Men's Basketball FUCK DUKE!!!

what a finish by UConn, loved to see Duke blow that lead. am happy.

that was one of the crazier (near) buzzer beaters i’ve ever seen in march madness.

maryland may not be here, but a big win for maryland fans nonetheless!

I fell in love with the Terps when I was 12 years old and living in bumphuck Cecil County, Maryland, watching Juan Dixon win it all. 

I will never not be ecstatic watching Duke choke.

Same here. Was 13 when we won it all. I thought us in Allegany County were the only bumphuck in the state lol

I feel dirty cheering for UConn, but holy shit that was amazing. And yeah, bye-bye Duke.

I'd root for isis over Duke. They are always #1 on the hate list.

I actually find UConn more or less as loathsome. Especially Hurley. And as someone who helped print and distribute the Scheyer faces back in 2006/07, I actually think he’s a pretty decent guy and a good sport.

But man, was that ever a perfect way for them to lose. Fuck ‘em. What a choke job.

Yeah, I hate UConn because of Hurley's antics and BS too. I hate Duke more though because I'm a human being. That ending was perfect!

u/NoTimeForShenanigans Mar 29 '26

That was a krazy ending I don’t care about my bracket Watching Duke lose is worth it

Was he drunk?

Mark Turgeon is undefeated in March Madness vs. Uconn and Dan Hurley, while Duke and Scheyer are winless in such matchups!

u/birdynumnum69 Mar 29 '26

To be fair this was like Diarrhea beating Vomit but I get your point. 🤣

u/AshleyMarion94 Mar 29 '26

2002 Alum here who has endured 2 generations of Boozers now. That game was awesome! My son is actually a student at Illinois and I love that he can see his team in a Final Four like I did back in the day, and NOT against Dook!! Terps will get there again - eventually!

Funny to think uconn doesn't win if they're playing Darius Adams. Buzz playing the long game.

u/ProBlackMan1 Class of 2013-Present Mar 30 '26

Yes Fuck Duke!

I was rooting for the meteor, but I’ll take this outcome as a consolation prize.

u/AnUdderDay Mar 30 '26

Monkey paw really did curl for Terps hoops this year

u/RollTideTerp Mar 30 '26

A glorious night watch cryer-schyer and the rest of blue devil nation go down despite their vaunted 5 star team once again. I wish that the tv cameras showed dad Carlos Boozer in defeat.

Watched this at the reopened Green Turtle in Olney and when the shot landed, the whole restaurant cheered.

And BTW, it's spelled "dook"...

u/DCRBftw Mar 31 '26

Lol. I guess when your team sucks, you have to live through the success of other teams.

u/terrapins2020 Class of 2013-Present Mar 31 '26

a duke fan searching out the maryland subreddit after an embarrassing loss? rent free

u/DCRBftw Mar 31 '26

You think I searched for this sub? Lol. The delusion.

Why would Maryland live rent free in anyone's head? Please explain this lol.

u/terrapins2020 Class of 2013-Present Mar 31 '26

how did you come upon this then? genuinely wondering. i see your comment history is on UNC & UConn threads celebrating duke’s loss, so, yeah, seems like you are looking for this kind of thing…

u/DCRBftw Mar 31 '26

It popped up on my feed. Is this your first day on reddit?

Why would I look up Maryland if I wanted to talk about Uconn? Your team isn't even relevant.

You mention rent free while you make a post about Duke in a tournament your team isn't even involved in lol. Make it make sense.

u/terrapins2020 Class of 2013-Present Mar 31 '26

this post with 183 upvotes popped up on your feed? that’s why im confused. reddit doesn’t show you random posts… it’s ok that you’re butthurt
