I will say, if they couldn’t have won this game, I am a little glad they are getting their doors blown off. I’ve often wondered if that close loss to ND was the worst thing that could happen. They didnt win but they seemed to get over confident from their performance. They started out hot against Cornell but then blew that game late. I’ve wondered if that Notre Dame game had finished differently, they would have fought a little more. Perhaps after this game, with everyone doubting them, they’ll find a different switch they can turn on.
I know this is what everyone says after a big loss, but you have to find the silver lining somewhere. Biggest worry has to be Will Marks confidence. I believe he’ll bounce back. Duke is clearly very talented, and not many teams in the country can play that well when they are motivated. Just have to accept it wasn’t your night and try and get better for next week.
