Duke at Miami - Wed, Jan 23, 7:00pm ESPN

[ChibCU]

I'm going into hiding for the next few weeks.

Duke gear going in the attic and not saying a word on facebook.

Why is it from 2009 on we get absolutely curbstomped at least once a season?

Don't remember so many 30 point losses back in the day.

 

[rome8180]

I said it after UNC beat FSU...Season trending in a really bad direction.

It's been trending that way since that fateful injury against Clemson

 

[rome8180]

Anyone else ready for next year?

 

[ChibCU]

Anyone else ready for next year?

This guy is. Then again, we'll probably get beat by 40 some point next season.

 

[rome8180]

Jesus. They are going to hang 90 on us. #4 Kenpom defense!

We'll be the #1 team and absolutely dominant until Jabari gets foot cancer.

This was the first game I missed this year. It seems I picked a good one.

 

[rome8180]

I am not watching either. Is it true our guards are 1-27? I feel like I could do better than that.

I've missed some games that were wins, but I've also deliberately skipped several games I thought we had a chance to get blown out in. I've been right every time so far.

 

[ChibCU]

Curry was like 0-9 and Cook like 1-11 when I was watching. Sheed had hit a couple, so I don't think 1-27 is correct but it is close enough.

 

[ZackM]

3/34 if you include sheed.

 

[DrKlahn]

As a Kelly fan, this is a bit more vindication than I was hoping for.

 

[rome8180]

Should have just shot from half court. Wouldn't have done better than 3/34.

 

[bdotling]

I want to lose by 40

 

[DrKlahn]

The 2010 team shot under 30% twice. They won both games.

 

[rome8180]

Big 5-0 run to end the game and prevent a 30+ point loss!

 

[DrKlahn]

The 2010 team shot under 30% twice. They won both games.

Oh good, sometimes something is perfectly illustrative.

11/27/2009:
Duke 21-72 FG
Duke 68, UConn 59

1/23/2013:
Duke 21-72 FG
Miami 90, Duke 63

I am stealing that Klahn

I am stealing that Klahn

Feel free. Obviously it's not totally fair to the current team because of road vs. neutral and Miami is playing better ball than UConn was. But it goes to show how different the two styles of play are (and how different it is when your starting lineup consists of 5 grown men).
