Not going to say much about this game other than if we play like we did Wednesday, it won't be close. I will add, it's going to be weird without K.

Today's game is scheduled for a 2pm est tip and will air on Fox Sports South and the ACC Network. It is not a nationally broadcast game. you can, however, stream it on ESPN360.

Duke 97

Boston College 68

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

I doubt we'll shoot as well as we did against GT, but if Duke moves the ball around as unselfishly, then I expect good things to happen. I believe Duke will dominate. K will be there in spirit, but Coach Capel will handle it all with ease.

Any word on whether this game is good to go at 2pm with all this snow? Did BC fly in yesterday?

Duke 92
BC 67

Capel yells "Let's go!" at least 5 times.

Only 5 times? :D

I don't care if we shoot as well as we did against GT, but I definitely want to defense to be better. BC has shown a little life this year, so this will be a nice test to make sure that what was discussed in film sessions comes to life.

Duke - 90
BC - 63

Duke is favored by 26.5. Wow. That seems high for an ACC game. My initial guess is Duke by around 25.

I thought the 19 pt. line against GT was high given how Duke had played coming in, and we saw how that turned out. But I agree, that seems too high.

I'm not quite as confident as you guys. BC can hit the 3 lately and pretty well. I'm going Duke by 12-15. There may be a little hitch being K's first game away. I hope The big 3 continue to improve. My biggest want this game, no injuries and no trips.

It's tough to set a line when one of the teams just won by 50+ in a very similar set of circumstances.

I'll have to catch this game as a replay on espn360 later. I expect Duke by a bunch.

I don't think we'll skip a beat without K, not yet anyway and how would we actually know if we do. The boys will try to impress to show that Wednesday night was the real Duke and Lord please let us play injury free.

Two of them are freshmen who have been delayed by injury. If that's an excuse, we have a short March. For now, it's an explanation and reason to be patient.

Same starting lineup as last game. Can't wait to continue watching that group gel together over the course of the season.

Let's score a lot again. Seemed like last game they didn't run as many sets and just pushed the ball and didn't hesitate to shoot if they were open. The way they need to play. Confidently shooting it. I'd like to see us press on defense. Hopefully Capel will go more full court on teams and just sub guys in and out and just be a tidal wave of pressure and talent
