Dave Portnoy was on the precipice of winning a nearly $200,000 bet during the Final Four on Saturday before Duke collapsed.<\/p>\n
And it left the Barstool Sports founder fuming about the Blue Devils, who lost to Houston, 70-67, after leading by 14 in the middle of the second half.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat has to go down as one of the greatest chokes in history of sports,\u201d Portnoy wrote on X after the game. \u201cCongrats Duke. You will always be remembered as choking dog losers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Portnoy posted screengrabs of a four-leg parlay he placed on the game, in which he wagered $25,000 to potentially win $193,750.<\/p>\n
He hit on Houston\u2019s Emanuel Sharp making at least three 3-pointers, Duke\u2019s Kon Knueppel scoring more than 14.5 points and Cooper Flagg scoring at least 20 points.<\/p>\n
But the last leg of the parlay was Duke\u2019s moneyline.<\/p>\n
The Blue Devils\u2019 loss came after a controversial foul on freshman phenom Cooper Flagg for going over the back on a rebound attempt after a missed free throw by teammate Tyrese Proctor. Houston\u2019s J\u2019Wan Roberts made both of his ensuing free throws to put the Cougars ahead with 19 seconds remaining.<\/p>\n
Portnoy, who says President Trump\u2019s tariffs have cost him $7 million, wasn\u2019t having any of Duke fans\u2019 complaints about the call.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuke fans complaining about this foul call are babies,\u201d Portnoy said. \u201cYou blew it. You couldn\u2019t inbound the ball. You dribbled it off your leg. Proctor played hero ball and missed [the] free throw. A million chances to seal it and you\u2019re gonna blame the ref? Loser talk from losers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Houston will face Florida in the national championship game on Monday in San Antonio to cap off March Madness.<\/p>\n
Flagg, meanwhile, is the projected No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft after being named national player of the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
