The good thing about this game is that it'll hopefully obliterate any and all undefeated talk.

I don't really mind the talk, besides it'll all come right back if we are still undefeated after Texas.

If it ever goes away that is, this game is probably more likely to be written of as a team that just doesn't care about playing hard on a night when they can get away with it. Which isn't the kind of habit you win national titles with, but it is still early in the season and Cal has a lot more coaching to get done.

Definitely gotta work on our zone offense though, that looked ugly for long stretches, especially with the white platoon.

Booker finally caught fire though, which is a good sign.

I'm at rupp right now.

This might be one of the worst officiated games I've ever seen.

Just be glad you didn't have to listen to the broadcast.

How many other teams have to deal with a homer broadcaster from the opponent at home games? When he was wanting a flagrant on Towns(after they got the call wrong, Towns was fouled first, the guy blatantly wrapped up his arm to try and deny the post entry), I was about to throw something at my TV.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

This Duke-Temple game is raggedy

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Duke's second platoon is in.

40-0, write it down.

At least a solid 28-7.

o god grover,

what did you do

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Gunners are out tonight

Can't wait for the good ol' "DUKE SHOOTS TOO MANY 3ssssssss" shouts on The Worldwide Leader

 

[Grover Cleveland]

OH GOD WINSLOW'S LIMPING

TEBOW HAVE MERCY ON US

WAS KYRIE'S TOE AND RYAN'S FOOT NOT ENOUGH?

Never mind: we good. Just a rolled ankle

 

[pxleyes]

We got a llloooooonnnnnggggg way to go.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Is Florida going to blow this game?

Also, gg Cal. Seems like every time Cal made a little run, Texas came back with an answer.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Temple has like 73 blocks in the first 15 minutes of this game.

Thank god we're not playing UK right now.

 

[Elfforkusu]

100+ points in two consecutive games.

That's... allowed to happen? We aren't breaking any rules, right? Right?

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Duke's played like absolute dogshit and is still probably going to halftime with a double-digit lead.

That's better than nothing I guess

And another motherfucking block...

 

[Elfforkusu]

Also, :lol Florida.

 

[pxleyes]

We won somehow! Got a lot of growing pains to go through with this bunch. Billy will have them ready by March.

You got nothing to worry about. Louisville as going to miss more 3s tonight that Duke takes.

Ugly game. Cal just couldn't get anything going against the Texas defense. You'll be tough to beat this season if you keep playing like that.

Ha Jesus. That bad?

 

[Randolph Freelander]

When Greg Anthony calls Duke games, does the back of his mind think back more to 1990 or 1991?

 

[iamblades]

Ha Jesus. That bad?

Yeah, dude was a former BU coach with a terrible grating new england accent and all.

Looks like the prodigal son, prince of the Empire, heir apparent to the throne, Johnny Dawkins gets his first shot at the old man tomorrow.

I hope we can keep it up, and was encouraged that losing Isaiah Taylor to injury last night didn't slow us down tonight. You guys will have a good season as long as you keep your front 4 healthy and fit.

It's like a five- or six-headed monster they've got down there. You cut off one head and they bring three more after you. They're a big team and I don't know if there's any other frontline in college that could match that frontline.

ffs fell asleep and we lost, going to be another 22-17 type season sigh

Nevada in basketball, Georgia State in football. Fun day.

I know its just the early cupcake season, but MY GOD how refreshing it is to see the Illini obliterating teams they should. This team is going to be so fun to watch. I can't wait to see how we do in the B1G this year, they ain't ready for us.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

I see the annual "Davidson hangs around with UNC for 30 minutes and then runs out of gas" game is going on.

 

[vas_a_morir]

I'm starting to idiotically buy into the hype. "UK only won by 24? frauds!" I mean, wtf. That's a blowout.

Marshall got rekt, tho.

There are definitely some legit concerns. Hill has gotten worse at shooting so teams are basically daring him to shoot. Chris Walker also has a long way to go. But besides that, I don't think you can take away too much from the game. DFS and Carter were out, and they were 2 of our best offensive players. So unsurprisingly, we struggled a lot on offense.

Brice picks up so many fouls lmao

No BS, I might be one of this UNC team's biggest fans at Duke.

I keep trying to tell people "UNC got a squad. UNC gonna be nice this year" and no one believes me.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Johnny Dawkins (who I basically consider the eldest son of the Coach K family) returns to face Pops tonight.

The youngest son, Steve Wojciechowski, just brought shame and dishonor to the family by having his Marquette team lose to Omaha at home.

Omaha

At Home!

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Thanks, Omaha.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Duke is up 10 on Duke West in the first half. I want to see Okafor touch the ball more.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

K up 11 over K Jr at the half. Still need more touches for Okafor.

Nastic just set tall white dudes playing basketball back about 25 years.

My man couldn't even get a point-blank wide-open layup on the rim.

He's no Plumlee. And then Cook with the 3 at the other end to rub some salt into the wound.

Papa K once again gets the better of one of his children.

He's now 19-1 against the acolytes (with the lone defeat coming to Brey last year in a game we won't talk about)

Quinn Cook has unlocked his final form.

Now you've done it. It's been jinxed. Thanks.

Nah, he's just going to be consistent forever from now on. He has attained godhood.

Colorado scored 9 points in the 2nd half against Wyoming. Just 9

Ok, yes it is.
