I'm a Duke fan, and even i said that they wouldnt be much of a force this season. JJ Redick and Sheldon Williams accounted for 60%+ of their scoring last season, you cant make up for all of that in one season. the only players on the team that had considerable playing time last season are Nelson, McRoberts, Paulus, and McClure, the rest barely even saw the court if at all. stop acting like its such a big deal for Duke to have lost 4 games, it happens.

I agree they are Obsessed with Duke! (Because we own them) As a side note McClure missed all of last year with an injury so he hadn't seen playing time in 2 years. So add him basically to the inexperienced players.

LOOK MY FELLOW DUKIES NOT TO BE ON THE UNC FANS SIDE.. BUT IF THE TABLES WERE TURNED WE WOULD BE DOING THE SAME THING TO THEM AND YALL KNOW IT... INEXPERINCE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.. IT IS ABOUT SKILL AND DESIRE... DUKE IS IMPROVING AND WILL BE INT HE FINAL FOUR AND COME OUT CHAMPS WHEN ITS ALL SAID AND DONE

as much of a Duke fan as i am, im not feeling a Final Four this season, definately not a national title.

Final Four:
UNC
Kansas
Florida
UCLA/Virginia Tech

i love Duke, but i'm just being real about it. next year i see Duke making a return to the Final Four. but it wont happen this season without a few changes.

Virginia Tech? No way. But just look at it this way, if UNC was in Duke's shape...you'd all be ragging us. Duke is just like the Patriots. K is Belichick. No one likes you. Duke boy

DUKE IS THE FINAL FOUR.. ENOUGH SAID.. NATIONAL CHAMPS.. U HEARD IT HERE FIRST

Duke is (13-4) against unc this decade and has won 17 out of the last 22 meetings, looks like Domination to me!

What's with you people and Virginia Tech? Are you kidding me? You don't know college basketball if you put VT in the Final Four.

I agree, they are a good team and Waxed and Buffed the floor with unc and may very well win the ACC tournament or Regular season but with no past NCAA tourney exp. will not make it all the way to the FINAL 4!!
