That's the Duke team I remember from past years! I wouldn't measure success based on playing NC State. We're horrible and very well might be the worst team in the conference. I expect we *might* win 5 conference games, barring a miracle. Congrats, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaffneyPeach Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 GSP used the terms "wild card" and "wishcast" in their afternoon disco. I love those folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this quote the best. "Job #1 of any good and experienced forecaster is to forecast what is ”most” likely to happen not what “could” happen. I see entirely too much time spent on the “could” forecast and not the most likely forecast. While it can be fun to talk about the what ifs it doesn’t make for a very good forecast."

I'm hoping that the Pack can show some improvement over the course of the ACC schedule. If coach Gottfried is who I think he is, they will improve. Maybe not enough to win many more games this year, but in preparation for next year. This is a really young team this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TullyHeel Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 That Syracuse and Pitt game was exactly why I didn't 't want the ACC to become the Big East. It was a close game, but it was ugly basketball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TullyHeel Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Maybe the best thing yo do is just wait to see if Matthew East or Allan Huffman make an appearance on here. Then I know there is really something worth following. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really take too much joy in beating NCSU, though. I kinda like them. It's just not the same as beating that pastel blue team...

You know the next team Duke plays is in for an azz kicking like they never had before!! Also, good point. In addition, if they have to play Duke at home after Duke has just lost. Duke still refuses to lose on their home court. 109 victories in a row at home against non-conference opponents. 186-14 in their last 200 home games against anyone. 3-0 at home so far in this ACC season. (Of course, they're 0-2 on the road in the ACC.) They could lose to anyone at home, potentially, but I see Syracuse (undefeated and really good) and UNC (throw the records out for that game) as having the best shots for the remainder of the season.
