[UOducksTK1]

Who is going?

[oregontrack]

I'm claiming victory if we finish within 25.

Oregon will get crushed, but I give them a lot of credit for scheduling this game. In the long run, the ducks will be a better team for playing a team like Duke.

[gregspechtismyhero]

I'm going. A chance to see the #1 team in the country? Yes please. Plus I've never been to a UO basketball game before so I'm excited.
Anyone know if theres a chance to sneak up close if I buy 300 level tix?

As a current employee of UNC I say fuk dook!!

[MFRDuckFan]

I can't wait to watch the Singler brothers play against each other. Many from Southern Oregon are very excited about this game. We are all fully aware that Duke will prevail, but how many brothers go head to head? Proud of both of the boys.

getting ugly quickly

getting ugly quickly

Yup. I was hoping we'd be able to keep the game within 30. Maybe Duke will take it easy on us in the 2nd half.

[Duck07]

I'm real giddy that Kevin Colabro and Marques Johnson are calling this game. Been a long-time since they called the Kemp/Payton era Sonics games together.

[Boom]

It's amazing how large the talent gap is at every single position on the floor.

[uostudent]

It sounds like a Duke home game. I wish our basketball program was better supported. Hopefully, Altman can help change the culture.

[Duck07]

As long as this team keeps playing hard all game long it will at least count as a moral victory; which is the best you could have hoped for going in. We will always make comparisons between EK and DA and after today, this team will have played the defending NC in each of the last two seasons so seeing how the teams respond will be interesting. From a schematic standpoint, Oregon is doing what they can but its clear that they're playing friggin Duke.

[oregontrack]

Yeah, it looks like Duke is playing their less-talented scout team.
