Are you kidding me?? Duke lost to Miami. Looking to bounce back from a tough loss to Wake Forest, the Devils once again stumbled against conference foe Miami. A bit of history was made to as this was Miami's first win against the Devils in 45 years.
Miami made six of eight free throws in the final 41 seconds to preserve the upset. Duke's Nelson sank a layup with 2 seconds left to make the score 94-92, but McClinton sank two clinching free throws before Nelson hit a meaningless 3-pointer at the buzzer.
In a bit of another news down tobacco road, UNC dominated NC State. Now Duke and Carolina are tied in conference record. I look forward to the showdown at Duke in early March. The game presumably sets up which team will be a first seed in a tournament bracket. Considering the first two rounds would be in Durham and Charlotte respectively, the game is that much more important.
I for one have a tip for Coach K after the Miami game: The showdown against UNC is still a week away. Worry about your own team coach.
