Duke Blue Devils Rolling Over Everyone

The Duke Blue Devils are having an excellent season so far, especially on the heels of their fairly effortless victory over a top ten team last night. Duke, ranked No. 4 in the nation in the latest AP Poll, beat No. 9 Purdue 76-60 in the Big10/ACC Challenge. The game should have been an exciting, hard fought one, but it appears that despite the tremendous talent that’s on the Boilermakers’’ squad, Coach K has the Devils in top form already. Does anybody think that the Duke-North Carolina matchups are shaping up to be epic this season? If trends continue, we might have a Duke-UNC game that pits a No. 1versus a No. 2. I hope we didn’t just jinx it.

But fear not Boilermakers, there are plenty of opportunities to make up for a loss to Duke, as the Big Ten has a few easy teams (although there are some exceptions) that you ought to pound in the conference portion of the season. Just ask Coach K, who said this about the B-Makers:

”We think at the end of the season, Purdue will be one of those teams that has a chance.”
