After four straight losses, Duke is now unranked.

They will get back on there feet. Just struggling with a young team right now. Coach K will right the ship and they will turn the season around. Go dukies!

They are a young team going through a rough time right now, but hopefully coach K can get things turned around soon.

They have talent but may be a year away from making some noise in the tourney.

They may not be a top team in the nation but they do have a top coach who will get them back on track for sure. Even if Duke has a less impressive record as some of the bubble teams they will still make it in on reputation. After all, what would the NCAA tournament be without Coack K?

I would love to see the tourney without Dook and Josh McRoberts. That guy is a joke.

And hopefully Maryland can move up to 19-7 with a win over NC State! Then they can finally get back to the big dance after their drought. If we can sweep Dook and then get a big win against the Heels, I think the Terps can get their dancing shoes out or at least I hope so.

Well, Maryland beat NC State who they've had trouble with the past few years. Now, hopefully Duke drops their 5th straight.

I guess I can let it go this time as long as Maryland keeps on winning. Also, Syracuse didn't let Devondorf blow the game for them and they won tonight even though it was only South Florida.

Maryland is now 19-7 but doing poorly in ACC games. They need to win their games coming up or else have a great run in the ACC tournament.


Syracuse is 18-8 but has a very poor non-conference schedule so they really need to win their remaining games and have another great run in the Big East tournament much like last year.

Maryland has won 2 of those games so far and they're 20-7 right now and riding a 4 game win streak. Hopefully they can ride it straight through the ACC tournament and into March Madness. We still have Florida State, North Carolina, at Duke, and North Carolina State again. The losses that have hurt are Miami FL, Virginia Tech, and Florida St.


Syracuse is now 19-8 and riding a 3 game win streak after their win against Uconn. Again their non-conference schedule is very weak but hopefully they can win the remainder of games against Providence, Georgetown, and Villanova. The losses that have hurt us are Drexel, St. Johns, Connecticut, and Louisville.


Unfortunately Duke has won their past two games against a good Boston College team and an average Georgia Tech team.
