Tonight's Big Game
Nothing really catches my eye. Maybe we should all just plan on watching “Moment of Truth” and give college hoops a rest for an evening. Deal?
Alright, alright already.
Duke (19-1) at
Alright, not like we really need to add any hype to tonight's Carolina-Duke game, but honestly, this one is even bigger than usual. While it’s always a big game when Duke and North Carolina play, tonight's match-up gets even more of a national boost from the return of Dickie V and unexpectedly good play of Blue Devils. While we ruled against a live-blog (if you are watching it already, why do we need to tell you what’s going on?) so we’ll leave this post up as kind of a live comment. Just drop a comment if you got something to say. STF is based on passion for college basketball, and few teams bring out more passion than Carolina and Duke.
And as an adding bonus, some picks! Feel free to make fun of the loser in the morning!

Unfortunately for the Heels, Ty Lawson is out for this game, which should turn the game in favor of Duke. With Bobby Frasor out as well, the game is in the hands of Quentin Thomas. Paulus and the rest of the Blue Devil defense will need to get in his face and force turnovers that like have in the past to ensure a win. Should be a great matchup between two elite teams. Winner gets the inside track on the #1 seed in the East, and a Raleigh/Charlotte road to San Antonio.
Looks like Lawson is going to play....how effective he will be is another question
Our ACC correspondent seems to be right, Duke defensive game plan seems to focused on shutting down Ellington. He was also correct about Hansbrough scoring 50
Duke's inside game is worse than I thought
OMG Thomas is so fucking terrible
Yeah really, his turnovers certainly aren't helping the Heels. Duke may run away with this if they continue to shoot treys at that pace....
But nice late half rally by the Heels...
Why is Coach K's face so weirdly puffy? Makes him look both devilish AND bloated.
