    No Ryan Kelley for Duke is going to be tough. But if Curry and Dawkins are hitting 3s they are pretty unbeatable. Im going to grab NCSTATE live after a duke run.

    NC State was favored to win the ACC going into the year and has 5-6 NBA players. Even if Duke was healthy they have better players but Kelley is out and Curry is playing hurt

    and this means what? paper champions.

    State has a good chance to beat Duke today with Kelly not playing today. Duke has had some first half struggles the past six games and State should look to jump out to a lead early and pressure Duke.

    Yes. But NC state has proven they aren't as good as we thought they'd be.
    What would the Seattle/Atlanta line be if this was week 1, just cause ATL would have been giving a TD doesn't mean it's the play (even though it is)

    Sagarin's numbers has Duke -8.5, so its just not Pomeroy.

    If it was the first week of the year then UCLA, UNC, and Kentucky would all be highly ranked.....

    Those teams aren't leading the country in FG% and on a 9 game winning streak, Duke only has 5 regulars healthy and can Plumlee stay out of foul trouble against NC States high scoring big men?

    Duke has the defensive advantage. Even with Kelly out NC state allows to high if a 2 point % to beat Duke this year. That's why duke is solid they play great defense.

    NC State does lead the country in FG % Duke is well coached on defense but I think too small to prevent the easy buckets.

    The team that beats Duke simply has to keep Plumlee with his back to the basket. He is lucky to hit the backboard with his back to the basket

    ty, I think State will continue to be underrated for a while but the Maryland game could be a trap because of letdown/foul trouble

    I hear ya, but can't deny who they beat and as much as I love watching NC State play, If Kelly was healthy no way Howell (beast) gets 17 boards and duke probably wins.

    By underrated I mean the lines there will be value betting them. Yes they were preseason to win the league but todays line had them as a home dog to another ACC team without their 2nd best player.
