You're not missing much, unless seeing Duke shoot below 30% (Redick is shooting 1-for-412), continue to turn the ball over (21 so far) and play spotty defense excites you.

Default That\'s what happens when you put the ACC on the road in the Big East

UNC is great and Wake and Duke have outside chances of making a Final Four run, but the rest of the ACC is wildly overrated.

I like Duke a lot (and picked them -12 today because SJU is the worst the Big East has to offer), but the Big East is simply a much tougher conference than the ACC.

Duke -11.5 @ St. Johns

[/ QUOTE ]

Duke 58, SJU 47

Duke up 11 with 28.4 to go, they're fouled, make 2 FT's, go up 13, and a SHADY foul call on a 3 point shot at the end dooms the spread as SJU goes to the line and makes 2 of 3 foul shots. Duke shot 30% from the floor, turned the ball over 16 times (erroneously reported as 21 in my earlier post), Redick was 2-11, the team did absolutely nothing right today, and they still won by 11. But the ending was super-duper college-special shady!

Default Brutal call with 7 secs on clock

not to mention that I can't believe Duke didn't grab the rebound off the missed layup.

My point about the Big East remains, however. You can say all you want about how poorly Duke played. They would like that a lot more often with a steady diet of BC, Syracuse, UConn, Nova, Pitt, ND, GTown, etc.

Yup, as soon as Duke made the two FT's to go up 13 I knew I had lost the game, seen it too many times to know that I was safe...shoulda bought a half-point but jeez, if they had even shot 35% it would have been a whoopin'. Ohwell....

I'm also adding in Kentucky at +3. I like how they match up versus Alabama, I think they're a much better shooting team and could win this outright their fair share..

BTW, my YTD is 0-1-0 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Woohoo... Kentucky did in fact win it. Make that YTD 1-1-0

PS - Duke is too small and too untalented to get out of the 2nd round of the NCAA's

Maybe if they played someone during the season they would be ready for what other teams are going to throw at them. *cough* Coach K is a pussy *cough*
