Virginia vs Duke

Barrett and Williamson are simply unguardable at this level. All you can do is hope they have a bad day.

Yeah, Tennessee will be 1. If not, then there really is some sort of pretty absurd bias.
 
Duke's Superbowl

In all seriousness, really good game Duke. Looking forward to the rematch in a few weeks.

LOL hope that Hunter shot made UVA cover
 
Dukes players are great and all. But I’d take that Jerome and Hunter kid all day long...
 
Hell of a win! That 2-3 zone K threw at Virginia caught them off guard. Brilliant move!

Good game Virginia! Hopefully Tre is back in the rematch

@denniden @dukiejay can you get me back on devils illustrated please? I have been banned for a while and I miss talking shop with my duke friends.

Ehhhhh... you’ve got enough Duke friends here, no?

Good game. Really happy to come away with the win against a really good Virginia team. This Duke team is tough. Not deep, though... Jordan Goldwire didn’t even get on the floor.
 
duke played their game, their style. admittedly it's probably a bit more fast paced and hard nosed at point of attack with jones in, but for the most part the game went the direction the blue devils wanted to take it, when they wanted to take it there. a nice adjustment by K and his team who usually like to get out and run, relying on a lot of transition points and POTs. it was close, but duke controlled rhythm and it never felt like uva had much for them.

great game none the less. still waiting on this duke team to put it all together though.

Yep. 15 lead changes and a 2 point loss in Cameron. We were no match at all. Probably should just forfeit the rematch in Charlottesville in a few weeks, especially with Tre coming back for the game.

didn't say no match. just making observation that while the game was close throughout, and in those games anything can happen, that the style of this game really favored duke and the results ultimately showed that to be true. uva really didn't dictate much of anything other than their own slow pace on offense. in the past i have seen them be much more trouble for duke...even in duke wins.

The same formula for beating uva is still true. Get in front of them, where they aren’t comfortable, and make them speed up. Down by 2 possessions, with the clock their enemy, they showed no urgency.

It’s easier said than done though. Not sure they will be behind much. Probably the best two teams in the country played last night.
