Your welcome. Now, what does that acronym mean? For all the years I've been aware of the UNC-Duke rivalry, I don't recall seeing it before.

Man..................I wish I knew this years ago. I have a cousin who is a fan of them. I could have used the acronym without getting in trouble at family functions! LOL

Does your cousin have any ties to the state or school? How otherwise can a person root for that school .. im perplexed.

Texas beats KSU tonight 66-48.

Ayoka Lee played 39 minutes as she was not in foul trouble. Scored 2 points in the first quarter; and only had 4 or 6 points to end the half. Had 10 points total to end the third quarter; she did end up with 20 points on a few late buckets as her final shooting line was 9-20; also had 11 rebounds.

Her bad games look good stat wise.

Absolutely none. Not sure how he became a fan. And in all honestly, I couldn't care less as he's a jerk anyways. Fits the UNC profile perfectly.

In Canada, becoming a fan of a NCAA programs isn't always because someone went to school there. Especially during the 90s, most of us developed our fandom based on what we got to see on TV because of the NCAA coverage on CBS. I'm guessing that's what happened with him.

For example, the Fab 5 of Michigan lore was HUGE in Toronto when I was growing up. Everyone was trying to emulate them because they loved the style of play, how they wore their uniforms and clothing. I even recall someone who was part of their 30 for 30, who is from Montreal, saying the same thing.

I'm a Duke MBB fan because of my HS basketball coach. Huge Coach K fan and would have us watch their games so we could better understand some of the plays he taught us. I'm not as up to date as I used to be, but when it comes to MBB, they're my favourite. So needless to say, I'm very disappointed I didn't know the acronym until now. There could have been some great fights during family dinner I could have started :cool:

I did some looking and tonight's huge game will be on ACCNX online but not on the RSN.... so no blackout in my area. :)

My condolences Triad.

Let us know if you need one of your northern Catholic friends to say a novena.

Devastating and humiliating loss for my Blue Devils. Seems like McCallie snuck in the gym and was coaching our team. :oops:

Next two games... Sunday at Louisville... Tuesday at home vs Ga Tech :(

My condolences Triad.

Not sure what that is, but it will heal Celeste Taylor quicker, we will take it

Sorry that didn't go down the way you wanted it to @triaddukefan . Unfortunately I think this result means you can't bag on UNC for being overrated for the rest of the season.

Didn't think the Duke-UNC game would go this way. Looking at the boxscore. WOW.

Why is no one talking about the riveting overtime slugfest between Pitt and Clemson???

These are two tough and gritty (is that the word?) POWER FIVE teams. And because they are POWER FIVE teams, that means that all these tough, gritty games they're playing are preparing them for a likely Final Four run.

ESPN sticking with airing WBB at 6:00 on Thursday picking up the rescheduled SC/Ole Miss game. Probably safe to assume the Rebels’ new status as a ranked team helped secure this.

Probably just figured that they already had the hotel rooms.

Someone last year definitely said you can never take Clemson lightly.

I remember that.

No more so than the P5 cult followers who, with a straight face, repeat such inane mantras.

Random thoughts--the 2 outgoing Vandy transfers have been fairly big disappointments with their new teams this year--Koi Love at Arizona and Chelsey Hall at Louisville. Love especially has done almost nothing, how in the world was she nearly a 20/10 player last season? (granted it was a very short season for Vandy)


Will anyone claim 3rd in the WCC? Of course, yes, someone has to, but it looks like it could be by process of elimination. I figured it would be San Diego, but they just lost to Portland to fall to 2-4. It looks like BYU is just head and shoulders above the rest of the conference, then you have Gonzaga, then you have...who cares?
