Got to give it to Pitt. Played hard and played well. Great game by them.

Good game by Pitt..we have to play tougher and smarter than we did today.
Oh well. There are two things I know for sure.
1. I'm still a Duke fan
2. We are still National Champs

Man Amile would have been nice today. His healing rate matches that of a 90 year old without all of the amenities that Dukes facility has to offer.
Sometimes an old fashion *** whoopin is the best thing for you. We sure received one today, better get ready for Wake.
You can't go back in time. Lets just get the heck out of Pennsylvania.
Hats off to Pitt. Their game plan and determination was dead on. They created those open shots and second and third chance shots. They out hustled, out rebounded out, shot, out scrapped and gamed us. Long ride on. Next game. OFC
Always a Duke fan. No matter what. OFC
Denver, don't make a habit of being right like that too often.

Well notre dame gave them one at the end of last year, that turned out pretty good
@DukeDenver that's not something that you want to celebrate being right about.
Hope you're right! That'd be nice to have this team do that again
Well guys, I cannot find one thing to really feel bad about, we got it handed to us today. Pitt came ready to play, and they were well prepared. The way they shot the ball, I think it would have been hard for anyone to beat them.
Believe it or not, there is a lot for this Duke team to learn from this debacle, and I think "K" will use it to prepare for what's to come! Games like this happen to the best teams, and it's not the last time it will happen.
This was a total Coaching Staff and Team effort, but I will tell them this: I will be right here for you come Tuesday night, and ride it out with you until the end. I still love this team and these kids, no matter how the season ends up .
Go Duke!!

I was at the game and would just like to mention the Pitt student section changed "Grayson swallows" on more than one occasion.....stay classy Pittsburgh
Plumlee didn't take one shot or free-throw all game.. The biggest player Pitt has is 6'9" 245lbs..
From the Center position this game, Duke's stats were:
0 pts (0-1 FG / 0-0 FT)
6 rebs (3 Off. / 3 Def.)
2 ast
0 stl
0 blk
2 to
...Unless the jump shots are falling at +60%, there is almost no chance of beating any ACC team with those Center stats.

Pitt had the game of their life today, let'em have it. This is what happens when you're everyone's super bowl. They'll take an early exit as always, and Duke will be Duke, we have the coach and fire power to make it far this year.
How many weekends have Duke, Kentucky, and Carolina all lost? I'd say very very few
Not sure about all three and I may be wrong. But it seems like every weekend Duke has lost, so has Kentucky.
We'll be fine. The guys didn't have the desire or energy today. Would've been a tough task either way.
Sometimes a butt whipping is a good thing. The one you gave my Hoosiers helped make them a much better team. You will be fine
Let's don't start the whole "season over" BS now. We know better than that.
I thought the refs screwed us today. Oh wait, wrong board.
