I'm picking Duke here.

The Doo-devils gave a very good NC State team absolutely all they could handle, and their seniors are feeling a sense of urgency as the regular season heads into the back stretch.

Duke is 11-10 but somehow, at #42 in the RPI, still on the bubble. Having the #2 nonconference schedule is keeping them in the picture. But they must go at least 5-3 in their next 8 games, and that's no easy task with games against NC State, Florida State, North Carolina (x2) and Virginia Tech. They'll need to win at least 2 of these 5 games, assuming they can hold serve against Pitt, Miami and Virginia.

Miami (FL) is 3-6 in their last 9 without Mompremier, so they were 9-4 with her, for an overall record of 12-10.

Anyone know what her injury prognosis is?

Are you hoping Duke gets in the "Portlandia" region? I already bought have my tix.

They were 9-4 with her but lost to every good team they played, unless you consider Washington State and Wake Forest good teams.

The last Miami game I saw, maybe a week ago or so, no timetable was reported.

Edit: It was at last Thursday's game vs. Georgia Tech. The commentators said the foot injury was initially expected to have her out only a couple of weeks, but has taken longer than expected. They're simply waiting on the pain to fully go away before they play her again, but apparently they still expect her back at some point.

Are you actually thinking Duke will make the Sweet 16?

No...I just like that book store.

I need help, I am not sure quite how Triad feels about this game...I also don't think I should say which team I voted for here...It would be nice if Odom took Bailey's lunch money tonight...

 

[triaddukefan]

Let's just hope Bailey is on better behavior for this game than the last time she visited Cameron

Gonna be watching closely the interactions between her and Williams.

Duke gets 2 steals and has already has 4 shots taken in about the first 1:30.

18-16 Duke end of first

It's an exciting game so far. Both teams are playing well.

One thing that's tough about this UNC team is that their scoring is very balanced. Their starting 5 average between 10.9 and 15.6 ppg. But I'd for sure say that Bailey and Koenen are their two best players. Staying out of foul trouble is critical, especially for Bailey and Tshitenge, because they have no good size on the bench. Church is good for some 3s now and then, but in general it's a huge drop-off when they go to the bench.

34-32 Duke at the half
Gorecki 8 pts, 5 reb, 3 ast

 

[DefenseBB]

Man, if I was a Duke fan, I would be sooo irritated as this is the team I was expecting to see all year given all their talent. Poor JPM must be so frustrated not having this squad listen to her coaching insights to rise to an elite level...

 

[Plebe]

Duke came out in 3Q on absolute fire! 17-3 run to take a 16-point lead. That sure changed fast.

 

[triaddukefan]

 

[Shades]

54-44 Duke end of third
Gorecki is the truth

 

[Shades]

Oh oh, Duke is supposed to be hard to comeback on.

6 point lead for Duke with 4:00 to play. It's heating up.
