    Heytvelt, PAC, and Pargo can all hold their own pretty well defensively. You have no idea what you're talking about.

    But Raivio is a scrub.

      okay pal, thanks for the heads up.

      Georgia scored 96 points on Gonzaga.

      Enough said.

      How do you give 96 points up to anyone? Let alone an average UGA squad.

          That's just one game. I could name many great defensive teams that have given up tons of points to one team during a season, but it didn't diminish their defensive play as a whole on the season. One game does not make a team. And by the way, Georgia isn't too shabby a team.

            I gotta give props to Duke's D. They did shut down Raivio hardcore, took us out of our game. Good W for you guys.

                And Gonzaga beat Washington by 20. But yet Duke beat Gonzaga. Hmmm...

                  Maryland? Come on. Honestly I think Duke could beat a lot of those teams on that list. Do I think they could compete with UCLA or Florida or UNC? No way. I'm not sold on Pitt yet, though I'm sure they will probably be very good. UCONN and Alabama haven't played anybody yet. I don't think anyone should dimiss Duke as a non top twenty team before the conference schedule even starts.

                    I realize, I also realize where the game was played. Georgetown beat Duke last year, but Duke was still a better team.

                    Maryland? Come on. Honestly I think Duke could beat a lot of those teams on that list. Do I think they could compete with UCLA or Florida or UNC? No way.

                    Maryland healthy will be good. I'm not sold on Pitt either, but I still think they are better. UCONN, I don't really like, but I really am a fan of Bama. You can't have everyone as a top 20 team, I think they will be a solid 5-6 seed, but I don't think they have an elite team this season.

                          I agree on Pitt. Haven't seen enough of Bama to comment. I really have no idea how good UCONN will be. At least Duke has beaten quality competition, on the road, unlike UCONN. As for Wichita State they were just thrashed two games in a row.

                          As long as we are talking about teams we're not sold on I'll ad Texas A&M. Their two big games against big time ranked opponents they got beat. I know they were on the road but they have not beaten anybody either. I'm not saying Duke is better I'm just saying they're a little overrated. IMO, Duke could easily be a 5 or a six seed but with a win over Carolina and a deep run in the ACC Tourney I think they could be a 3 or 4 as well.

                            I'm doing no such thing. I agree the teams ranked in front of us are way better than we are on both ends of the floor. I don't think Duke is a great team nor a top 5 team, but I also don't think the teams ranked behind us are above and shoulders better than we are either.
