Duke - Tennessee

[schooner2]

Anybody getting the Duke-Tennessee game? Not getting it here in Norman.

I couldn't get it either...I was trying to follow it by the live stats or the yahoo radio and didn't manage either.

Tennessee won big though.....89-68....."Tennessee scored 19 straight points in the second half and was never threatened by the Blue Devils, who fell to 9-3"

sounds like it wasn't much of a contest, the second half anyway, Duke was only down by 9 points. Duke certainly is an unpredictable team.

Duke is also a very "thin" team since two of their experienced players quit the team a few weeks back. They might have run out of steam toward the end.

As much as I hate to say it, this year its shaping up to be:

1. UConn
1a. Tennessee
2. Everybody else

ESPN's dream is coming true. http://hoopscoop.net/ubb/frown.gif

Well, so far they are definitely the cream of the crop. But, I still believe they are beatable. Stanford played TN close, though it was a home court for them.
Though UConn is clearly the better team, OU showed that they can play with them. A neutral court, a few more shots fall, and maybe you have an upset. Purdue is playing well. Vanderbilt will have improved by March over their performance against Uconn in the WNIT. ISU can't be ruled out either. So, maybe those 2 are heads and shoulders above the rest, but there are still some teams out there that are capable of an upset on any given night.

Oh yeah, I think Uconn is better than TN and should beat them on Jan 5.
