I don’t understand the hype of Zion vs tacko

Greatest physical specimen the games ever seen versus a 7 foot 6 center. What's not to understand?

Zion dunks the ball a lot and Tacko stops people from dunking a lot. It’s your prototypical unstoppable force vs immovable object matchup... among 2 very unique players.

So long as Tacko is allowed to play and doesn’t get in early foul trouble... it should be fun to watch.

I am afraid Tacko will get in foul trouble quick. Hopefully I am wrong

Tacko is gonna get punked.

Tacko and UCF do not do well when the game is called tight. Duke is going to get the calls. That will probably send UCF spiraling. Our only hope is that somehow 'let them play' refs who just woke up from a coma are assigned.

They say there's no such thing as a stupid question, but sometimes, there's a stupid question.

That was a complicated objective assessment by someone that actually understands common
sense, lol. It's hard to imagine why those that don't possess common understanding of basketball are scratching their heads.

It will be interesting to see how the refs call them. I presume Duke and Zion get all the calls.They might put Tacko in foul trouble in the first half of the first half.

Tacko already has two fouls on him and tip-off is 14 hours away. He'll be on the bench within the first 5 minutes of the game.

Damn these refs!

Tacko says Zion will not dunk on him.


Time of Zion’s first dunk on Tacko? ______


Over/Under on Zion’s dunks on Tacko is 3.

First half 17:40/ over

Tacko keeps his word, and no dunks occur on his watch.

If the refs have a "FAT WALLET" Tacko will be in foul trouble within 10 minutes!!!

First Zion dunk 5 minutes into the game with a foul on Tacko for a 3 point play!!!

Go Knights!

A win in this one would be huge for the AAC.....and UCF could claim another national championship. Oh, wait. They actually play it out in basketball.

So you are saying he fouls out in first 10 minutes?

Yup. Cheating refs cheat 24/7.
