Out of the Bubble and into the…

Did anybody notice that Duke was unranked last week for the first time since the ESPN/USA Today poll?  Well I did.  Let me tell you about it.  The Blue Devils reemerged into No. 17 after they took care of business against B.C. and Georgia Tech.  But before that, they were nowhere to be seen. 
 

Love ‘em or hate ‘em, the Blue Devils seem to be on the right track now, and if they can put together a good SEC performance, they might move a little further away from The Bubble, up around… 
 

Well, what do they call it?  The area in the rankings between the twenties Bubble, and the Top Five?  The area of the rankings where Kansas, Memphis and Pitt seem to have found a home?  I think I’ll call it, the Monster Energy Drink Performance Six through Thirteen Presented by Pabst Blue Ribbon. 
 

If you think that college hoops phrases need to be slowed down with some sponsoring, don’t get Final Four or Sweet Sixteen tickets at StubHub.com.  Somebody is losing a lot of ad space, but not me.
