Because I completely obliterated the last thread (I have to quit doing these while falling asleep) and I couldn't figure out how to edit the title with these new tools, I started over! SORRY EVERYONE!!!!

Round 2 (well technically three but we'll go with it).

This one is going to be tough - ESPECIALLY if we defend like we did yesterday.

Control the transition game, be there on the catch on the perimeter and contest.

Game is slated for a 2pm est tip (and similar to yesterday it won't air until closer to 2:30)

Duke 81

Notre Dame 74

GO DUKE!!!!!!!!!!

I wish we could have had a do over on our last game with UNX.
Hopefully, we get that opportunity tomorrow.

Play Jeter 15 mins & get Ingram some rest, he looked exhausted in 2nd half yesterday.

Duke: 78
ND: 75

We sure up our perimeter defense and our bigs contain their bigs inside. We hold them under 65 points. Marshall goes Hannibal Lecter on the offensive boards with his face mask. Luke puts up 20 in the first half with his "off" hand before ND realized he's a lefty. Allen gives the commentators nothing to talk about and goes 6 for 8 from deep.

Duke wins 77 - 62

Duke gets it done in D.C. today...

I have a tremendous dislike for anything that has to do with ND, so I would love to see us slaughter them today! Sorry part of it is, they seem to have Duke's # lately. I don't care how we do it, by 1 or 100, I cannot pick against us, so I think Duke gains a little revenge today, somehow, some way.
Go Duke!!

I think a major factor is Thorton's defense on Jackson. He has been playing great perimeter defense in recent weeks so if he could slow down Jackson, I think we have a great chance at the win.

Kind of a bland start. We look a little flat out of the gate. Let's go boys you can be tired after 40 minutes

Slow start but a couple big three's from Matt and Grayson erase that six-point deficit fast.

I. Dealing with a cunnundrum. I feel when I post in the predictions thread we play poorly but we play well when I'm posting during the game. Let's test this hypothesis.

We all must play to our strengths. I'm glad you've recognized the problem....didn't feel it was my place to say something. ;)

Was that a foul by Jeter like he said? Wouldn't that have been a penalty for us?

I didn't think I'd say this, but I sorta like the virtual 3 point line.
