    #2 Duke vs. #3 North Carolina Wednesday 02/06/08
    Alright guys, what are your thoughts on this one? I haven't seen a line yet, but my guess is UNC will be favored by 5.5

                  Carolina fan here, bigtime.

                  Lawson is out. Quentin Thomas is gonna have to play lights out. Pyscho T still has a grudge against the Dookies. If ratfaces boys have a cold shooting night Tyler could dominate inside.

                  One would hope that plus the home court might propel the Heels, and we might see a replay of

                  I don't bet on or against my Heels but a wise man would look at dookies and the points.

                    Pound the over relentlesly. There is always the possibility of numerous fouls, overtime or a brawl with ejections when these two play.

                      DOH!

                      Well, I may be a little high here (in my projection I mean...LOL), but I actually see this total at around 161-162.

                              I like the under at 164 a good bit. I don't anticipate UNC being willing, or even able, to run as often or effectively without Lawson in the lineup. Lawson almost singlehandedly represents the Heels' fastbreak, and considering they're also without backup PG Bobby Frasor, UNC's explosiveness on offense diminishes significantly with the seldom-used Quentin Thomas running the point, meaning Roy Williams should be willing to operate in more halfcourt sets to compensate for Thomas' unfamiliarity with running the offense. It will likely be a close game, as usual, but asking both teams to reach the 80s is a bit much.

                                Great game to watch, good game to pass on for myself. UNDER would be the only play I would think of going with.

                                  Duke is my lean.

                                  Duke is 6-0 ATS in conference games so far.I always take the points when two good teams tangle.My lean is towards Duke.NC should of lost at Clemson,Georgia Tech,and Florida State so Duke looks to be the better team at the moment.

                                    How do you figure NC "should have lost" to Clemson, GT and Fla State? Just bc the games went down to the wire does not mean a team "should have lost".

                                    You must be a Duke fan.

                                        Exactly QD

                                        Games played with this much emotion are too tough to handicap. "The elbow" from last year, cross town rival, now throw in the Lawson injury and this is one I won't touch.

                                        Can't wait to watch though.....The outside shooting and dribble drives of Duke vs UNC, powered by the big beast inside, Tyler Hansbrough.

                                          Under maybe the safest play in this game.

                                              duke got swept by them last year and duke looks better in the games theyve played...and unc is playing without lawson...yes their pg has to step up but duke is meshing right now...i like a duke sweep this year but i think unc will be a better tourny team.

                                              im on duke +5.5

                                                    Duke is the better team.

                                                    I'm a Memphis fan but i like college basketball.
                                                    Duke is quicker, more disciplined. Definately a
                                                    team who could beat memphis because they can
                                                    shoot free throws.

                                                    Tonite they cover at the least.

                                                    Also like Kentucky -2 Bradley -5.5
