I'm going to make this short and sweet. This game has me nervous. We can't take any round lightly at this point. JUST WIN.

Game is slated for a 7:10pm est tip and will air on CBS.

Duke 82

Robert Morris 65

I agree with Show. I'm not nervous about this game because a 1 seed has never lost to a 16 seed and I don't expect Duke to be the first 1 seed to lose to a 16 seed.

Robert Morris' coach, wife and son, are pulling for Duke. I heard that in an interview yesterday

Not picking a score here. I do feel nervous somewhat about how things may go. I want to see this team come out with fire, passion, intensity, focus, determination, a killer instinct, and a drive for five! All it takes is one slip up and you are done. Eventually a #1 seed will fall to a #16 seed, but, I don't think our boys let that happen. However, this Robert Morris team is good and they are really well coached. This is a veteran team and I believe they will come out ready to fight. So we have to match their intensity and will to win with ours. If we do that, we win. One game at a time people. It all starts now! LET'S GO DUKE!!!!!

Arizona & Villanova left no questions to be answered in their first game. I would expect no less here. After a minute or two of Tourney jitters, this one should be over! Duke wins going away, big!
Go Duke!!

It's time for Duke to start living up to the seeding they get in the tourney and tonight we need to play like a #1 seed.

If this is the final result tonight, this is one member of the OFC that will be greatly disappointed. Duke by at least 15 points.

I can't remember where I read it at but I read earlier that Duke is something like a 21.5 point favorite in tonight's game.

I want this Tournament to be remembered as the Break Out tourney for Justise Winslow. I hope he comes out fired up and attacks the rim. Also hope Quinn finds his shot after he came off a bit cold in that last game. Jah should demand some rim maintenance about halfway through this first game, it should be bent with his finger prints all over it.

I worry about every game until we get a comfortable lead but I think this game will be an easy Duke win maybe by 25 points.

It's just about GO TIME!!!! Time to forget about Mercer. This is a new year, a new team and a new tourney. Drive for 5 starts now. Come out focused and do this.

And, I hate Carolina. I just had to say that. It feels good to say it. GO DUKE!!!!! #5!!!

I just want to see Duke play good defense. I want them to hold Robert Morris to 55 points or less. If they play aggressively on defense they will spark turnovers which leads to baskets. I just want to see INTENSITY from the tip.

Morris 52

We need to rebound better, but I'm happy with the offense so far.

We've got them stunned...this is where we need to choke the life out of them and take away their belief they can hang with us. Go Duke!
