Official game day thread- Duke vs SMU

[youngman42]

Exceptional win. Great to see.

Just hope we win the league and beat UNC 2x.

3x if we play them in the ACC. And hopefully eliminate them from the NCAAs. That would be as sweet as it gets! Lol.

Well, 2010 was very good. 2001 was incredible with”who’s your daddy? Battier!”

2001 was great but this team has potential to be better on defense than 2010. We do a good job of switching and Sion and Proctor have good size

This is a special team

Arizona gets a signature road win at #16 Cincinatti (Great for Duke’s Resume)

Nebraska beats #15 UCLA

This team can really defend. 2010 was the last great defensive team I remember. 2015 played really good defense by tourney time.
The battier teams were all really good defensively. Ks 80s and 90s teams all played really tough defense. At some point he stopped (probably one and done era K) emphasizing it as much. Jon seems like he wants to get back to duke defense. Even last years team defended well despite a lot of obvious deficiencies.

For who? 🤣

Oh yeah its a home game. We should win pretty easily.

 

[bleediteveryday30]

And it's against Pitt. Chris, how many Coors have you downed tonight? 🤣

 

[christophero]

Oh man. None. Just woke up from a nap ha

 

[bleediteveryday30]

Oh man. None. Juat woke up from a nap ha

I can relate to that, haha I hate watched the last Raiders game of the season and then passed out for a minute.

 

[christophero]

The Bengals were eliminated but at least they beat the Steelers

I don't know when or if my Raiders will ever turn it around. Lloyd Christmas probably needs to let Tom Brady, Richard Seymour, and Tom Telesco make all the football decisions.

I was waiting on him to realize it haha

I was really rooting for them. But KC doesn't want that smoke. It was almost comical, the way they lost today. They had full control of avoiding the Burrowhead game in two weeks.

I am a 49ers fan. So no need to pick on me. My shame is as high as it can get.

SMWho? Great win Saturday. I thought we dominated. They made some really tough 3's that kept it closer than it should have been. Still we held them to a near season low in scoring, our defense is elite IMHO. I thought SMU looked exhausted by midway thru the second half, or maybe just demoralized? If we can avoid a really poor shooting night on the road, we are going to be tough to beat in league play. Pitt should be a good game Tuesday!

Hope the guys didn't get too high after the win. Can't forget what Pitt did to us last year at home. Better come out focused
