Another weekend in college basketball went by, and like the Blue Devils we're jumping up and having a sword fight in the air while recapping this weekends games.
3) Duke 93 Maryland 84-The Dukies avoided the same fate that their brothers down tobacco road as they rallied in the second half to down Maryland. The Blue Devils outscored the terps 51-33 in the second half of this one, and were clearly excited as Gerald Henderson's man bump in the picture indicates (seriously that is like straight up all man touching there. They could have at least attempted to make it look like they were trying to chest bump).
Connecticut 68 8) Indiana 63- With two players suspended (they didn't steal lap tops this time) Connecticut went into Indiana and upset the top-10 Hoosiers. Jim Calhoun said it was one of his best victories as a coach, and it could be just what this team needs to jumpstart itself out of mediocrity.
9) Georgetown 58 West Virginia 57- Georgetown is boring, has looked sloppy, and seems to get luck...but they keep on winning. For the second game in a row, Jessie Sapp scored the final 5 points for the Hoyas in another come from behind victory. Patrick Ewing pulled his best impression of his father with his block/goaltend as time expired.
11) Wisconsin 56 Purdue 60- In a matchup of two of the whitest teams in college basketball, Purdue was able to pull it out and take claim to the Aryan trophy. It was a big win for Purdue who is now tied with Wisconsin for second place in the Big Ten.
What's that sound you're hearing? You guessed it. Dickie V is back, which can only mean one thing....lots of yelling and probably lots of tears. Some say it's a good thing for basketball but it isn't. We're sure he's probably a really good guy but between his terrible catch slogans, sounds that can only come from a dying horse, and don't get us started on his obsession with Duke. Seriously, did he mess up his vocal cords by yelling so much or blowing Coach K twice a week? Okay, maybe that wasn't fair but tonight is guaranteed to be a love fest. You're gonna have Nestler all over Vitale, Vitale all over Duke, Duke players all over eachother, and Vitale all over the ACC in general. It's gonna be a painful game to watch, more painful than the time ESPN broadcast the game on 5 channels showing every possible camera angle you could imagine. So while most people may be happy that Vitale is back, here at Understanding Lou we have room for only one senile former coach and ESPN analyst....
