I’m totally expecting St Peters to lose by a lot today. But Duke/SPU WILL NEVER HAPPEN if the NCAA has anything to do with it. If you listen to the Dan Patrick Show, he’ll tell you: Cinderellas are cute but EVERYONE WANTS THE BLUE BLOODS in the Elite 8, Final Four.”

BTW, As big of a national story SPU has been, that show has all but ignored the Peacocks. Even Rich Eisen interviewed Shaheen Holloway last week.

I think SPU-Duke (even if you think that’s extremely unlikely) has an equal or greater audience than UNC-Duke.

Duke v North Carolina because they are elite basketball programs known nationwide.
