If that smiley didn't exist your post count would like 2. :lol:

It's not necessarily that they get the most calls, they get the IMPORTANT calls... there is no stat for that.

 

Of course, the Cats do too - especially in caRUPPt Arena.

Great article, I think I am one of the few UK fans that has nothing against Duke...

I dont care about Duke. Any team that has potential first rounders and seem to be ranked every year always seem to get the call. UK did in the mid nineties as well as Duke did in the early nineties. Also has to do with quality programs having quality coaches that have quality players that put them self in a position to get a call or 2(3,4,5,6,7lol) every now and again.

Deleted by oldrambler, I repeated an earlier post by mistake.

Spoken like a true imaginary rival of Duke.

 

Who said anythng about a rival, don't lump all in to that. I don't consider Duke a rival of U.K. at all, I just despise them. :thumb:

Kentucky fans, since it's their chief rival in question.

Sleep on it all you want, but that's why Duke threads are nearly as popular on here as UK threads. Truth hurts.

This study does not consider other variables. One variable in Duke or any good team's favor is they win a lot and get fouled a lot at the end of the games. Another variable is taht Duke plays very tight man to man defense and there is a lot of contact between the defender guarding the guy with the ball. On the other hand with a team like Syracuse they play zone and aren't near as aggressive. There are definitly different ways of looking at it.

 

Yeah good points, and it also doesn't show judgement calls by refs that could go either way that Duke often gets.

I hate Duke basketball and it has nothing to do with UK. :thumb:

 

Just wondering why do you hate Duke basketball if it isn't because of UK?

Lets go DUKE, Lets go DUKE.. Woo! :dancingpa
