[krzyzewskiville]

Hoping this one isn't a nail biter tonight. I don't believe it will be...

Game is slated for a 7pm est. tip and will air on ESPNU HD.

Duke - 94

Yale - 66

GO DUKE!

Here is hoping Brandon Ingram can get out of the funk tonight and show us all why he was one of the top recruits in the country.
LETS GO DUKE

 

[HuffyJB]

^ That was my exact thought. I want nothing more than an Ingram "coming out party" that sets him on the right track.

 

[Tlass]

Us- 89
Them - 68

Lets go DUKE !!

 

[skysdad]

Hoping this game is indeed a blowout and will give guys like Kennard , Jeter and Ingram a chance to break out and score some big points.

I'm expecting Duke to win, hopefully comfortably, but it wouldn't surprise me if the bulldogs played us pretty tough. Yale had a double digit lead against #25 SMU before losing by 2, 71-69. And that was at SMU's house. They've got 3 guys that can put up some points.

And yes this would be a perfect time for BI to have a coming out party. It would be nice to see Luke score a couple of 3 pointers also.

We tend to struggle against teams that are better academically. But that might also explain why we have only lost 3 of 13 versus UNC-Chapel Hill. Anyways, I think we pull this one out against all odds.

Justin Sears of Yale is a genuinely outstanding player, and Yale is a favorite to win the Ivy League this year. So the Devils need to bring their "A" game tonight, though I like the odds of K finding a way to take advantage of a mismatch somewhere on the court.

Yep, I'm looking at this game as a tough one myself. They can really shoot 3's well and Sears is an awesome all-around forward. I expect to be losing at half, then the coaches can show them how to guard the 3 point stripe in the locker room. We come back out and whip their butts with defense. That's the script I'm writing.

GO DUKE !!!!!!!!!!!

I want to see Brandon step up on D and I want Luke to be Luke.

Duke - Big
Yale - Not so big

 

[JCColsCane]

With a team this young and still trying to find their way, you never know what can happen. Especially when people are predicting a blowout!
Time to continue getting used to each other and becoming a team. Duke should win this one.
Go Duke!!

[GTHC_ GTH!]

Duke wins because of the media, Coach K scares the refs, or because....

Duke is just better. (don't tell THR. They're mind will explode.)

 

[Duke=Boom!]

Duke lose because Gary-7 said so.

 

[JohnstonCDevil]

Duke by a bunch! GO DUKE!!!

I'm all excited about this game. But now I'm a little concerned about seeing the start with the UNLV and IU game winding down. It's close with 2 1/2 minutes and those 2 1/2 minutes can stretch to 15 or 20. OFC

 

[skysdad]

It's taken 12 minutes to play that / minutes and the game is still on. Now watch IU hit a and go into OT OFC

 

[Showenuff]

Horrible start, guarding the 3 like uncheat right now. Kennard hit a 3 though.

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

We were down 11-3, now it's 15-7. The good news is that Luke has made a 3, and BI also.

 

[dbav]

Good to see Ingram making some shots.

 

[OldasdirtDevil]

15-11 Yale. Luke and Brandon have 5 points a piece.

OFC

 

[Showenuff]

The anticipation for Luke to come into his game is literally killing me.

 

[dbav]

Ingram looking good so far.

 

[jamsession3]

Chase is our only post player...let him play!

 

[dbav]

Jeter is in. Happy to see that.

 

[dbav]

I like an aggressive Ingram.

 

[Showenuff]

Turnovers are going to make me blow a circuit.

 

[dbav]

The new rules are just killing me. Even the announcers in some games have said enough is enough with the whistles.

 

[denverexpat]

Lots of whistles...no flow to the game

 

[LetsGoDuke301]

Nothing nice to say.

 

[CRAZIE4LIFE]

Yale?!?...come on, this is sad
