I am very excited to watch this game tonight. I think Wake pulls it out but if Duke wins at Wake what a bunch of overated fags |

Oh, you and me both, man. I'm no fan of either team, but I just flat out love watching a good basketball game. Duke has been pretty damn good the past couple of weeks, but it's in Winston-Salem and I like Wake. Teague needs to bring his A game, and the Deacs need to be able to get their offense going against that pesky Blue Devil D. Here's to hopefully a spectacular game. :cheers: |

Duke's looked very good all year, so unless it's a blowout, I wouldn't call Wake Forest overrated. When Wake's on, they can beat any team in the country... the problem is that they're not very consistent yet. |

This one is easy to pick someone to root for (against) Duke is the most reviled sports team in history, surpassing even the Yankees. |

Duke has to take care of the ball, otherwise Wake gets out and runs and they are tough to beat when that happens. Wake is the most athletic team in the country. One of the more athletic I've seen recently actually. Turnovers are key. |

We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves." "I’d take him to the ends of the earth — I’d want him playing for me.” - Bo Ryan on Robbie Hummel

I pick wake to win this with the home court...but i think Duke is the better team. Duke is for real this year, they are very good with guards and they have versatile big men that can step out...if duke is on, nobody in the country can beat them, and when they are not, which is rare, as they have so many shooters, they have guys like henderson that can score in other ways |

Yeah, but it had an exciting finish and how many teams can say they have wins over both UNC and Duke? |
