Too high. We should be #10-15 at this point.
Shocked that NCSU didnt make the "Others receiving Votes" tee hee.
Nope. But we did make "Others sucking ASS"
Top 5 is too high for Duke, with the number of turnovers, periodic scoring droughts, injuries, and lack of interior strength.
Of course, Carolina should remain in the top spot because with their team anything less than a undefeated season would be a disappointment.

another sweep of duke will suit me just fine.
everything old is new again
and we owe you guys a smashed nose.
Undefeated means undefeated, you should expect nothing less or the season's a failure for them.
i don't know about undefeated, something tells me we'd need bobby for that, but i haven't been enough attention to the non-conference teams. i think the clemson game proved that we have a lot to work on but that we also have the drive.
duke does seem a bit too highly ranked, i think 79 called it right.
You know, you don't have to agree with me.
^ah, can't help myself! i haven't seen them play since cornell, and there's just something about their intensity level, but i'm no expert don't listen to me.
5 is too high... Particularly after their performance tonight. Without a key flop, some key duke plays and a decent number of calls FSU would have had a repeat from last year.
FSU made 10 FTs tonight, Duke 13 and took 6 in the final minute...and Duke still won by 13.....Key calls? Were there some bad ones? yes....the Double Techs off set and it was a jumpball before the Techs.....FSU got away with a lot of slapping and reaching in tonight....it was a physical game yet b/c Paulus didnt play much of the 2nd half he was rested and able to make some key plays in the end...plus he was probably mentally sharper than the rest of the players on the floor.
and one more thing...you're a dumbass.

kirklimon - Are you baiting for responses? Because you can't be serious with your flop & reference to bad calls posting.
Post something worthy of discussion or please fish for smack talkers on your own team's board.

Well the Squeels were a traveling call on Hansblow away from taking a loss to a sub .500 team. Why the hell are they #1?
"Heels were a traveling call away from Hansbrough" . Bottom line is that didn't happen & we won. We're number 1 because we're one of 3 undefeated teams & very successful on the road. You guys have a good team, no doubt, but you guys play absolutely no true road games. Neutral courts don't count. The only true road games is the ones you guys have to play, conference games of course...............................
And you just HAD to come and share that little nugget of wisdom with us. Didn't you?

Much in the same way Carowhina only plays ranked teams when forced to do so, no?
When our schedule was made in advance, we PURPOSELY scheduled Ohio State & Kentucky on the road. At time of scheduling, Ohio St. was a top 5 team & Kentucky was also in the Top 25. It was also attempted to schedule another game at Arizona, which was turned down. The Ohio St. & Kentucky games were scheduled as true ROAD games, not on a neutral court somewhere.

Umm we played AT Temple this year. i know they are no Kentucky....err oh wait.
Like I said, at the time of scheduling they were a Top 25 team. The same can't be said for Temple. And you guys struggled with them................................
And you struggled with a sub .500 Georgia Tech team while Temple just whipped top 20 Xavier. What's your point again?
Point is, you guys absolutely WILL NOT play true OOC road games.

Coach K likes to schedule games that simulate NCAA tourney games.
Plus the real point is, your team didn't play a ranked team until January 6th, which was a conference game!

I must pay compliments to those doing all the CG work over the years. I truly believed otherwise.
No, point is we TRIED to play teams ranked in Top 25 on THEIR floor. Some teams just didn't hold up to Top 25 long enough. Had players stayed, we would've played at a Top 5 Ohio State & a Top 15 Kentucky. You guys may as well move Cameron to Madison Square Garden since that's the only place you'll play a OOC top team.
"Coach K likes to play games that simulate NCAA tourney games."
Give me one example. Temple? Cornell?
