You knock off Kansas with a lottery pick player that may go top three and an all-time great coach in Bill Self.

And now you have, for my generation...

The most evil college basketball team in the world standing in your way.

Because I know for those that are older, it's North Carolina.

It's Dean Smith.

That's the school you look at as big evil.

But for my generation, for Sean's generation, even for your generation, Tiki, and you're kind of old.

It's Duke.

Yeah.

It's those pretty boy, rich, candy asses, as The Rock would say.

And so how cool is that?

And here's what's so cool about this matchup on Friday.

It's almost as if they predetermined, let's find a halfway point to have this battle.

Let's pick a line in the sand halfway between Durham, North Carolina and Jamaica, Queens.

And I was doing the math on it.

If you count the miles, if you count how long it takes to make the drive.

In fact, let's play a game.

How long does it take?
