Beat Duke

Submitted by Willis Ward on
Football is my first and true love, and yesterday was both beautiful and awful. BUT that was yesterday. We are now three days away from a chance to knock off Duke. So...beat Duke! Like they stole something. Maybe they stole your soul? Your childhood? Something even more important? Why do you hate Duke?

Because they get calls from officials that aren't there. I hate the obnoxious fans in Cameron indoor and I hate how Dickie V gushes about anybody that plays their like they're the second coming. I hate how it seems they always play at home in the Big Ten ACC challenge (though I'm sure it's not the case) I just don't like them !!!! Go Blue beat Duke !!!!!

GRIII was watching Gardner today.  When you put everything into it, the impossible is possible. 

Jabari Parker is an amazing player.  Honestly, I think he is the best player in college basketball and would compete with MCW for rookie of the year honors if he was in the NBA this year.  But GRIII you can go toe-to-toe with him.  Just play with the heart that DG had today.  You can do it. 

It's going to be tough.  And honestly, in Cameron, against a great team my head tells me we can't do it today.  But I hope they take some inspiration from our football team and leave it all out there. 

Go blue

when the fab 5 were at Michigan, watching the tournament and losing to them crushed me and hated them since. When you're a kid its more dramatic and emotions run higher.

It's dook, I make a funny.

The Daily Tarheel always spells it dook as do most of the students in chapel hill. It's their/our version of calling them ohio.

Beat dook!

Go blue.

and my freshman year was 2009-2010. That was one of the greatest basketball games ever played, but I still hate Duke. They've had so many unlikeable players throughout the years. They are the ultimate sports villian.

Butler alum here too (93-97).  That final four game was amazing.  I had seats in the nosebleed section of Lucas Oil and for an additional rub I was sitting by these nasty Sparty fans (I know go figure).  So after Butler beat them, I turned to them and said "Go Blue" lol.... they didn't talk to me again.

My Dad is a Michigan alum, my Mom is a Duke alum.  If we win, poor pops will be taking her out for dinner for a week, cause he won't be getting any home cooking!

GO BLUE!

Don't hate Duke. In fact, they have been the mold of what I would want in any basketball team for some time now. That said, I am a Michigan fan first in everything. Go Blue

Hating Duke is akin to msu hating us. DUKE HAS DONE THINGS THE RIGHT WAY AND HAS EARNED IT. Good for them. Great program. Lets beat them but they have my respect and should have yours
