      We gave Michigan State a game for a good bit last year, so I believe we might for at least the first half. All depends on if Rob Robinson can get some early shots to fall so we have a consistent inside game to go with our sharp shooting from the perimeter.

        thats a given, but duke shouldnt be a one seed, and if they are, id love to see them be the first 1 seed to lose to a 16 seed...

          RMU matches up much better with Duke than the other 3. RMU doesn't really have an inside game and rely on their guard play as does Duke (I think anyway)

            Like I said, it all depends if Robinson decides to show up. He might be the most talented player in the entire conference, but he has played with zero heart this season.

            If Abraham's hitting from outside though, it could possibly be a ball game.

              i agree... a few years ago, VCU beat duke b/c of maynor and WVU did the same the next year b/c of mazzulla... duke struggles with good guards and i hope they lose as early as possible...

                lol Duke won't be losing to a RMU or whatever.

                teams Duke would lose to IMO...

                Kansas, Kentucky, Ohio State...that's off the top of my head....if I sat down, I'm sure i could think of 4-5 more teams I'd hope Duke wouldn't play in the tourney.

                  Syracuse?

                  And I never said that RMU would win, I'd just say they'd give them a game for some time.

                      I am hoping that Duke's loss to Maryland puts an end to the Duke is a #1 seed talk...but I am skeptical.

                        I have this urge to say that Kentucky's gonna have a good run, but drop in the final four, and Syracuse is gonna make the championship, if not win it.

                        I don't know near anything about college basketball, but I do watch SportsCenter. lol. It's just a hunch... Just a feeling.
                        Id be down for a rematch of the 96 season title game between Cuse and UK we'll just trade out John Wallace and Ron Mercer for Wesley johnson and Demarcus Cousins this time around.

                          I think Duke and Kansas State losing cleared the way for Ohio State if they win out and put in a good tourney performance

                            If Ohio State gets a 1 seed with 7 losses, that's just plain bullshit.

                              Well in the next polls they should move up to 4 or 5 and with a big ten tourney run I can certainly see it happening

                                They lost a lot of those games at the beginning of the year with Evan Turner out. I think 7 losses is a lot for a #1 seed, but I think Ohio State is probably one of the top 4 teams in the nation.
