I think most of us realize it's rigged

[UKUGA]

even so, I'm not convinced that they won't let Gonzaga win Monday.

The key is getting Carolina into the game, in hopes that someone will watch.

The winner will be determined by Vegas, and they may want to stick it to all the folks who bet on UNC heading into the weekend.

 

[jarms24]

Agree ... Rigged

 

[Blue_2_the_bone]

Money talks. There's a reason Vegas always wins.

 

[jrpross]

Hope you're right. The yellow brick road UNC has followed to the championship has been nauseating.

Cattoyz: " Not it's not"

 

[BigBlueFanGA]

It's starting to remind me of professional boxing. I hate it being like this. The NCAA has ruined the sport.

 

[westerncat]

I did not watch the game tonight & I will not watch it Monday night. If the ratings are way down maybe it will help CBS and the NCAA to see we don't care. JMO

The fix was in guys. The NCAA desperately wants UNC* to win a title when they're "clean" so they can say "See, UNC* didn't need to cheat to win"

It's much better if you just block that guy.

But is this UNC team clean?

 

[SemperFiCat]

I don't believe it's "rigged", but given the NCAA over the past decade, I whole heartedly believe games can be "influenced".

 

[Fancatstik]

UNC going to win the whole thing. Done.

 

[UKUGA]

But is this UNC team clean?

 

[UKWildcatT]

You know I do...

The past few years, I've been lucky and gotten to help old Memphis guys with various projects. (I help on Austin Idols new podcast)

I talked to Lance's daughter to get him on twitter. He was nursing a back injury and told him the story about how he's one of my idols.

I went to my first card at the Louisville gardens on Aug 3, 1982. I didn't know how the loop worked, so I thought Lance and Dave would be there. My uncle told me Lance rarely came; that he stays in Memphis. I was only 9, but it bummed me out because I loved Lance, even that young

I told him and he said those kinds of stories mean everything to him; that it means the world for fans to think highly of him

I know it's a corny story, but Lance was like your best uncle that you loved seeing every week

(Now, to get him on Idol's podcast (wink) )

I about fainted when Nance actually brought up how the shadow of the academic scandal had influenced recruits. Of course Rafferty then came in behind him as the apologist for Rot, I meant Roy. No wait a minute, I meant Rot.

 

[nerdcat]

No it's not.

He also mentioned that dragging it out made everyone look bad (or said no one looked good).
So, he was also chiding the NCAA for its indecisiveness.

 

[Supafuzz75]

It's rigged.. Reason we'll not get another title for another decade or more..

 

[deplion]

I'm starting to believe it.

It's not rigged.

UNC is just a good team.

 

[SaguaroCat]

How did the NCAA make Oregon shoot 7-26 from 3 point line?

 

[Elliott Tim]

I'm starting to believe it.

Hope you're not serious. You're one of the greatest posters ever. Common sense has been your portion since you started on here.

 

[JasonS.]

Explain this one. UNC didn't win ATS tonight or against us.

 

[UKUGA]

So, they make more threes, UNC gets marched to the line more. It's not that hard.

Why didn't they call a foul on Meeks on that last rebound? Was that punishment for Oregon's poor perimeter shooting?

 

[UKUGA]

Explain this one. UNC didn't win ATS tonight or against us.

Wasn't the spread 2 points against us?
Vegas pays out nothing to either side.
Vegas wins.


A bunch of money reportedly went to UNC this weekend.
They don't cover. Vegas doesn't pay UNC bettors.
Vegas wins.

 

[Lovebaskelball]

So when did it start being rigged? Are our championships rigged or we were just better than the riggers?

I don't know. Maybe since back in the 50s when we were point shaving.

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

This tournament has been rigged since they gave North Carolina the 1 seed over us

 

[deplion]

Hope you're not serious. You're one of the greatest posters ever. Common sense has been your portion since you started on here.

What I actually want is full time referees that are graded each game by an independent body.

College basketball isn't fixed, but certain referees are badly biased and others are complete incompetents.

A product that generates billions of dollars shouldn't still be using part-time officials who are accountable to no one of consequence.

So tonight was rigged *against* UNC?

I don't think one can actually rig a cbb game. Too many moving parts.

But influence? Absolutely. There is absolutely outside influence

 

[SaguaroCat]

Ok. It's rigged. I guess Kentucky isn't the best program ever. The NCAA just rigged all those games we win. Man, I hope someone pulls the ring of Anthony Davis's finger since he didn't earn it. Why are we spending money on rupp renovation for this fake play acting.

 

[Blue_2_the_bone]

What about halftime spreads of the games? Also, I'm not saying the exact score is dictated. All that can happen is a game pushed a certain way. Can't control free throw makes and misses. Can't control shots. But you can influence the direction a game is pushed. Do you think the Vegas guys are just "That" good? Serious question.

 

[Cardsstink]

It's not rigged, human beings are just highly flawed animals known to make mistakes, so if you put three of them in black and white zebra outfits its going to be a trainreck most every time.

Show me in the rule book that winners have to shoot better than that to win???? I'm so tired of these bull sh*t excuses for bad officiating. Make it sound like a team has to be world beaters to beat the all mighty unbeatable UNCheatables...
