Twitter Is Going Nuts Over Tomorrow’s Yale – Duke Matchup
Duke and Yale’s basketball teams have a lot in common. They’re both almost universally despised (especially after yesterday – thanks, Baylor) and they’re also full of, shall we say, “guys who shoot threes.” Pair that with being known for their academics and absolutely batshit tuition costs, and you’re working with a total Twitter free-for-all. Sporting News compiled a great lineup of tweets and we’re bringing them to you.
Should Duke-Yale end in a tie, following will decide winner
1. BMW sprint to nearest J Crew
2. Windsor knot race
3. Sudden death chess match— Will Brinson (@WillBrinson) March 17, 2016
BMW Sprints are definitely a TFM.
Yale will meet Duke in Providence, which is the whitest thing I've ever typed.

Sounds like a solid networking opportunity to me.

Yeah, shove that up your “Annus of the Former World” McPhee. Writers are such nerds right?
The best part about Yale winning is now Yale students can chant "Safety School" at Duke.
— Dave Zeitlin (@DaveZeitlin) March 17, 2016
Yale will chant this until Duke fans make the arena a very Unsafe Space.
Only by going up against Grayson Allen could a Yalie named “Makai” become the protagonist.

People just love to hate Grayson Allen. It’s probably his face.

First of all, Matt Glenesk looks like a guy I’d throw in a locker. Second, dude on the right kinda looks like TFM’s very own Boosh. Minus permanent drunk face of course.
Duke vs Yale on Saturday. The winning team will be hired by Goldman Sachs

They’ll probably both get hired regardless.
Yale-Duke AKA The Obnoxious Bowl Saturday.

AKA The Future Embezzlers Bowl Saturday.
The crowd at Duke vs Yale is going to be out of control. pic.twitter.com/pSbcWV14Cz

This would be funnier if my boy Frink didn’t pull so much ass. And if Duke fans weren’t absolute animals.
duke makes yale feel like freaknik
— Rembert Browne (@rembert) March 17, 2016
Had to look up what “Freaknik” is and apparently it’s a spring break in Atlanta. Sounds awful.
There better not be one dumb play in Duke-Yale on Saturday.
— Tim Reynolds (@ByTimReynolds) March 17, 2016
You mean like this one?
CBS should refer to #Duke–#Yale players by major. "18th Century British Literature for 3 … No! Quantum Physics grabs the rebound."
— Mike Sielski (@MikeSielski) March 17, 2016
I feel like this would get incredibly confusing.

Rich kids don’t play the tuba. They play strings or piano, peasant.
After Yale completely wrecked America’s brackets yesterday, I’m pulling for them as an underdog. Something tells me Duke is pretty pissed off after that close call with UNC-Dub yesterday though, so expect them to break out another Plumlee clone to avoid getting beat on the glass.
