Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Sunday, March 30, 2003

Oh man... what a day.

Duke survived. It was a tough game, and they didn't look great. Bass had a good stretch at a key time. Tillis was awesome in the second half. Beard had an off night ("It happens," she said), but she hit the key shot at the end. And so they survived.

Duke fans are getting worried: "Very weak decisionmaking on offense, and poor or nonexistent post defense. I know that eventually the luck will run out." Tech will be another difficult game, but maybe it's better that the Devils don't have to face up against the Lobo fans.

Speaking of Lobo fans, they weren't enough tonight. Tech won pretty easily. This game was on ESPN2, so I didn't get to see it -- sad, because it's the one I wanted to see most of all. Sounds like the crowd was pretty intense, and now there even more bad blood between fans... Will the Lobo fans show up for Duke-Tech? Will Stanford fans show up tomorrow? We will see.
