No lie....Both teams were so evenly matched....It was such a great game...I mean you can't say anything bad about any team....The greatest game possibly played.

it would have been a better story if butler won. shot if Butler one, it could have turned into a movie.

Duke won! This was the best National championship game ever. The battle of the 2 private universities. 2 similar coaches, one 30 years younger, 2 similar teams with heart and hustle. Both teams were in the top 10 all season. Won their seasons, conference championship, and all the way through to the championship game. I was at the Final 4. This was the Game for all ages, thus far. At Lucas Oil Stadium, there were about 7000 Duke fans, and 70000 Butler (Indiana) fans.

@serbfree

don't change the subject. the fact of the matter is that it's black dominated so my point was correct.
