We definitely match up better with Yale than Baylor. It would have been tough to contain Gathers. That guy is just a monster on the boards.

Already seeing this BS. Apparently the NCAA knew Yale was a bad matchup for the team that was supposed to take our lunch money in the second round according to rival fans.b But they say Yale has no shot against us. You can't make this crap up.

Idiots will be idiots.

Yale is going to make this a cake walk to the sweet 16 for you all. They won't blow this.

... I think.


What was Yale supposed to do. Throw the game so Duke would not have a cake walk. You guys are unbelievable. And DukeSky85 is correct it the statement "that didn't take long." Until and if Duke loses Tar Heel nation will whine all the way through the dance. OFC

"Cake walk" is idiotic. A team played really well and won, and that somehow makes them an easy out? That logic is completely ridiculous.

"Thank goodness you get to play that team who executed and won in a tough game against a quality opponent. They should be easy."

Got banned at THR for saying:

UNCW had the 2nd most FT's against them all year. Yep, the refs are just biased towards Duke (and all other UNCW opponents).

MikeIrby, if you're reading this, I feel bad for you man. Stats hurt eh?

It's unbelievable, they really don't like stats/facts over there. They would rather have kerosey1 (sp), DSouthr and Gary-7 give out 100% truthful facts about Duke, Coach K, and the players.

I'm just happy we don't have a chance of losing to the team everyone is telling me we will lose to.

You're wrong. This was deliberately planned by the committee.

Coach K worked the refs and swore at them so much in the first game that it actually had residual carry-over to the second game. Just saying.

Jericho bud you get a lot of lenacy here. Your not too bad, but UNC fans just aren't popular around here surprise surprise


He doesn't get it. He stated he hasn't said anything to get banned for. The thing he doesn't understand is we get banned for similar things posted at THR. He's clueless and I take him for what he's worth which is not much. Have any of you seen the stuff he puts up over at THR. He should be banned for that but ours mods don't ban for what you post on your own board. Most of us here that have been banned from THR never posted anything on their board. OFC

Yep. THR boys are given a chance to be here despite what they may say at home. We aren't given that same chance, though worst things could happen. Speaks to their insecurity and anger, including the mods. If I was a Tar Heel, I'd be worried about what happens when duke shows up at your house also.

According to the media, we were underdogs against UNC Wilmington! Cue the Carolina fans crying about all of the foul calls on the Seahawks!

There's a ton of pressure on UNCs team to win it all this season....a ton. It's carried over to the fans at THR and has made them more paranoid than usual. That's saying something.

And what if they don't? That will be a scene to see I guess

Duke is a different team without Jefferson. And, Ingram is a different player as well. So too Thornton. Not sure how much the first match up means. Did Yale's banned center play in the first game against us?

Had to of because he just recently was suspended I believe. Your talking about the Montague guy correct?

Matt was much better then too. The way I see it, we are in for a fight.

Most definitely we are....but it's the NCAAT. That's expected. Now, I prefer playing Yale over Baylor, however that doesn't mean I think it will be easier. It's just a better matchup for us.

So what did he mean? Like he'll miss hanging out with his teammates?

That is what he meant. I believe he explained further latwr. The dinners are when the players were all together just hanging out. It was a really good sentiment, but I think the emotion of the situation made it come out wrong.

The reporter's reaction to the Baylor comment is brilliant! Love it!!

Next. That's all there is, next. Who cares who it is?? Prepare and play. Yeah, sure, I think we match up better with Yale too, but if you thought they looked weak yesterday you were watching a different game than me. Baylor is a legit team, and Yale took them down.

I think we find our range from 3 after a tough shooting night yesterday. If we do, we win going away after a tight first 30 minutes.

Win and advance.

is it Duke's fault Baylor didnt show up as expected????...Its March Madness and anything can happen....3 wrenches got thrown into the mix yesterday...Witchita State, Yale, and Ark. LR and maybe a few more today.....that's the beauty of it....you play the other team that also WINS their games, there isn't a losers bracket or a redo!!!!!!!!!!

Ingram wasn't even starting at that point he was playing so bad, he played solid vs Yale the first round off the bench but no where near where he's at now.

To me it call comes down to Luke. He doesn't need to be on fire to beat yale but he needs to start playing A LOT better.
