That's a low blow, sir.

My only point, and I'm trying to be genuine here, is that it's good to be a Blue Devil. You play in a great conference--certainly better than the SEC. And, even if you don't win that conference, you'll still get a #1 seed in the Dance...even if the regular season champ of that great conference has less losses than you.

Speaks to Duke's legacy.

It has nothing to do with legacy.

Point to another team that has better wins than @ Wisconsin, @ Virginia, @ UL, @ UNC, UNC, ND, and Michigan St. on a neutral court.

Nobody has the resume of wins that Duke does, and it's not even debatable.

As to the latter, I agree. Best of luck, HeLooks2MuchLikeDave.

Duke beat Virginia head to head and UVA didn't have to play in Cameron which more than likely would have given them 1 more loss.

I wouldn't feed the troll. He/she obviously didn't do their research to even look at the resume. The only thing the poster is going off of is overall record. No team has more quality wins than Duke.

My bad. He/she is a KY fan so I should have assumed he/she is a moron. It's a safe bet.

Nothing wrong with giving credit for winning games that are never even played, especially in this hypothetical UVA-visits- Cameron scenario. No-brainer, really.

Why don't you put up KY's top 7 wins and we'll compare them to Duke's top 7 wins?

If only Duke could have played the stacked SEC instead...

Seriously. Where do these trolls come from? They have to be kids like age 1 or so. sensible adults aren't like that unless they are THR. Wait a minute. I might be on to something here. Could they be UNC/THR posters in disguise?

Point is: unbalanced conference schedule. Duke's overall resume is better than UVA's. Simple as that.
