I said DUKE is overrated!


Recommended Posts

Just because of a loss doesn't mean their overrated. Sure they should win these games, but when everyone is gunnin for you your gunna slip up sometimes. They will be in the runnin till the end...

Duke should have at least 3-4 more losses this year. PITT exposed them and we didnt know it at the time, Wake brought it up again and Miami took advantage and really exposed them.

Are they the #2 team in the country - No.  However, are they still one of the best ten or so teams this year, Yes.  ANd they are capable of going to the Final Four again.  THey do shoot a lot of threes, but they also play terrific defense and force turnovers.  And their guard play is excellent, which is what drives tournament success.

Let me guess scooter you are a North Carolina fan? Duke is not overratted by any means every team in NCAA has a bad stretch during the season I am just glad that ours is coming now instead of during the tournament.

I see your pretty new on here---I'm a Longhorn fan. And in the tourney I think Duke only goes 2 deep. if not a loss early like last year.

There are a lot of teams in the nation that would love to go two deep into the tournament.  I mean they are 22-3 and first in the ACC which is historically the toughest basketball conference in the coountry (but down a bit this year) and have beaten UNC on the road, Marquette on the road, Clemson, Wisconsin, (all ranked) and Maryland twice.  They do lack post presence, but how many teams have a dominant post presence.  Wake beat Duke at their own game, and Miami almost let them back in after the worst half of basketball I have seen Duke play.  Will I be surprised if Duke loses before the Sweet 16?  No, it's the NCAA tournament!  But I also won't be surprised in they get to the Final Four.

    • In a video released Monday, Raja Cholan, a top official at the U.S. National Library of Medicine under the NIH, admitted to an undercover OMG operative he doubts jab efficacy and hasn’t “gotten the latest COVID shots and I’m not going to.”  “I PROBABLY SHOULDN’T BE SAYING THIS OUT LOUD;” Chief Confesses COVID Health Initiatives Were "COMPLETELY MADE UP”. "I don’t even know if these vaccines stop you from getting COVID. They don’t.” Adds, "We're all going to learn [about vaccine safety] when it's too late," as Pfizer & Moderna "are just getting a bunch of money… Vaccines were accelerated through the approval.” ‘We fly under the radar of being scrutinized…I don't think I have too much to worry about.’ Trump victory “worse for the NIH.” “It would be better for a Democrat to be in office.” WOW!!!!
    • The same reason you worry about Trump more than anything else. Why do trolls like yourself start threads like your Soros hedge fund thread and you never come back to…..just bait. Newsom might make a run for president in 2028. People need to know about his policies. You don’t think that’s important?
    • I like Newton’s chances here. I’ve watched  videos of Daingerfield what few I could get. Their big Qb scares me a little he looks Ike a good athlete. I think for a change Newton has a little more speed than the Tigers. That Samuel kid for Newton can move., and it goes without saying about Porter. That Hunter kid ain’t bad either. They scared me to death with their pass defense against Edgewood until I saw the video. That Qb for Edgewood can put it on a dime. And, his receivers could catch it. I’m pumped; this is the most fun time of the year for me. Go Eagles.🦅 I have to add this though. I watched the State game between the tigers and Yoe in 2010. Those guys looked like grown men playing as opposed to kids now a days who look like boys.😂 that was a heck of a good game.
