Look, pal, your last name is Kurrzeezewski. You don't get to make up some nonsense pronunciation - the letters are what they are Kurzeezewski.  You're trying to steal from some guy named Chechevsky

Hope Michigan can handle OSU tomorrow. Going to be a fun game to watch and would be cool to get to #1. I know they won't be able to hang on to it all season, B1G on the road is too tough to win with regularity, but it would be a nice bonus to beating a rival.

Kinda like the ones that say that Duke is "stunned." What a crock. The Pack's a good team, playing at home, in a conference game. It should be a real surprise to anyone.

No biggy.

College ball is amazing. More people need to realize how much college football blows.

NCSU has underwhelmed this year per their expectations, but by no means is this a big upset. Duke, meanwhile, is good, but not world beaters. The ACC is kind of crap, though, so there weren't many other teams that could beat them there.

Meanwhile, Kentucky blows.

It's ok. We'll still be a #1 seed in March. Then we'll see.

State has had one game that it shouldn't have lost (OK State). I wouldn't exactly say State has underwhelmed.

It was not perfect, but we outshot and out boarded them today.

First time 3-0 ACC since 88-89

Meanwhile, Kansas dicked around with Tech for a half, but got away with it for a 14 or so point win. The championship team in '07 had a similar regular season- they would beat some teams by seemingly comfortable margins, but still walk away with a ticked off coach.

If Ellis or Traylor develop during Big XII play, Kansas becomes the strong favorite to win the national championship. The only concern is the pretty soft schedule, especially since their win at Ohio State isn't looking as impressive now as it did at the time.

Congratulations to State - they needed a big win to validate the hype that got them a preseason Top 10 ranking, and even though Kelly is gone, that should take nothing away from the fact that Wood and Howell kept this team together, and Calvin Leslie came through big-time. This puts them back on track to get back into the Top 10. Hopefully they'll eventually prove they're an Elite 8-Final 4 team...

...just as long as they at least lose in Chapel Hill. You don't need to go undefeated in-conference.

An underwhelming 14-2 and now on an 11 game winning streak. Lots of teams would love to be that underwhelming.

Tell it to the pollsters. Before today they have looked disappointing to most.

Richard Howell is the engine that makes that team go. Calvin is good and all, but this team feeds off Howell, they did last year, and again this year. Nice win and way to put last year in Durham out of mind. There are 5 more of these games, 1 more Duke vs State, 2 State vs UNC, and 2 UNC vs Duke....can't wait.

As soon as Ryan Kelly got hurt last week, any Duke fan who knew anything about the team was seriously worried about this game. NCSU did a great job, and Duke didn't play up to the level they are capable of. Certainly an upset, but not a surprise.

...we'll see duke lose unexpectedly to a five seed for like the eighth time this decade?

In all seriousness, they have more first round exits than elite 8 appearances in the last 8 years

yes duke sucks. NCSU was preseason favorite to win the ACC. Duke @ NCSU? the wolf pack should have held serve at home.

that the packs 2 BIG GAME so far this year( L @ Michigan). Duke has played a tough schedule so far and with 2 possible starters out it will only get worse.
