There's a difference between hang and beat - not saying Duke couldn't lose to any of the teams you named either but Duke is by far the best team this year. And don't be jealous because Dicky V likes Duke more than your favorite team. The man just speaks the truth, and FYI, he loves North Carolina just as much. Anybody who can't respect that man's love and passion for the game of college basketball has a problem.

Dick Vitale's love for Duke is overstated... He is just biased towards the ACC as a whole.

Yeah but that 1 team is a unanimous #1 in the polls and many people have already started discussing an undefeated season (for the record I don't think it will happen, but the fact that the thought is out there just shows how good of a team this is). I shouldn't have to remind you of how badly Duke beat Kansas State IN KANSAS CITY. The ACC is also the home of the last two national champions and 5 of the last 10. I don't think it's the best conference this year but definitely better than the Big 12 IMO - which had it's year last year but isn't coming back as strong.

This is one of the few years where I can say the big 10 is probably the best conference this year. If not for Hummel getting hurt the big 10 would probably have 3 teams finish top 10 and Illinois coming close. But then I guess that might not make it the best since Hummel did get hurt lol.

UNC beat #11 Kentucky today. Surprised me. Terrance Jones had an awful game, while Barnes still isn't doing much.

Michigan got the win over Harvard. 5-2 on the year, but every game makes me nervous. They live and die by the 3, because they don't really have that big guy presence to score in the lane. Still nice to see them win.

Michigan beat Concordia tonight. Glad I've been able to see their last two games on tv. It was cool. I saw this guy who I went to high school with, playing against Michigan. Put up 29pts. Not bad.

Cleveland State close to the top 25.. I think they're 5 spots away from the top 25.. 10-0, going for 11-0 tonight. Only true test though is going to be West Virginia a little bit later.

That's pretty sweet they are still undefeated.

WVU is usually a well coached team, and they will play hard till the end. Still impressed by their W over Kentucky last tournament.

MSU was so overrated. I saw some preview mags that put them over Duke...

Huge win for my boys in orange last night. We may be better than I thought this season. After a slow start with some 'down to the wire' wins, it seems like things might be coming together.

Fab Melo is gonna be insane in a couple years.

Got a solid win over Memphis last night.

My dude Elijah Johnson played great for us and had a sick alley oop.
