yep today at 4:30 is the game.
yep today at 4:30 Duke loses.


im callin the loss, i didnt forget boys.

1/2/2006 2:59:58 PM

Im calling I hope you are right. Although I want Duke to be #1 when we play them it would be nice to see the Dukies knocked off.

1/2/2006 3:00:51 PM

I won't be too upset either way. It would be nice for us to be the first team to beat them, but then we have a propensity to crash and burn after toppling #1.

1/2/2006 3:02:11 PM

Do you seriously think Bucknell is capable of beating Duke, or are you just going off the fact that the media blows them constantly for beating overrated teams?

1/2/2006 3:03:51 PM

Virginia Tech beat Duke last year. Anything can happen in college basketball. You should know that by now.

1/2/2006 3:20:02 PM

Is it possible? Sure.

But the odds are seriously against it.

Everyone thinks, "Oh, Bucknell beat Kansas and Syracuse!" when Self is clearly out of his league at Kansas, and Syracuse just blows this year. On the other hand, when Bucknell played Nova (a legitimately good team this year) they basically got blown out.

Nothing against Bucknell, but I really don't think they're the miracle giant-killers everyone sees them as.

nothing to contribute, so i'll just go out brick tamland style:



LOUD NOISES!!!

GOD BUCKNELL IS AWESOME

1/2/2006 4:55:57 PM

Felchionni for 3!

1/2/2006 4:56:11 PM

hes callin the loss, boys

1/2/2006 4:57:35 PM

Does Duke ever play any away games?

1/2/2006 5:13:44 PM

i think just indiana and uncg

1/2/2006 5:15:01 PM

^^Not since K took over. They might lose then. And yet everyone raves about their horrendous schedule. Even the "tough" games are at neutral sites like Texas earlier but still it was a Duke crowd.

^Indiana was part of the Big Ten challenge, K cant use that. UNCG was a neutral game too. There were WAY more Duke fans there.

[Edited on January 2, 2006 at 5:16 PM. Reason : ^]

1/2/2006 5:15:19 PM

yep, and that indiana game he had no control over. i'm actually really surprised he played uncg, but you notice it was at the coliseum where plenty of dookies could buy tickets

1/2/2006 5:17:11 PM

The Duke radio broadcast of the UNCG game was pretty funny.

Everyone's been reporting all year about how K schedules games at tourney sites, and of course that's the reason they went to Greensboro. But no, according to the radio broadcast, it was so one of his players could be in front of his hometown crowd.

1/2/2006 5:20:13 PM

^Yeah really.

Only player from the state of NC and never sees the court. Nice reason K. God I hate Duke.

1/2/2006 5:23:23 PM

the quesstion was does duke ever play away games. not does coach k ever schedule non conference games in a tough arena. the uncg game was a home game for uncg (they would be silly to play a game that big in a gym) it just happens that to be more duke fans in greensboro than greensboro fans. coach k schedules games to get ready for the tournament. early road games are good for making statements but coach k has ntohing to prove. the conference road games are enough.

1/2/2006 5:24:08 PM

41-17 with 3 minutes to go in the 1st half.

Duke may break 100 today.

1/2/2006 5:25:46 PM

BUCKNELL IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD

1/2/2006 5:32:03 PM

Bucknell lookin' good so far.... i really think they have a chance to pull off the upset! let's just hope they don't have a second half let-down.

1/2/2006 5:33:29 PM

Hmmmm, I wonder if JT3bucky will come back to this thread.

Maybe to make an excuse or two...

"[Duke] will lose to Bucknell" - JT3bucky

That should do.

1/2/2006 6:06:22 PM

I called it in that thread, and I called it in this one.

Score one for me.

1/2/2006 6:07:35 PM

well they arent going away without a battle the second half, still time left.

1/2/2006 6:08:09 PM

Wrong.

1/2/2006 6:31:13 PM

you sure are suckin off Duke mighty hard. I just hate Duke point blank and always want to see them lose. It woulda been a nice upset prediction but obviously Bucknell cant match up down low against Williams, I only hope that Ced can at least partially match up against him for us, either him or Brackman. Bucknell still is a good team just cant match up down low. As for Duke i still dont think they are the best team in the nation, i will leave that to nova or UConn but nova gets my nod.

heres to beating duke when we play them, 0-1 so far with my predictions.

and to you Duke Dick suckers, how was the football season for you

1/2/2006 6:39:25 PM

^lmao

1/2/2006 6:40:41 PM

^^ typical response from someone who just had their asinine prediction blow up in their face.

Congratulations Bucknell on a great upset!

typical response? wtf

i just admitted that i was wrong and that the match up wasnt as good as I thought. As for the crying baby pic, no crying here bud no attachment to the game whatsoever just wanted them to lose.

glad to see the Duke bandwagon is out in full force though now that football is over. might want ur PG to play football as well because on the field it just aint happening for the Blew Devils.

I just find it hilarious that you thought Bucknell would match up great with Duke.

1/2/2006 7:06:55 PM

you people forget that coach k plays duke coaches and alumni to help them establish their program...a lot of the "easy" games that you all complain about are scheduled because of the coach's connection to duke

i don't see any duke fans in this thread... just basketball fans that knew Bucknell wouldn't hang with Duke (not including you of course).

you were wrong and everyone that was right is a "Duke Dick sucker".... sour grapes huh?

1/2/2006 7:12:07 PM

im a duke fan

and i dont even see any pro-duke posts by me in this thread

1/2/2006 7:13:25 PM

"lol" is the new DDS

1/2/2006 7:17:45 PM

god this thread is quality.

there is a reason it would have been called an upset if bucknell won.

What former coach have they played this year? They could play Notre Dame or Michigan then. Of course they would have to come to Durham.

still people shouldn't let him get away with that shit

but I guess K knows how to work the system

1/3/2006 12:12:14 AM

coach K is a fucking celebrity.

of course he gets soft soaped when he wants it.

1/3/2006 12:18:51 AM

"get away with" what?

They can set the schedule however they want. And if the fanbase isn't complaining and it isn't hurting their ranking, then it's smart.

[Edited on January 3, 2006 at 12:20 AM. Reason : Come on, there are MUCH better reasons to hate the guy than the fucking schedule]

1/3/2006 12:19:48 AM

since K is apparently so high on wanting "tourney" experience early in the season, you'd think he would want some road games to get a feel for different reffing styles. all that hand checking shit don't fly with big 10 and big east officials calling games

1/3/2006 12:21:03 AM

i'm a big duke fan, so i could care less

You ignorant biased fucks should look up Duke's strength of schedule. It's currently #4 in the nation. The next closest team in the ACC is Maryland at #41. UNC is #73 and NC State is #202.

By the way, go back and look at Duke's past SOS'. They are perennially high and finished at #4 last season.

Dumbasses.
