It is not as bad as it appears considering all the elements involved. Every year the first true road game Duke plays poorly because it usually comes right around the 10 day break during exams. I often wondered why the scheduling works out that way. The Clemson loss was a bit puzzling being Duke out played them most of the game, but ended up with five true freshman on the court in the closing minutes without Roach. VT caught on fire hitting threes in the first half and more than questionable officiating in the second half. NC State played out of their minds and Duke was not prepared to counter attack at all. This is the one that is most alarming of all the road losses considering most of the other games could have gone either way.
There is not a Zion or PB on this years team even though Flip is coming into his own lately the Freshman class has under performed.
Usually, about this time of the year the Freshman are not Freshman any more so let’s hope that translates to wins on the court
