Heartbreaking game. Then again, there's always March. Oh, and beating UNC. That's ALWAYS fun!

Any of you go to Duke/been to a game at Cameron? It's unreal.

5-3 would be awesome for Duke. 6-2 is an impossibility.

Here are the 8 games. What do you have them losing other than both UNC games. Home v. Wake? At Maryland? At GT?

Duke isn't very deep and frankly, they've either lost or barely won their only tough games. After losing at home against Maryland, it should be painfully obvious that they are capable of losing every one of those games.

Sadly, no.

I will someday though.

Along with trips to Fenway, Yankee stadium, Green Bay for a football game, Soldier Field since they renovated it, and I'd like to go to the Big House for a college football game.

Any team is capable of beating any other team at any time.

This is all posturing. Yeah, Illinois is rolling right now, and have a very legit shot at winning the whole enchilada. (In fact, they are my choice for playing in the Final Four just based on the two games I've watched them play this year. Can kill you many different ways)

However, Duke has the type of team this year where they *can* go into anyone's house and kick their butts.

They are scary good...when they are clicking.

Anyway, March isn't too far away. And I'd rather see Duke be a 2-5 seed than a 1 seed. Too much pressure on them as a 1.

Good luck to your boys Clark.

Nah, not posturing. Just my opinion. If I had to pick, of the remaining games there I'd assume they lose @MD, one of the GaTech games, and one of the remaining 3 games, likely NC, but maybe @St. Johns.

Sure, if the other team lays an egg. But this is a very underwhelming Duke team.

I very much expect what happened last night to happen when Duke plays teams like Wake or North Carolina. You can't run with the Deacs or Heels with a bench as short as the Devils'.

I have the ... GT home game as pretty much solid wins.

Actually, you should beat us this weekend. BJ needs to get his ass better quick. We have a deep team, but our offense is built around having an outside shooting threat, and Morrow just isn't good enough yet on both sides of the floor to step into that roll. He's gonna be an assassin next year though.

The real question is whether Duke will finish .500 for the month of February.

2-3 with 3 games to go. Better hurry. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
