Gators won at all and they deserve it.
I might sound like an arsehole, but Duke was the best team this year.
Duke would’ve beat the gators.

Decent chance Dook would have choked at the end.

That's why the end of the Duke Houston game ended like it did. The e$ECpn team had to be protected.

So the SEC could win it for the first time in 18 years while playing on CBS? Quite a conspiracy there.
Nah, Flagg and company simply choked. Tight sphincters in Durham. It happens.

CBS doesn't stop eSECpn from paying the refs. There's too much money at stake. Sure, maybe they're just incompetent.
CBS probably would have rather had Duke in the final.

ESPN didn't pay the referees. That's just dumb. Plus it's not like basketball's where ESPN's making their money anyway. They clearly make their money off of football.

Right. And the SEC wasn't paying players for decades with greasy bags of money. I need to change how I think about college sports in this new era.

They took a 17 year break from paying them in this competition I guess so as not to appear too obvious. Them some dastardardly, sneaky scoundrels I tell ya!

The landscape has changed. Today is not the same as about 2022 or earlier. Is it gambling money, is it eSECpn pimpin their hoe until they get their conference the money and recruits they want? Whatever it is, it's different, it's seedy, and it's not going back.

Houston is a bad match up for everyone, tough, actually plays defense for 40 minutes and is athletic and well coached. All in all, the best team won since they beat the team that Duke lost too. It comes down to making plays, Florida made them against Houston and Duke didn't

Dook was the most talented team. Florida was the best team and by far the toughest.

Houston was robbed. The goal tending screwed call was a 5 point swing.
