March 12, 200719 yr At worst they deserved a 7..so this is not that far off. ??? Care to explain? They lost 10 games. They had a losing record vs. conference opponents and are coming off a 3 game losing streak. Then they get a draw like VCU? Come on, Duke is the luckiest team in America!

March 12, 200719 yr This is a tough draw for Duke. I think VCU beats them in the first round. IMO they should have been an 8 anyway...
March 12, 200719 yr If Duke is an 8, then UK is an 11. Not true....The resumes are very similar....Duke's is slightly better, I'd say about a seed better. I think Duke should be either the last 7 or the first 8. UK should be the last 8 or first 9 IMO.
March 12, 200719 yr ??? Care to explain? They lost 10 games. They had a losing record vs. conference opponents and are coming off a 3 game losing streak. Then they get a draw like VCU? Come on, Duke is the luckiest team in America! It is not luck, it is flat out bias that goes Duke's way all the time. Your stats bore out that Duke should have been at least an 8 seed. But Coach K gets every break under the Sun and always will. Hopefully the Dukies will get beat in the first round and the only time we will have to see anything about Duke or Coach K is the multitude of commercials with his over bearing mug on them.
March 12, 200719 yr Someone said earlier that if Puke should had been an 8 then U.K. should had been an 11 seed. I really wish that we would had gotten a 10 seed over the 8 that we got or a 9. If U.K. wins the 1st round they would play the #1 seed in the region in the 2nd round.
March 12, 200719 yr only time we will have to see anything about Duke or Coach K is the multitude of commercials with his over bearing mug on them. :laugh: :laugh: By the way, I just saw Coach Kommercial on a new State Farm Insurance add on t.v.. I am now going to be shopping around for another insurance company. Maybe they could put him on a new Applebee's commercial and send "K" on a three hour Tooo - Weeer! LOL.
March 12, 200719 yr While VCU looks athletic against their competition I don't buy that they are too athletic for Duke...
March 12, 200719 yr While VCU looks athletic against their competition I don't buy that they are too athletic for Duke...Who said that?
March 12, 200719 yr Who said that? It was said several times it was a bad match up. A bad match up for this Duke team is a more athletic group than can keep up the heat for 40 minutes. I'm not sure VCU is that team from what I've seen of them. Talented team sure. Talented enough to create a disadvantage for this Duke team? I don't buy that...

I know their head coach is in his first season...
March 12, 200719 yr And how well coached are they? I know their head coach is in his first season... Another very valid question...
March 12, 200719 yr Well, I know Duke has not had a great season and they are a higher seed than they should be and I am by no means a Duke fan, but I think Coach K will have them ready to make a good run.
