Another big Saturday game- Duke welcomes a UVA team that might be the most underrated team in the nation. Ranked 11th only 3 loses- pretty dang impressive. I do think we are on another level but this should be a great game. We wrap up the ACC with a win

Duke- 92
UVA-77

I really hope we do not give up 77 points. Our guards need to be on point, that will be the difference maker. No foul trouble + being locked in defensively should get us a comfortable win

We need 2 get rid of “DukeGuru” in here. The poster is not a guru of any thing, the poster is a troll.

the idiot claimed (conveniently after Duke lost to Unc a few weeks ago) Duke would lose 3-4 more games before the post season started and never celebrates any Duke wins.

The poster is a pathetic unc or kentucky fan trying 2 stir stuff up on our board. Pisgah (u r the only active mod) I know on this board, please disperse of “DukeGuru”, because I can assure you the idiot won’t post again on DI until if/when Duke loses again the remainder of the 2025-2026 Men’s College Basketball Season.

better 2 disperse of the trash immediately

There was only one guru in college basketball and that was Gary7 over at THR.

When the switch happened they took the mod stuff away. I’m not sure who is actually a mod on here at all!

I think it's the same keys to success today as it has been for a while. Pat must stay out of foul trouble, and we need decent contributions for our guards. At home, I expect Evans to shoot better today. Someone off the bench putting up 10 would be big! It's no cake walk, but I have Duke by 10 today.

The way UVA defended this half made me wonder if Odom didn’t get a call from Rick Barnes. That dunk attempt by Sarr early in the half reminded me of watching one of those videos where the fat guy tries to jump off the mini trampoline and dunk. You wonder why he’s even trying.

Stay focused for 20 more minutes.

Cayden
Harris
Sarr
Khamenia
Brown

Duke is The Best Defensive Team in The Country!!!!

Coach Scheyer has Brought The Defense back to Duke Men's Basketball!!! He always wants his teams to be playing Strong Defense as soon as the season tips off and then by Conference Play he has his teams integrate the offense.

Defense Travels!!!

I love Foster’s line today.

5 pts, 6 rbs, 6 assists and onky 1 TO.

The only TO was in the last minute or so.

Would like a few more points but that’s a solid game.

And I can’t believe it but he’s finally playing more like a PG.

Yeah he had a really good game. He missed some easy baskets that he would normally make 80-90% of the time but that may have been due to UVA shot blockers.

Foster has drawn criticism over his time at Duke, but his game has improved. His defense is solid, and he rebounds really well, especially for a guard. On offense, he knows his role. The kid isn’t a volume shooter, which makes him that much more valuable in my opinion. I actually wish he’d take a few more shots each game.
Khamenia is looking solid too. The kid just needs to stop with the silly fouls. We need him on court a little more, because as good as Sarr is on defense, he’s weak on offense.

For some reason I can't post from my phone, so here I am, well after the fact.

That was a beatdown. I think we took UVA out by the 10 minute mark of the first half. I would have liked to have seen fewer wide open threes for them, but otherwise, Duke's defense was stellar. I thought our length on the perimeter really threw them off their game. If we play like that from here on out, I love our chances of getting to the final four, and from there, anything is possible.
