00:00The team we expected to be a national championship front runner all season long and even before the
00:06big dance. That is the Duke Blue Devils and that is who Houston will see on Saturday night. Duke
00:12absolutely dismantling Alabama in the East Regional Final on Saturday evening in Newark, New Jersey.
00:18The Blue Devils blowing Alabama winning by 20, 85-65. Duke covers as a six and a half point
00:25pregame favorite. A pregame total of 174 and a half stays well under because of brilliant defense
00:33by Duke and a very off shooting night for Alabama that may be used up all of their three-point
00:38prowess setting that record of 25 made triples on Thursday night in the Sweet 16 against BYU.
00:46Yeah and by the way just as a side note keep in mind this Houston team a majority of this team
00:52was also there a year ago when Duke knocked them out in the Sweet 16 because they didn't have
00:57Jamal Sheed healthy and they lost 54-51. That's going to be an interesting motivating factor
01:04coming into it here but Duke is not the same team from a year ago either. This is a much different
01:10team, much more stacked, much more offensively efficient. This is a machine. That's basically
01:18what Duke is. They're long, they're athletic, the IQ Ben just watching them play against Alabama
01:27it's just unbelievable the basketball IQ that we're witnessing here and even though Cooper
01:33Flagg well we all agree is the number one pick in the NBA draft right if he wants to go
01:39even though he didn't have the best shooting night the way he was able to affect the game
01:44doing everything else from assists to defense to blocking to getting other guys involved
01:50this is a very very scary team. This looks and feels a lot like some of those Christian
01:56Laitner Hurley teams all the way back then for Duke purely dominant and just a cut above
02:03everyone else is what they look like.
