Remind me some of the Cardiac Pack in '83. We definitely have the cardiac part down.

With all due respect... nope.

Unless we figure out how to get better quickly we aren't winning the whole thing. I'm obviously happy we're advancing but we should be thumping these scrub teams.

The quality of our opponents skyrockets from this point on, and this level of play ain't gonna get it done.

We were up 6 points playing a fantastic 2nd half and the refs literally kept VT breathing. We got F’d. That last tip in should of never mattered. Period.

We did play much better in the second half. We were up 7 late. We need to come out of the gate with the same sense of urgency that we come out of the halftime locker room with.

Is there a reason they didn't review that last ball out of bounds? Thought RJ saved it.

I'm all for destiny, if it doesn't kill me first!

With Robinson, VT is absolutely a top 15 team, maybe better.

They earned a 4 seed without him. With him they are a 2 or 3 seed. They are really good man. They space the floor well, they have a beast in the middle that finds every loose ball and a stud playmaking point guard. I don’t know if they are as good as Mich St, but they are damn good.

Please disregard what I said earlier, I'm an idiot.

That Coach K, and our team, could find out minutes before the start of the game that Cam couldn't go, when he obviously would have been an integral part of the game plan... that we could win a game like this with these circumstances is remarkable.

So to summarize... yes we're a team of destiny!!

We all get frustrated. I don’t recall what you said but trust me, the gameday thread has far worse. It’s embarrassing seeing some of those comments every single game. How quickly we turn on our guys is embarrassing, flat out embarrassing. But cheers man, we are going to the elite 8.

I really hope Tre’s confidence sky rockets after tonight and carries over to Sunday. What a weapon he becomes and how much that would help Zion if they can’t double all the time.

I can’t think of the last time the media actually said Duke would beat MSU. We seem to always beat them though. They can’t beat us!!!! Coach K has mind control over them

I think we can turn them over, which opens things up a lot. Vtech is elite at moving the ball and getting open looks, and got endless second chances. That was a huge hurdle. I feel good about mich st,

If we win every game on a rim-out to end regulation by our opponents all the way to the national championship game then yes lol

We have to play well enough during the other 39 minutes and 50 seconds to even be in a position to win the game on a rim-out by our opponents. Team of destiny or Great team playing against other great teams that play great. Great!
