Good article. Syracuse is without their center. We should win this game easily if we contain Boeheim. If we play our game we should win by double digits.
They can’t shoot worse then they did against us in Cameron so should expect career nights from some of their guys. We have to destroy them on both glasses.
Yup. As long as they don't start shooting out of their minds we should win easily. Jump on them early and take their confidence away
Take the crowd out of the game. I would think the game will be close to a sellout for Coach k's last game there. Although there should be a bit of apathy in the fan base as they have had a disappointing season.
I think it'll be a pretty crazy atmosphere not only with Duke/K, but because their crowds have remained decent this season (pretty sure).
They've won 6 straight home games -- granted, Wake Forest is the only decent team in those six -- and, at least for the WF game, they had a great crowd.
If they have won 6 straight home ACC games they are capable of beating us. But I still think we win by a dozen. Another good test for our guys. Would like to see Roach continue his good play.
We built our defensive game plan against Virginia about packing it in and defending the paint. This game will require the opposite.
If this team follows the pattern we have all season then we might lose Saturday. If this team has indeed turned a corner then we win in a workman like way. I don't expect a 30 point win, but 10-15 sounds about right.
