ACC thread...

I would be curious what Duke is getting out of blowing out almost every conference opponent they play...

There is no game pressure, whatsoever, in basically any of these games they are playing.

Will be curious to see how they respond when facing adversity against actual competition (which unfortunately will not happen until the NCAAs).

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Duke can't control the level of their competition in conference play. So what they can get out of it is knowing that they can make who is supposed to be their bitch, their bitch. They played tonight's game on the road and without using Flagg as the go to guy. They focused on getting role players more involved, so you could say they got that out of it.

Duke not being tested get's mentioned a lot but I'm not sure it matters. 2000-01 Duke won their games by an average of 20.2
2014-15 Duke won their games by an average of 15.5
1996 Ky won their games by an average of 22
2014-15 ky won all theirs by an average of 20

Once the tournament starts I think that "being tested" throughout the season is out the window.

They might do like 5 of the 8 SEC teams did last year, lose in the first round.

You really have an anxiety/mental issue with the ACC.
