Byrd is an elite-level coach, no doubt about it.

The game was gut wrenching live. Anyone in that building not a Duke fan was cheering for Belmont. Something I have never experienced before. Our guys played great. I'm proud of them and they should be proud of themselves.

Watch out for tournament thirsty players next year!

I have Duke losing to Xavier in the Sweet 16...but if Belmont would have pulled the upset and screwed up a little bit of my bracket........

it would have been soooooo worth it.

Congrats on a great game played. Wish I could have seen more of it. Got stuck with A&M/BYU. Was helping to get the final 8 minutes though.

Yeah...I went to the NCAA tournament game when ETSU played Cincy a few years ago. It's crazy to hear 20,000 fans screaming for your team.

The ASun was represented well this year in the regular season with some quality wins and in the tourney by Belmont. I knew this had a chance to be interesting. Damn Duke.

I'm sure you guys noticed the Duke bench during the final 10 minutes. All of the coaches looked like they were deer in the headlights. They were clearly rattled. I still am just in total disbelief that Belmont didn't win. Byrd's going to re-live calling that inbounds play for the rest of his life.

Nice try guys. I really thought you had it. I wish #30 would have held his ground and taken the charge. Oh well. Nice effort anyways.

Congrats on a great game. Sorry you came up short but you represented the league well.

I bet Duke knows who Blemont is now.

RE: #2 Duke vs. #15 Belmont
Congratulations to Belmont on your conference championship and representing the Atlantic Sun really well in the NCAA Tournament. It was an excellent season for your league, overall, and the only more fitting conclusion would have been finishing off Duke right then and there but, nonetheless, the Bruins effort will be talked about by basketball fans for quite some time to come.
