when theres only 5 other conferences really and 2-3 are better then you are and youre supposed to be number 1 doesnt that make you a fraud?

You're talking about dumb???? You can't even put a complete sentence together and when you do you have no clue about punctuation.

Sagarin has the ACC ranked 4th which is about right to me. I think the Big 12 is better for sure. Big East is good but with a lot more teams to choose from than any other conference. Pac 10 is solid. The ACC is down this year compared to previous years but definitely not a fraud. You are clueless.

this isnt english class.  its a message board i had over 700 on the sat in english i could give a shit less about being grammatically correct on a message board.  this is about basketball not about box shit like english. overrated yes fraud maybe i was a bit harsh but wvus gonna win this game today.  duke has no defense at all.  wvu is more athetic and better on defense (way better).

Not so fast junior. Nearly every good win by WVU came on their home floor. They had 0 quality wins on the road and they now have 2 decent wins on a neutral court, UCONN and Arizona. Neither of those teams are Top 10 teams. Duke has been Top 10 all year long and are head and shoulders better than WVU right now.

 i guess well just have to find out at 2 o'clock.  by the way look at the spreads in all the 2 7 matchups this is the lowest opener by more then a point that should tell you all you need to know.

I guess you can't read either. I never said the public will be on WVU. I said the public is only on Duke 55% and it's now up to 57%. So there's quite a few people drinking the WVU Kool-Aid. I hate Duke. But I love them against this WVU team who has done nothing against good opponents away from home.

lowest opener by more than a point.   AN ENTIRE POINT???

I hate Dook as much as anyone but they are the class in this game.  Blue Devils will win easily if they hit at least 9 three pointers.
 
More importantly, what are the odds that that Jow Whatever guy, WV's only player, is froma  very shallow genetic pool?  Christ, could his eyes get any closer together and the Dumb and Dumber haircut does not help matters.
 
Or, what are the odds that Huggy bear has already cheated at that school?  3-1 I'd say.

Huggins reminds me of Nick Nolte in Blue Chip (or whatever that showcase of Penny Hardaway's acting talent is).  I can just see Huggy dropping of a nike bag full of cash and a tractor at Joe Alexander's dad's farm.  "Here you go Mr. Alexander...I look forward to coaching your son-brother.  Now let's go get a tenderloin sandwich."

a points a lot at this time of the year and thats only because butler is getting a lot of respect vs an overrated tennessee team.  gtown has a road game vs davidson and there still giving more.  the team thats getting the least in the seeding matchups always does well historically just look at it this year.  im not trying to fight with you seahawks i just dont think dukes any good at all and you still havent given me a good reason to think otherwise.

You may want to stop before you look even more foolish. How many reasons do you need? Duke has neutral court wins against Marquette and Davidson, 2 teams still in the tourney. A road win against UNC. A superior coach. Superior talent. Not sure what else you're looking for.

I see your dislike of the ACC. You had Clemson in a couple of ML parlays. They fucked you and now you won't be happy until every ACC team loses. It all makes sense now why you're hating the ACC.

Duke playing away from home is far from easy. Duke has trouble beating teams with solid guards. I'll take W. Virginia very small today because I think they are more battle tested because they played in a tougher conference. The ACC has excellent teams 1-4 but the Big East has a very slight difference 1-8. W.Vir couldn't have a bad game in conference or they would of lost. Plus the added factor that WV is playing a nationally renouned team in Duke for the past 30 years....WV will not be intimidated at all.

superior talent i doubt.  look how good duke players do in the nba. those marquette and davidson wins they didnt cover in those games either and they were 10 years ago. better coach yes but its not a mismatch.  anytime someone wants to go to duke they automatically make them a mcdonalds all american it seems. plus ur forgettin wvu is gettin 4.5 so if its close then wvu wins

i did have clemson and they screwed me big time but if you look before that i also said that was a make or break game for the acc really as they were against the 8th best big east team a team that many felt shouldnt have even beeen in the tourney.

This isn't the NBA. This is round 2 of the NCAA Tournament. I could give a shit if none of them get drafted. There's not one other person who know basketball that will say WVU has better talent than Duke. You ask for reasons, I give them to you, and you come back with some unbelievable comments. And as stated in my 1st post, I got Duke at - 3.5.

Nice job on the 650 posts this month so far. I've seen a million of you clowns. Discover the site, just go ape shit with the posts, find out you're clueless on sports, and are never heard from again.

ull see me around thats a promise.  you gave me reasons now but the point is they still didnt cover those games.  and wvu has an atheletism advantage at every position on the court while they may not have a skill advantage theres a difference.

You're already backtracking. Now you're talking about covering when before you were claiming a double digit victory. Nearly every Duke opponent is more athletic than them. But who usually wins?? I hope you do stick around. I'll just look you up whenever I need a good laugh.

if you asked me i would say the acc historically has the best conference.  thats not the case this year.  not even in the top 3.  i keep saying if belmont can get easy layups time after time against duke why couldnt wvu.

Hmmm. That's funny. According to your "report card" you had the ACC ranked 3rd coming into the tournament. Belmont and WVU run completely different offenses. That's why.
