Xavier is good but you got to wonder who long Chalmers, and Sato will continue to play out of their mind. I think they finally come back to earth and lose by 8.

Not a good game to play in my opinion.

DUKE blows them out and the over.

Here is REALLY WHY

DID anyone se how DUKE has this court and the rims down to science. The threes wil be falling for them, and they will HAVE a HIGH shooting percentage in this GAME, therefore. DUKE WINS BIG because of a high shooting percentage tomorrow

Don't bet against the Duke bias in college basketball.....any team that loses 5 out of their last 11 and still gets a number 1 seed....don't bet against them ever....t.v. wants Duke in this...thats how you knew Kansas was going to beat UAB...t.v. wants the big names....they were crying when arizona losr early...they were begging for a duke/arizona match-up.....don't eer forget that t.v. rules all this shit....ciao

Also remember that DUKE had very physical guards. They matchup well Defensively at the Guard Position AND the penetrate & Dish well on the Offensive end. XAVIER will keep it close for a while, but DIKE pulls away for the Cover in the end. They BIG GAME experience as well as the explosiveness will prove to be too much for X-Men.

DUKE wins by Double-Digits !!!

I like the Cugats. They have been a solid play
thoughout the tournament. Remember they blew
out St Joe and they showed today that they are
for real. Duke may get the W but I like the
points.

duke lives and dies with reddick.

if he is on, it will be tough for the xmen.

but to beat the teams they have beat and how they beat them is so impressive that i can't believe i have been betting against them.

probably a big jinx here, but long live the xmen.

Is Chris Duhon still hurting from his fall into the camera a few games back or is it considered a non-factor now?? He seemed to be wincing a little bit last night from what I could tell watching game on TV at the bar .... with Xavier's stellar guard play Duhon obviously will be a huge factor .... Redick still seems a bit inconsistent to me, I'm leaning towards taking the points.

If the guards cancel each other out,I think Duke has a huge edge up front. 8 seems like a lot but Duke does not miss free throws so if it comes down to that and a cover you have to like your chances.

If I have to listen to the announcers wet themselves everytime Duhon winces or falls on the floor I may throw a brick through the TV.

I think I like Duke, but my picks have sucked.

this ones looking like the texas game friday night. the line bounced between 2.5 to 3 and i had a bad feeling about that game. dukes line is bouncing a bit between 7.5 to 8 and thats a warning by my own numbers that its best to grab the points here. it happened today with st joes. by my numbers they were a 1.5 pt fav not a 3.5 pt dog. so im on kansas and xavier.

As much as I hate Duke, Xavier played two perfect games back-to-back, and it's hard to imagine them pulling off a third in this one.
That being said, I've put the Rx jinx on Duke, but I still expect them to blow them out UConn-style.

If you ask me, Duhon is a terrible ball-handling point guard....turns the ball over frequently...but again, gets the benefit of wearing the Duke shirt...just like they all do....this team is better than average, but give them the Duke label and put that potato headed Coach K. on their bench, and, well,they get the calls.....they are the media darlings....hard to bet against them
