My mantra all year until we can string together some wins: short and sweet.

Duke faces the rambling wreck of Georgia Tech (please tell me someone else remembers this lol?) tonight at 9pm est inside Cameron Indoor Stadium.

Tip is slated for 9pm est and the game will air on ESPN. FWIW, Duke comes in favored by -6. If you're the betting type, jump on Georgia Tech here. If my count is accurate, Duke is 1-9 against the spread this season, Notre Dame being the only game we've covered.

Duke - 70

Georgia Tech - 66

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

We all watched our recent games, and there's been plenty of us fans questioning this team. Fact is, we have competed. We were up on UL by 4 points midway thru the second half. We fought back against Pitt in the second half to come within a single possession. Tonight is the night this team pulls it together gets a win, and we build off the confidence.

Duke 77
GT 67

Can we find a third player to give us double-digit scoring? If so, we win, if not we don't. Time for our freshman to show up together and the team to play hard for 40 mins...not 5 slow ones and 15 recovery each half!

Really looks like a bookie trap game. I mean really, Duke favored by 6???!!! Tech is better, more experienced (expect K to say "They're Old" in radio pregame.) Yellow Jackets had UVA beat C-ville Saturday, but let 'em get away. Pulling with all my heart for the good ol' True Blue and White, but Tech wins, 77-74.

Fresh off a demoralizing loss to Louisville, we start slow once again and the older Jackets punish it. 80-68 Tech.

Not a lot of confidence in my Dukies and fortunately it has been a long time that I had skepticism in Duke at home against GT but GT is going to be strong and we have yet developed a big or two to battle with down low. We can win this one but I still believe that unless something changes in the paint this game will not catapult us to a NCAA bid!

Hate to pile on a kid like Baker who bust his a$$..... but he is in a serious serious slump!! Getting painful here guys. I see glimpses but they seem to fade quick. I’ve held out- but I’m to the point of major concern. Really thought the spark would come along

It's not a slump....he IMO just simply isn't a high D1 player...I can't think of anything he does good

Brake field misses post up. Goldy decides to go dap him up instead on getting back on D. Roach has to foul. Crap like that from a senior is unbelievable.

do we have any shooters coming in next year? We can’t hit wide open 3s lol. I’d love to have just 1 guy that the other team has to worry about leaving open so they can’t just pack it in as much.

We have good shooters coming in every year. Then they suddenly turn into not good shooters

I think Wendell just broke the record for the most turnovers in Duke history

I think I’m OK with Williams getting more minutes as long as he can stay out of foul trouble
