  1. Postseason Chances?

    Based solely on schedule, I think Syracuse and Wake are in trouble. Barring a couple of big upsets and/or a run in the ACCT, I think they're both in NIT. Cuse may get a nod based on brand name alone, but the NCAA is still mad at them about the scandal and may keep them out of the tourney to...
  2. @Miami

    I watched part of that game last night and the rest just now. Duke was getting hammered in the lane all game and never got a call. UVA definitely got whatever home court advantage there was from the refs. That being said, the refs just let both teams beat the crap out of each other...
  3. Syracuse - 2/19

    I'm with @CuseJacket . I think we come out and play as a team. I think being at home and in front of a loud and supportive SOLD OUT crowd will be a huge lift. I think Cuse plays their normal away-from-the-Dome game and we win by 5 or 6. Also, Cuse has Duke coming to the Dome next...
  4. Coaching Carousel 2 - A New Dawn

    IMO, if Indiana or Ohio State offers, Miller goes. Those are two good P5 programs with solid support and deep pockets. I don't think State has any chance of landing him. Crean to State seems like a huge reach, as it would be a massive demotion for him and i don't think his ego could handle...

    Best line from a State buddy of mine.... "Man, I wish we still had Sendek."
  6. @Miami

    This. The fact that every team's fan base thinks the officials are biased against them is evidence that they are, in fact, unbiased. That doesn't mean they're all good officials or don't make bad calls, but I sincerely doubt they are for / against any team. When they are found to be biased...
  7. Coaching Carousel 2 - A New Dawn

    I don't think Alford is likely to leave Westwood, even for Bloomington
  8. Syracuse - 2/19

    As an aside, I've got extra tix for the NCSU game. Drop me a line if you want more info. (All my Cuse tix are gone)
  9. ACC Discussion

    I'll pass on the hot tub with Buzz and Peac, but if Sue Bird wants to invite me to her WNBA hot tub........
  10. ACC Discussion

    Really sucks for VPI. Clarke is a stud and the glue of that team. They're going to struggle to go far without him. Hate to see kids with ACL and / or MCL tears. Even with advances in treatment, those can be career changing
  11. ACC Discussion

    I doubt Capel goes anywhere. He will stay at Duke unless / until he's told he isn't getting the job.
  12. ACC Discussion

    DSJ is extremely talented but like many frosh he is inconsistent. He dominated Duke in Cameron. Then he lays an egg at FSU. His whole season has been a series of feast or famine games. Hopefully he sleepwalks through the game at McCamish! ;) Rowan is a damn good shooter and capable...
  13. Request for help--GT basketball tickets

    I'm a hoop snob... prefer to sit lower level midcourt rather than 200 level end zone. Esp when ticket prices are essentially the same :)
  14. Request for help--GT basketball tickets

    If ramblinwreck has decent seats, I would go there. For most games, all they have is end zone and 200 level seats. If you want good seats for the same money, I'd go stubhub. (StubHub is GT's official ticket resale partner)
  15. Request for help--GT basketball tickets

    Check StubHub. They almost always have good tix listed (that's where I put mine if for some reason I can't go). I just checked and there are 400+ tickets on Stubhub right now. They have some good ones in sections 101 & 109 (center court), including some in the Callaway Club. Prices aren't...
  16. Memphis Tigers Disbelief

    It's pretty tough to schedule P5 schools in the non-conf part of the schedule now. Teams can play a max of 29 regular season games (or 27 plus an exempt tourney) Most P5 schools have expanded conference schedules (ACC is up from 14 to 18, others are similar). Most P5s go to a holiday exempt...
  17. Schedule

    I started thinking about this year's schedule and then I looked at ACC standings. I know no one planned it this way, but our schedule has actually worked out pretty significantly in our favor this year. We play the three top teams in the conference once each (no home and home). All three...
  18. Postseason Chances?

    Barring an amazing run through the next seven conference games (including @ ND, @ Cuse), I think it's going to take 3 wins in the ACCT for us to make it to the dance. If we finish up with 13 losses (2 in reg season & 1 in ACCT), I think we're on the outside looking in without some luck. If...
  19. ACC Discussion

    Wonder if Slick Rick will bench them the whole game or just for a few minutes at the start
  20. Postseason Chances?

    Ted is awful. I cringe whenever I see him or Jamie Luckie at one of our games. Brian Dorsey sucks raw eggs, too. Unfortunately, Bryan Kersey isn't doing games anymore. (He's head of officiating for the conference now.) He was one of the best for the past several years. I know many don't...
