Hate to say it but I was pulling for the Dookies. It's always fun to see a 3 point buzzer beater. The fact that it knocked off the #1 team, at home, breaking a 70 game home winning streak, only adds to the thrill.

Does this mean UConn got beat?! And I missed it! ANy one got tape? I guess I'm gonna have to get cable...

Taurasi hit a jumper with less than 5 seconds to go to put UConn up 67-65.

Duke took the ball the length of the floor, without a time-out, and Jessica Foley hit a 3 at the buzzer to win it for Duke, 68-67.

If UConn had won, it would have been their 70th consecutive win at home.

Sounds like these women played a great game!

Reminds me though of this one ol' Veteran Boys Official...
He said he wouldn't watch a women's basketball game even if they played naked!

Geez...what a sexist.
