Not going to do my usual eval on this one, battling the flu and don’t have it in me.

We all know road games - heck any game - in the ACC can be a test, so I don’t see tonight being different.

Coach L at Miami has always scouted and played Duke well and they’re off to a good start this year at 9-3.

Duke is currently sitting at a -9 point favorite and for some reason, I really like us in this one. We’ve been road warriors so far and I honestly see it continuing.

Tonight’s game is slated for an 8pm est tip and will air on ESPN.

Duke - 83


Miami - 69

GO DUKE!!!!!!!!!

Will be another good test for the D, the way Miami isolates and drives. And prepare for Miami's one sell-out crowd this season.

Duke - 78
Miami - 62

Get better K-ville!

What's better than a Duke basketball game? One that's not on the ACC Network, starting midway through the first half, because of an ACC cross country meet. Contain Lykes and find Vasiljevic behind the arc and we should be fine. We took a step forward last game and I hope we take another one today.

Amen to that. The ACCN has been one big disappointment. I would let them know how I feel but everyone I try to find where to let your voice be heard I can't find any contact info. I guess I old contact the ACC commissioners offine and tell johnny "tar heel " swofford. I know he had a big hand in bringing us the thing. OFC

Think we win this game if we play solid defense and don’t turn it over. Will be interested to see how big Vern handles his homecoming. Think we win comfortably.
Go Duke!

All the Miami players can hit the 3 ball and they like to drive to the basket, something we don't defend very well. Think we win a very close one here. 4 to 6 point win.

Thank the gods it's on ESPN.

I don't think Miami is as good as their 9-3 record indicates. We should win this one on the road, but the environment should be a good test for us.

Never ever like going down there. I’m pretty damn optimistic about this team tho. Just pure Grit. Nothing flashy. As great as last season was, this is fun as heck as well. Really like us tonight and moving ahead. Gonna a lose a few head scratchers yet but like the build and workman like vibe

Duke is about to spank that booty. I don't care who they have at any position, they don't have, nor have they seen the junk yard dogs that's in their house tonight. That SFA game woke these boys up and I think they take it to Miami tonight. I expect even more intensity from Duke tonight to make sure big Vern leaves home with a nice game and great team win. These Durham boys will be ready tonight!

These past two Miami teams aren’t the Miami teams that are usually tough. I think if we contain Lykes and the vaselavicz kid, Duke wins pretty easily.

Duke: 84
Miami: 68

let’s go Duke!!

With that said and I agree it should not even be close but I've always hated playing down there and FSU too. OFC

Never thought of it, but isn't Houston Texans kind of a dumb name? It's like if you named your team the Durham North Carolinians.
