Duke looks to rebound in ACC Tournament

It’s been a while since I’ve updated the site as I’ve been very busy with work, the little kid and trying to get things done around the house. Just haven’t had time to update the blog but have still watched the games of course. Nice win on Senior night for the three Seniors but then a lackadaisical game on Saturday against North Carolina. It’s always tough to play at the Dean Dome but it was kind of embarrassing watching the guys play that game and be down by 10 points for pretty much the entire game.

North Carolina may have won the regular season ACC crown, but the tournament is a whole another ball game. Things get started today and Duke will play the winner of the NC State vs Maryland game. I expect Maryland to come away with a victory over NC State and then face Duke on Thursday. We may just see another Duke vs Carolina rematch in the tournament which will settle the 1-1 series tie for this season.

I’m really looking forward towards the tournament and will try keeping up with it as much as I can here at work and then at home in the evenings. Expect to see some upsets but they won’t be as “big” of ones as the conference is down this season. Should be an interesting tournament and hopefully the Blue Devils can get back on track and win the tournament crown and head to the NCAA Tournament on a high note.
