Duke plays Louisville tonight and I don't know who I should be rooting for. This comes up a lot. Do I want Duke to pick up loss number 7 and see them tumble into the bottom half of the rankings poll or would it be better if Louisville lost ?

The outcome of this game has little/no effect on UCONN. Just follow your heart and root for Duke to lose and tumble into oblivion

A Duke win helps UConn in the ratings more since the Huskies played them. Might even help keep UConn from tumbling out of the top 10 in the RPI ratings, which I am sure is very important to everyone.

Hope, it will be hard not to root for my Cardinals once you see our freshman, Moore and Hines-Allen. They have been fantastic thus far, and a ton of fun to watch.
Go Cards!
Triad, I of course am rooting for my Cards. Hope it is a competitive game and the beginning of a great rivalry. I'll look forward to P's press conference calling our players out by numbers. :rolleyes: Also curious to see if there is any love lost between Coach Sam Williams and Coach P.

Coach Samantha Williams. She was an Assistant at Duke for several years and is one of a handful (sorry Triad) that have left Duke under Coach P for lateral moves. Although she is a Louisville native, so the lateral move to us is a little more palatable, I would think.

Bria Smith carried the team Sunday before last. She came through in the clutch!

Is Jude's ankle OK?

She played well on it vs Syracuse. Actually, very well. Have not heard any updates past the initial assessment which was it was "just" a sprain. ( not taking that "just" lightly).

After being down 11-2' L'ville has held Duke scoreless for 6-1/2 minutes. But they have only scored 3 PTS of their own. Duke 11-5 half way thru first half.

Duke on a run. 37-23 with 16 to go
Duke kicking butt. Size matters.

Announcers said South Carolina has the size and bench to wear UCONN down. We'll see about that :cool:
