February 15, 200719 yr Barring a loss to Georgia Tech on Sunday I see no reason they wouldn't. They were already nearly in both polls last week (26th in both), and they just knocked off a top 25 team on the road. If the polls were released today, they'd be in. The team they replace just might be UK.
February 15, 200719 yr Will Duke be in the rankings???? They will be top ten easy after this win even if they lose this weekend...Maybe top 5 if they win this weekend!!!:lol:
February 15, 200719 yr If they dont, they will be overlooked and that is never good to do against any coach K team.
February 15, 200719 yr If they win against Georgia Tech I believe they should and will be back in the top 25. Possibly the top 20 due to the name across the front of their jersey. As a UK fan it's something that hurts me to think about, but does anyone else get the feeling that Duke is gonna make a huge run in the tournament ? I'm gonna go out on a limb and say they make the final four this year.I personally would love to see them get beat in the first round, I just dont think its gonna happen. I know expectations are always high at Duke, and they are in a down year, but its still Duke and Coach K. Just a feeling...tear it apart if you please.

Going out on a really big limb there eh?? haha Stranger things have happened and they have shown they are capable of it they just have to maintain the enthusiasm all game every game.
February 15, 200719 yr I think it depends on where they rank BC. If they dump BC out of the top 25, they could leave Duke on the bubble. If BC remains in the top 25, Duke has to be broght back into the fold.
February 16, 200719 yr Yes, I honestly don't think they ever should have dropped. They had lost 4 consecutive games, 3 against unranked teams, and were under .500 in ACC play.
