Why is it? Illinois was a prayer 3pointer away from going into the national title game undefeated. I don't think UNC with this years team will be in much of that predicament.

Comical? Hardly...The schedule isn't so tough outside of Michigan St. As long as we take care of Wake at Wake, put it in the bagggg.

I'll give you odds that UNC loses at least one game, and I'll bet $20 or $50 with you that they don't go undefeated.

Let me know if you're interested and we can work something out.

What ODDS do I get?

Also, this UNC is just special, and people are going to have to accept it. We're not even 100% at full strength and we just destroyed the #8 team in the country. If it weren't for the garbage time McAlarney's 3pointers, UNC would've won by 30+

Not worried about Louisville, they fit perfect to our style, we already destructed them last year. Not worried about Duke, they're too 3point reliant and we'll probably drop 80+ on them on an off night.

Bring on anyone, because the only team who stands a chance is UCONN becaue they have the balance and speed at guard.

Name your odds and we'll try to get a wager going.

Duke will win once against you this season. You're wrong about Duke's 3-pointers, so far this Duke team is taking and making less 3's than almost any Coach K team ever. I also think Wake matches up will with you guys.

Also, Harangody was sick last night. Don't think it would have made a difference, but ND isn't an elite team anyway.

UNC is head an shoulders better than pretty much everyone but maybe 3 or 4 teams. But as last season proved, you guys will lose a couple games you shouldn't, and Duke is much better than people think.

Duke has NO inside game. Who's going to guard Davis, Thompson, and Hansbrough? Thompson and Hansbrough both will completely dominate that game. Who's going to guard Lawson? Singler? HAHAHAHAH NOBODY. UNC is an absolute nightmare of a matchup for Duke. No matter what style teams play and matchup, nobody does what we do as well as we do it. People have to understand that if you want to beat UNC, you absolutely must have an inside game with GREAT GUARDS.

Give me +5500 and you got a bet.

Harangody was sick? Hansbrough's been hurt and not 100%.

You want 55:1, yet you're so confident UNC goes undefeated?

We have lots of big bodies to throw at Hansbrough... Zoubek, Thomas, and Plumlee can all bang and give up some fouls.

The reason Duke is underrated this season is because people don't yet see how much better our interior game will be. Not so much in scoring, but some quality guys to grab boards and occasionally score a bucket here and there. Much more depth this season.

Nolan Smith will guard Lawson and is quick enough to limit him. If you don't know that, you don't know Duke.

I'll take Singler, Henderson, and Scheyer over any three players in the country.

Ummm...reguardless of confidence, I'm not going to make a stupid bet. I've done some digging and that's the odds.

You're a Duke fan, and you think Zoubek, and some can named Plumlee are going to control the 3 guys we have? I GURANTEE that Zoubek doesn't even play more than 15 minutes that game...Thomas? He just going to play dirty? Like Henderson?

Your last statement pretty much sums up your inability to take your heart away from betting with your mind...well, your mind doesn't seem to be too much there either, but you get the point.

I know you're a Duke fan, but honestly, c'mon...those 3 players over anyone in the country? Is that a joke?

Not at all. There's no three I would rather have.

I mean from the same team, didn't qualify myself there. Hansbrough/Lawson/Ellington come close.

I don't think the guys I mentioned will control them, I just think they will provide enough minutes/rebounds/points to go along with the rest of the team to be competitive with Carolina.

Zoubek just won't play much against us, he just doesn't work. Our style will just wear him out and he'll be of no use.

You're just nuts...Hansbrough, player of the year, and a top 3 PG in the nation are good enough...you can pick whoever the hell you want as the 3rd guy, Ellington, Green, Thompson, Ginyard....it doesn't matter to me.

Just don't tell me I didn't tell you so. Duke stands 0 chance to beat Carolina this year. Notre Dame has better guards, and better inside game, and more balanced, and look what we did to them.

Are you going to accept my offer?

I'll give you 30:1 and bet $10.

Notre Dame is by no means a great team. Duke is better in every facet of the game compared to ND. We don't have anyone in the middle of Harangody's caliber, but he's all they have. ND has NO ONE that can create off the dribble, and that's why they got punished by UNC. Duke has several guys that can penetrate.

Ok, your analysis is dumb, because you say you're better in every facet, then admit Harangody's better than anyone you have in the middle...makes sense?

Anyways, they have a better 3 pointer shooter than anyone you have. Yet, another area you guys aren't better.

30:1 and bet 10$? Quit wasting my time...

Post play isn't determined by one guy. Singler, Thomas, Zoubek, Plumlee are far better than any group ND can come out with.

Likewise, 3-pt shooting isn't determined by one guy. McAlarney is the best shooter on either team, but Duke has plenty of guys who can shoot it, although the team isn't as reliant on 3's as past years.

$300 is all I'm willing to lose considering I have so little to win.

I will bet more the better odds you give me.

You say ND has a better inside game, better shooters, and more balance... so do you think they are better than Duke, or anywhere near as good?

If the 2 played each other, ND would win by 8-10 at ND, if the game was at cameron, it's tight the whole way and duke gets a phantom foul at the end to win...oh wait, that's already happened this year.

I thought you meant you only wanted to bet 10$

I'll take the 30:1....

DEAL

All right we have a wager. I will gladly pay you $300, since I will be very impressed if UNC runs the table this season.

There's no way ND beats Duke anywhere. Duke beats them 8 out of 10 times or better at any venue.

I'm willing to put a substantial amount of money on Duke finishing the season much higher ranked, more wins, whatever you want to determine the better team by.
