Mercer starts 5 seniors that have played together all these years, have a good guard name Langston Hall, a guy inside named Dan Coursey.

Right now tied with Duke 12-12, but Mercer is not played scared

Mercer is playing extremely sloppy. They might not be scared but they look like they are teetering on the edge.

Neither team could hang with NDSU.

Macon isn't that far from Raleigh though I am guessing the partisans for UMass/Tennessee in the crowd are pulling for Mercer

Seemed a lot of the crowds yesterday were pro upset to me.

Duke would much rather play in the northeast in terms of crowd support. Not a ton of Duke alums in the triangle and the average North Carolina resident hates Duke.

Why is Duke always a soft team?

And why do they rely on the 3 year after year?

Both these teams slinging 3's like a motherfricker.

Because they have the same coach with the same offensive mentality year after year?

You would think after the last 10 years struggling in the tournament you would change it up, right?

They don't have a point guard capable of driving to the hoop this year, and they have a plethora of shooting guards and good shooters.

Part of me thinks rebounding will kill Mercer, but a lot of these Duke offensive boards are long rebounds from missed 3s

Well they usually have someone who can shoot...if they rely on the 3 with this team, they are in serious trouble. Dawkins is supposed to be their shooter..but he's been garbage.
