Indeed, Slissy, damn Brighton! 12 minutes of injury time, three red cards. Really uncharacteristic of either team, this was a hedged game for me. Picked Palace for Super Jackpot (and won). Had Mateta in my FPL, but needed Brighton to secure me BSFL. In the end, everything worked out but Strongkored in 1st place? He can afford to lose one game too with that massive GD.
That sudden drought from Duke killed my chances for Q9 and I can't believe they lost against Houston while leading by several possessions throughout the game.
Congrats on the win @buwaytress. We almost made a solid recovery in the second half, but wasn't enough to get anything out of it.
Thank you! It was a really good attempt at a fightback from you, and if I'm honest, I thought this would be a draw -- I don't know NCAA and I don't know anything about US sports if I had to kill for but the last thing I did last night after noting the Palace win was to check fresh odds on this match and Duke were 14/10 to win. And just from 5 players alone, the over/under points from each were 70. I don't know how substitutions work but I remember thinking, surely the subs score at least 6...
As it turned out, Duke neither won nor score over 75, and I gain this narrow win.
