Maryland takes out Duke, 72-60.

Wow. There is even talk about Duke missing the NCAA tourney this year. Who could've imagined that???

Couldn't imagine the day where one of Coach K's teams was under-.500 in the ACC. Wow. Just... wow.

this duke team is just painful to watch. no hustle, no fire, no enthusiasm. I just don't understand it. I didn't see one player get mad over the horrible play they displayed today, not even coach K. At this point, we don't even deserve and invite to the NIT. WE ARE A LOST SHIP AT SEA!!!!!

Welcome aboard, true2royalblue, and thanks for joining us. Wish the news was a little better for your team right now, though. So lack of motivation and enthusiasm is the major problem plauging the team right now? Then what the heck can the Blue Devils do to get themselves back on track?

It seems that this late in the season, we are still looking for a line up that is consistently productive and we have yet to find it. Josh should be our go to guy but he acts as if he doesn't want that burden to be his alone. Paulus is at best a 2 guard because his floor leadership skills are very suspect and I think eventually he will become a shooting guard. And we need to be able to defend the other teams guards much better. Oh, and let's not forget the woeful percentage from the foul line. Still lots of work to be done at too many different aspects of our game. May be too late. The whole ACC sees blood in the water and it's royal blue!!!

Josh McRoberts scored 20 points and Greg Paulus had 12 for Duke, but it wasn't enough as the Blue Devils fell by a score of 72-60 Sunday. The Blue Devils' previous three losses were by a combined nine points and Duke did cut Maryland's lead to 56-50 late in the game before falling by 12 points.
