ACC Regular Season 2023-24

[DallasDomer]

I’m assuming you meant Duke beat UVA by only 4.

Yes sorry I'll try to edit my goof. Thanks.

 

[triaddukefan]

I wouldn't count anyone out. Duke beat UVA by only 4 and they play again late when desperation and injuries pile up. Pitt can be trouble at Pitt especially if the refs get involved. And maybe Duke might get an injury before Wake. Pretty much anything can happen in the ACC in any game.

Duke ain't losing to Wake. I'll walk to Wake's campus with a Paper Bag on my head if we lose to the Demon Deacons.

Chaos in the ACC. Who would have thought?

What happened to FSU, they are getting clobbered by @triaddukefan Blue Devils by 41 with a little over 3 minutes to go in the game 81-40. FSU has a goose egg in the 4th so far.

Wow, this is a really surprising game. Duke scored 24, 24 and 24 at the 2, 3 and 4th quarter to beat FSU 81 - 40.

They had that arse kicking coming after last year's fiasco down in Tallahassee.

Final score was 88-46.

1. ND
2. VPI
3. That school that wears the disgusting shade of blue that has its campus in Orange County, NC
4. F$U
5. Louisville
6. State
7. Miami
8. UVA
9. Syracuse
10. Duke
11. Clemson
12. Wake Forest
13. Boston College
14. Ga Tech
15. Pitt

GO DUKE!

Didn't get to watch the Duke vs FSU game, but I'm guessing the Duke guard play was a big reason why they dominated. If Duke can bring in some solid BIGs next season, Duke is going to take a HUGE leap forward as a team.

Box score shows FSU shot 22% for the game...and Duke was around 55%.

FSU is such a weird team, I can't understand them at all

Wouldn't Fournier be considered a solid big or are you thinking someone 6'4" and taller?

State Wake

Oooh...I am trembling in my seat with excitement and anticipation.

 

[Rooster C.]

They are built to out-score opponents. They don't play much defense - which is why they lost to the teams they have so far. A mediocre offense can score a lot of easy buckets against them (hence Duke's high fg %) but FSU can usually score even more - but not against a strong defensive team like Duke or some others. And some, like Arkansas, can score as much as FSU when they're "on".

They will never go deep in the NCAA's as long as that's their m.o. Also have to wonder why they've been unable to get a single Top-100 recruit for 2023 and 2024. Doesn't bode well for the future.

Roberson at 6’4” and Fournier at 6’2” is a good place to start. But I think Kara will have to go into the portal to get an experienced big to round out her front court.

Ive been thinking the same thing all year.. Too bad Emsbo wont have any eligibility left. She will still be at Duke next year finishing up her Masters degree, but will have to watch the games in the stands.

Just watched Virginia Tech beat Syracuse by 13 on the road in spite of a really down game from Kitley. Fun game to watch. There was some grown-woman rebounding going on from both teams. Dyaisha Fair and Georgia Amoore are both very good. I tend to forget how good Amoore is. She can break down defenses off the dribble with the best of them. Syracuse's first home loss.

I still don't understand how ND lost at home. My best explanation is they were looking ahead but ND doesn't match up well with Prosper still on the bench.
