Duke just lost to St. John’s, and the Red Storm are currently 0-11 in the Big East. Would Duke be over .500?

easier for a decent/good team to lose in basketball than football..that being said..Duke would be in the top half of the Big East
Duke is 7-3 in a conference that is projected to have 8/9 teams in the tournament. Pretty sure they would have some success in whatever conference. Call it a hunch.
Considering they're over .500 in a conference that is better than the Big East, I'd say there's a good chance they would be.

Hmmm. Interesting question. Who's in the Big East again?
Obviously the OP was just a troll, as clearly Duke is super talented (LOL at the Syracuse fan though).
Serious question though - which of the ACC teams that Duke has beaten so far this year would finish in the top half of the SEC?
I draw the line with the SEC. The BE is one thing but Duke wouldn’t keep a game within 30 in that conference.
Duke would be in the middle of the pack, probably 4-5 in the BE. If you can't beat SJU or Boston College, you are looking at a minimum of 4 losses in the conference this year -- about the same as Creighton, SHU, Providence and Butler have now.
Anyone care to list all the teams who are still in the big east for those of us in real conferences
To find basically ALL of the BE teams just check the top 100 RPI rankings. They reside there. This won't even be a bad loss for Duke come seeding time. SJU is a tough out. The BE never really took much of a step back.
Here is the list:
2016 National champs
6 other annual NCAA teams
St John's
Georgetown
DePaul

these Nova fans are really annoying!! I would love to be in your bracket, You guys are getting WAY to cocky .
...Duke is way too soft to finish in the top half of the rough-and-tumble new Big East...
Seton Hall will beat Dook in Tourney....lock it up....seniors vs freshmen..
St. John's beat Duke by 4 at home.
St. John's beat Villanova by 4 on the road.

Will this reel in my fellow Villanova fans? My guess is not, unfortunately
Come take ownership of this post NovaNation.
Not going to happen. We won't hear from them again until March.
Probably true. We followers of blue blood programs know how to take the hits better than the Johnny-come-lately's like the Nova kind.
