothing in pro sports approaches it.
what is better? and please don't insult our intelligence by saying UK-UL.
Penalties and measures prescribed by the panel are below:
• Five years of probation from March 6, 2015 through March 5, 2020.
• Vacation of all wins in which ineligible men’s basketball students played in 2004-05, 2005-06, 2006-07, 2010-11 and 2011-12 and ineligible football students played in 2004-05, 2005-06 and 2006-07. The public decision contains additional details.
• Fine of $500 per contest played by ineligible students.
• The school must return to the NCAA all funds it has received to date through the former Big East Conference revenue sharing for its appearances in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.
• Suspension of the head basketball coach from the first nine conference games of 2015-16.
• Reduction of men’s basketball scholarships by three for the 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19 academic years. If the school has already executed scholarship offers for the 2015-16 year, the school may begin the four-year penalty with the 2016-17 year.
• Reduction in the number of permissible off-campus recruiters from four to two during June 1, 2015 through May 31, 2017.
• The panel also accepted the school’s self-imposed postseason ban for the 2014-15 season, but noted that self-imposition of penalties after the conclusion of infractions hearings does not influence the outcome.
• Additional self-imposed penalties can be found in the public decision.
hahahahahahahahahaha
there aren't any wine and cheese crowds at UNC-duke games. No one outside of Kentucky cares about UL-UK, it's buried in December. Not even the biggest game for UK in Dec as they usually play Carolina in Dec.
Carolina and duke are literally a few miles from each other, have dominated the best conference in basketball, have made a million FFs, Nat'l titles. The great players, coaches, etc..., historic venues. it doesn't get any better than Carolina vs. duke. I am a big Yankee fan and it's laughable to talk about the overblown rivalry w/ the Sox. it was great for a few years, Carolina-duke has consistently been the best rivalry in sports for 30-35 years.
