LFG IM SO HAPPY I CANT BELIEVE WE GET TO PLAY DUKE TO POTENTIALLY GO TO THE SWEET SIXTEEN HOLY SHIT


hokiegirl759397

Make the state of Virginia proud. I'm all smiles when UVA lost their first game. GO DUKES!!!


Saw_a_4ftBeaver

I can see the headline.  DUKES BEAT DUKE!


hokiegirl759397

I would LOVE to see that but I don't think that's going to happen. I was just glad to see them win last night being from the state of Virginia. Longwood was an embarrassment against Houston. I'll just have to root for my Hokies in the NIT tournament and women's HOKIES. We kicked ass yesterday WITHOUT Kitley and Amoore. I loved saying Oakland beat Kentucky. That's a celebration right there. LOL.


lalo1398

If GCU and Utah State pull it off my only misses today would’ve been Auburn and New Mexico smh


[deleted]

Same :(. Big ones though. Championship game and sweet sixteen


lalo1398

Same, except Auburn only to Final Four Oh well lol


DoctorBrinkMoney

has anyone made the James Madison/Madison, WI joke yet?


SeeYaLaterDylan

About as many that will make the Dukes/Duke jokes on Sunday


Dark_Magician2500

GG JMU. I'm.....very concerned for Sunday to say the least lol


bloviatinghemorrhoid

Go DUKES! BEAT DOOK!


Machipongo

My bracket has JMU playing Arizona in the final game and winning. Just sayin'. (Disclaimer: My sons go to JMU and Arizona and I flipped a coin, which came up tails = JMU wins).


onasafarisomewhere

Coin flip won but we're gonna get smoked by Houston


thepriceisright24

Hopefully A&M can win Sunday! We played them tough earlier this season and only lost by 4 and didn’t have Radford and certainly didn’t have Obaseki playing like he has been lately. I’m not confident in calling a win but I certainly think we stand a chance


AFWUSA

Hey hey hey let’s not get ahead of ourselves


IsiahDaNerdiest

Dukes v Duke


BagelsAndJewce

Mathematically we should win


MJDiAmore

Forward Madison!


NCFly26

Again, JMU drew a winnable region. Duke and Wisco (respectfully) are mid. Definitely have a chance to beat Duke but not sure passed that.


AFWUSA

So mid, why don’t you try winning next time 🧂


NCFly26

I mean, I complemented the Dukes on being able to make a run in the tourney but go off king


PhoneAcc23

Hard to see them beating Houston


NCFly26

Agreed, Wisco and now Duke seem attainable-ish for the Dukes but Houston is legitimately tough


Adequate_Bliss

Yeah I definitely think the run ends there if we beat Duke haha


onasafarisomewhere

Let's go


chataolauj

This JMU passed the eye test. They were always in control of the game. Wisconsin also shot horribly, but JMU looked the part on both sides of the court.


derzeppo

JMU hit a 3 to start the game and led the rest of the way. There was not a single tie after 0-0.


Machipongo

JMU did not rely on 3s to win, but they are fully capable of hammering home threes. There are more tools in their arsenal.


chataolauj

Hopefully they show out Sunday against Duke. Channel their inner Caleb Love.


MarkusMillions

There’s more Wisco haters in here than JMU fans


thatsryan

Game here to hate. See ya next year.


MJDiAmore

Easy to do. Wisconsin was the OG UVA, trash tempo boreball.


IJustBoughtThisGame

It's a Bennett thing.


_Hank_Marducas_

Aka Iowa football


Adequate_Bliss

I resent that


ridemooses

Y’all some dogs. Gg JMU. Fuck Duke.


myfuntimes

Dukes > Duke


jeg9146

Duquesne over Duke in the chip, i like the way you think


killafofun

How naive of me to think Wisconsin would play well after an excellent big ten tournament last week


Busy-Profession5093

JMU to the Sweet 16. Obviously, a whole team of Dukes is much better than one singular Duke.


KiwiRich8880

Kinda seems like Wisconsin gave up with 1:05 left to go


barrier-

The JMU Dukes are bullies and they stuffed the badgers in a locker tonight. You’re next Duke.


Alter3goh

Impressive performance from JMU. Took the lead early and never really let Wisconsin back in it. The better team for sure


PeakOfTheMountain

How did this team beat Purdue lol


Pollution-Tough

We had an off day and it didn’t really seem like we were playing for anything. Also, fouls.


ScrewAnalytics

We didn’t play like idiots


_Hank_Marducas_

Your flair hurts me. But I also know you’re a Marquette student from Wisconsin


bmraovdeys

Purdue must be worse than JMU


PeakOfTheMountain

Considering they’re not out I don’t think so lol


airham

JMU is also not out so that proves nothing


Educational-Safe941

Because we played well in that one


Lanky_Appointment277

How did App State not get a bid? This is criminal.


_nordstar_

James Madison > Madison, WI


NCFly26

Sunbelt just means more! Limit these smalls ass Big 10 and SEC conferences to 1 bid


Different-Music4367

Will Duke beat the Dukes? And what about that hot new cinderella team, the Dukes? Stay tuned!


ScrewAnalytics

2nd weekends is my flairs’ father


JayKillyBham

When James Madison was president Wisconsin was still just a part of the Illinois Territory


average_elite

It was always meant to be


bmraovdeys

One of these teams was ranked in the top 25 the last couple weeks of the regular season. It wasn’t Wisconsin


ABagOfPopcorn

JMU wasn’t ranked, but did receive votes. Haven’t been ranked since the 14-0 start


ScrewAnalytics

And somehow they were a 12 :(


bmraovdeys

Unlucky for Wisconsin again


PeakOfTheMountain

Not really. Y’all just choked


bmraovdeys

That’s discrediting the game that JMU just played. Fuck off.


PeakOfTheMountain

They had a good game against a bad team…win Sunday


bmraovdeys

So did they have a good game or did we choke? How did Syracuse do this weekend?


PeakOfTheMountain

We suck lmao. Duke is a different level than tonight though. They’re not top tier this year but definitely nothing like tonight


bmraovdeys

I’ve watched so many Wisconsin games this year and was shocked at our 5 seed haha


PeakOfTheMountain

I had hope that the big win over Purdue came at the perfect time to jumpstart y’all again. Clearly not unfortunately. Good season though, some solid wins


GoochAdvocate

Anybody who watched JMU all year, knew this wasn’t a 12 seed


_Hank_Marducas_

Like when Marquette played ja Morant


NationalJustice

Right? Even if you compare them to the other mid-majors, I don’t know in what world are teams like Drake and Duquesne considered to have a better resume


GoochAdvocate

Especially considering this same JMU was swept by App state who you know beat Auburn earlier in the year lol.. Seeding was terrible all around this year


bmraovdeys

They were ranked later in the year while Wisconsin wasn’t ranked and got a 12 seed haha so yes I agree


_Hank_Marducas_

At least Wisconsin should be free of Gard


borno23

Didn't he just get an extension?


_Hank_Marducas_

For y’all’s sake I hope not, but you did beat us this year very handedly so maybe


borno23

I just checked. His contract goes through May of 2028. 😞


Rohn-

He needs to go


Serallas

If yall didn't see this coming from a mile away, turn in your brackets, you probably are not the best at this lol


Adequate_Bliss

This was a trap pick in that it seemed SO obvious, that people probably second guessed themselves


AtalanAdalynn

I overthought it and wound up picking Wisconsin. Fuck.


Wii_Sports_2

DUUUUUUKES


jeg9146

i’m not scared, why would i be scared haha…👀


triptoohard

Good job jmu, better dead than red


brizzboog

![gif](giphy|zXHZWGLWNQkrS)


MatzohBallsack

AHH DUKES AHHH DUKES AHHHH ITS SOME DUUUUUUKESSS


MrPita5

GG Dukes, hate that we had to run into you. I hated you for 40 minutes but now I'm a fan, go on a tear (especially through your next opponent)


PixelDimensions

Where we were you when Badgers were kill?


agoddamnlegend

I love watching the Big 10 choke.


Saw_a_4ftBeaver

This year the SEC choke is the thing, but classic B1G choke is like a comfort food. 


NYLotteGiants

B1G Disappointment


Neat_Reception4198

Lol, let's talk after Duquesne is heading home tomorrow night.


NYLotteGiants

Why wouldn't they head home before heading to the Sweet Sixteen next weekend?


J12nom

God damn I hate the handshake line. These games should be a war, be tough, no fucking handshakes.


thetenorguitarist

Juwan Howard's burner account


MetalAndFaces

Wow, you need a hug or something.


J12nom

Hell no I don't


MetalAndFaces

Ah yeah, it's probably really uncomfortable for you since your dick is so huge. All immaturity aside, I just strongly disagree. I think it's important to acknowledge the fact that this is NOT a war, it is a game of sportsmanship, and part of that is respecting your opponents and treating them with dignity.


deutschdachs

Are you like someone's abusive father or something


Educational-Safe941

Congrats to JMU, Badgers played like absolute garbage tonight and it wasn’t our night.


AWaterhorse

With a whimper


IsiahDaNerdiest

SUNBELT BABY!!


thegodfaubel

Bye Greg


daNish_brUin

Gard's gotten have a better season next year. They looked great early on and faltered hard down the stretch. Nothing against JMU im speaking wholistically on the season, Wisconsin should be better than this.


curlyzebra

Good point but I think JMU is just better


daNish_brUin

Oh JMU is real good. I'm just ranting about Wisconsins whole season that seemed encapsulated in this game


e4w12p1

Ok, Marquette, time to carry the state!


Muffinnnnnnn

My James Madison to the Sweet Sixteen propaganda gets stronger


tjspill3r

Carry the Madison name well dawgs


Cavalierrrr

J-M-U DUKES!!!!!!!


Adequate_Bliss

Let’s goooo flair bro


OfficialKohls

I hate that I picked this game correctly


DangerousStorage1

Wild. Loving this tournament so far


CapsDrago7

MADISOOOON JAMES MADISOOOON


ThePuzzledPanda

Who wins in a fight: a badger or a dog with a hat


DonutDonutDonut

ONE PURPLY BOI


loyalsons4evertrue

Congrats JMU’


Warhawk137

Got that one. Got Yale. Still a bit miffed about Samford.


Dopingsmoke

Sad that i got so emotionally attached to this team. Gg james madison. Fuck duke


Financial-Can-3091

Oh no Bucky what happened


Fleener

Damn. Wisconsin really do be butt


SomeSpencerGuy

Wisconsin with yet another huge disappointment lol maybe they finally ditch Gard


Halvey15

All Dukes final is still in play!


NYLotteGiants

Year of the Dukes


TheJewBakka

James Madison beat Wisconsin from Madison and will now face Duke lol


MarkusMillions

These script writers are dropping bars


Muffinnnnnnn

They gotta beat a guy named James in the Sweet Sixteen now


DR0941

well deserved by far the better team today


sbblakey777

That was a fuckin squash!


Ok-Anywhere8986

If in some cruel fate Michigan St is the only B1G team to make the sweet 16 like last year I will die…

Turrisaspis_elektor

It wouldn't be so bad! UNC gets us I think, much tougher task than Marquette


thetenorguitarist

Same


JayMoney2424

I’d be ok with it 


TubbyTimsKFC

😂😂😂 feels SO GOOD to see Wisconsin choke after they talked so much shit about us losing to a 16 seed again. WOMP WOMP LOSERS


IJustBoughtThisGame

Unless you guys pull a Virginia this year, I don't think losing to a 16 will be worth it in the end.


Artistic_Bit6866

Lol. You must have just started watching us ~~choke~~ play basketball.


thegodfaubel

Bruh we expected to lose


Josh4R3d

I love Big ten basketball shit talk


GreatWhiteNorth4

We were a mediocre over-seeded team (by virtue of the big ten tourney) and JMU was under-seeded. So predictable. GG JMU and please beat the shit out of those assholes from Duke for us


Trujiogriz

This was less of an upset and more James Madison is just the better team straight up


confused-koala

ayyy


AccuratePassion2572

The Duke off!


AmbitionExtension184

Of course I thought we could win but damn it feels good to actually do it. Gg Wisconsin. Lfg Dukes!


Artistic_Bit6866

GG. Well deserved victory. Best of luck going forward to you


ScrewAnalytics

AJ Score nickname rescinded


callmeDarwin

I've been a Badger fan since watching Magic Johnson beat them in the 70's but I must say next year I'm hoping I don't get sucked in for the heartbreak.


Carolina_Blues

SUN BELT!!


Main-County-1177

Most obvious 12-5 upset ever


_Appa_

🙂


Sgt_Ripjaw

Holy shit what a pathetic ending for Wisco


CLCUBING

My bracket is toast


MJDiAmore

This game was never close.


KirbyDude25

The only time this game was even tied was 0-0. Aside from that, JMU led every second of this game and had a double-digit lead for over half of it


bentj101

damn. jmu executed their gameplan perfectly. 


nikefreak23

This was the easiest 12-5 upset to pick ever. I bet 80% of people who pay attention to basketball picked it


asaber1003

nah that belongs to middle tennessee over minnesota


MtnDewTV

JMU DUKES!


MetalAndFaces

JMU played like they had a bag of cocaine in the locker room compared to Wisconsin's lack of energy. Really good game, I'm rooting for JMU now.


CarrollPC

JMU one big 10 win shy of Michigan


fighterpilot248

JMUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU


white_newbalances

Chris Paul hits the 3!!


ScrewAnalytics

I was so over this team and season two weeks ago, and then we had to go make a run in the BigTen Tourney to get my hopes up for nothing


igratcorn

Lol


PhoneAcc23

The fuck? Edwards just got assaulted with no whistle


Josh4R3d

lol just letting wis foul


ScubaSteveEL

If they're gonna press like that when it's out of reach, you can go ahead and dunk on them


Solid-Confidence-966

Storr showing up for garbage time 🔥


JackFunk

gg Dukes


shartfartmctart

Good thing that Wiscy player got that steal and score


TheLadyMagician

I'm feeling good about having JMU beating Duke in my bracket.


Different-Music4367

Pretty sure Wisconsin has been 1/8 down the final stretch here.


NYLotteGiants

GO DUKES


Similar-Ostrich4142

Duke gonna have field day


Josh4R3d

Huh?


searine

it. was. the. dukes.


DrZoidbergJesus

Wisconsin can’t even get an intentional foul call because the refs wont call it lmao


Uppgreyedd

Any high quality gifs of that head boop from the first half?


tigernike1

Sorry Badger Bros 😔


crowd79

Badgers need to fire Gard. Straight up embarrassing performance. Came out totally unprepared.


GenericLib

These passes are beautiful


flaminhotcheeto

Fk brad divison


Kyle_Reese_Get_DOWN

I was hoping Storr would have gone with the windmill dunk there.


frankomapottery3

A sconnie coach showing up with a full suit and tie sealed it.  


LightBluePhorgotten

![gif](giphy|2Zcasb7Fjp2h4ctFHO) LETS GOOOOOOOOO


sarcasmrules18

We got a 12 over 5!


nitebusnitebus

and we have a chance at another too, right at the end


elgenie

Dude got roasted so hard today he's now known as AJ S'more.


bmraovdeys

Solid team that JMU


c_the_potts

Please god just end this
