If you’re not going to punish Duke for losses while missing Kelly, you can’t punish Miami for losses when they were missing their best guys

We can go round and round on this – by that logic, Duke is 1-0 vs. Miami this year. The Wake and GT losses were also full-strength for UM. Also if you’ve watched Miami this year Reggie Johnson is not one of their best guys. Fwiw Duke beat Florida Gulf Coast by 21 around the same time FGC beat Miami.

Miami is not going to get a 1 over Duke. Losses to Wake, GaTech (home), Florida Gulf Coast and Indiana State.

FYI, Florida Gulf Coast made the NCAA tournament. Also, Miami was missing key players at the beginning of the season when they had those losses (same time period when they beat Michigan State). If you’re not going to punish Duke for losses while missing Kelly, you can’t punish Miami for losses when they were missing their best guys

Love Dez and he got screwed over by the school.

Miami has dreadful losses and “Miami” on the front of their jerseys.

I’m a Terps fan and I still don’t think this is enough to get them in. Kentucky losing helped, but blowing that 17 point lead to Virginia sealed their fate. If they beat UNC, ok. Right now though they’re out even though two wins over duke is better than anything any other bubble team can show.

How can the committee deny Miami a No. 1 seed if the Hurricanes win the ACC tournament after winning the regular season title? They can’t.

Losses to Georgia Tech and Wake Forest, combined conference record of 12-24 in a down year. Losing to Indiana State doesn’t help either.

Yawwwwwnnnnnnn. As that is no longer relevant, let’s move on to which first or second round team is going to send Duke home on the first weekend.

TBL calls his shot!

If that’s the case, then I would have expected a “my” Heels notation per his NBA affliction.

And it’s not even tipoff yet.
