Duke Tired

[Divedoc]

I'm embarrassed to say that I went to bed with @ 12 mins to go. I'll watch the end today. I thought Duke looked tired and lethargic the first 3/4 of the game. Tre was not his usual fast, energetic self. Then I heard probably why: Duke's flight was delayed 3 hours by bad weather and they didn't get to Louisville until 12:30 am the night before the game. They probably didn't get to sleep until 2-3 am. That and playing a Saturday night game against Virginia probably resulted in significant sleep deprivation and fatigue. It's too bad they have to play under those conditions not to mention on the road against a good team (rested). Unbelievable win; great character !!!

Wait, what? Duke travels and plays road games? What schedule are you looking at? Duke only plays in Cameron and MSG with the occasional appearance in a pre-season invitational.
What is this foolishness you're talking about flights and travel and road games?

Unx had it much worse. They had an overtime game against one of the conference bottom feeders, then had to turn around and play uva two days later at home. That’s waaaaaaay more difficult then playing at uva then at Louisville back to back.....come on guys be real.

Luckily, Duke has a friend in the ACC Commissioners office. Oh, wait...

You are so biased against them man......you aren't taking into consideration that maybe they had some really late and really tough classes to attend!!!
