Besides that, I dont think Duke has a problem with "confidence". Why should they? They beat Maryland by over 20 at home and should they lose this game it would hardly shake their confidence and beating them again would hardly make them more confident.

Sure there is something at stake but i dont think this is that important.

You nailed it, Duke was set up for a loss and played better than I thought it would. The bottom line is you can still pencil the Dookies in for a Sweet 16 loss, except this time you can actually make some $$$ betting against them.

The scheyer kid has turned into a decent player but I don't know what people are smoking when they are talking acc player of the year or that he will be a pro player of any account. I guess he could be a spot up three shooter somewhere but he is about as slow and unathletic as it gets.

I agree about Duke. The ACC is about to get 5-7 teams in the tournament and not one of them has a snowball's chance for the title. This MD team and any of the teams other than duke are all very capable of getting bounced in the first round.

Nolan Smith and Singler are better weapons but Scheyer has really improved his game off the bounce. He's obviously too slow to be a viable NBA prospect but he's a solid college player.
