dock beats the clock
#1 Duke over VT, 77-75. you know, games like this don't really inspire confidence. i guess i should just chalk it up to the toughness of the ACC but really, the #1 ranked team that was a "no brainer" preseason final four pick really shouldn't need an improbable last second play to pull out the W. i said it before, but it just had to be said again.
The 40-foot shot floated toward the net as the Cameron faithful watched, hoping Duke could overcome an overall lackluster effort with one unlikely play. The ball rattled in, giving the Blue Devils the two-point win and sending the fans into hysteria. [via the chronicle]
update: I just realized the game will be held in NJ at the Meadowlands (a neutral site). that's a relief. every little bit helps, right?
