NC STATE/DUKE

[mitchellrabbit]

NC St knocks off unbeaten and number 2 ranked Duke at NC St. Shocked. Duke has so much more better recruits than NC St. How the heck can that happen?

Looks like another upset today. #4 Wisconsin loses to Rutgers at Rutgers. I wonder who has a better recruiting class? Rutgers had never beaten a top 5 team before. Expect the unexpected in college basketball.

NC St hit 10/16 threes and shot 55% overall from the field. Recipe for an upset.

Frank Kaminsky,Wisconsin's leading scorer and rebounder, didn't play because of a concussion. Also,their pg went out during the game with a sprained ankle.

I seem to recall studies done that show that by far the most difficult sport in which to win on the road is college basketball. Too lazy to look it up, of course, so I'll just post it here as a Discussion Board Fact.

I don't doubt that at all. I often wonder if we will ever see a team go undefeated again. I honestly don't think it will happen.

Media attention, playing on the road, etc. are just too great.
