Lol.. who should be 1 over them? Ohio St? They have no post presence what so ever and play 6 guys only! West. Va has a shot at the 1 seed but Duke only has 5 losses and really 1 bad one against NC ST. Duke will be 1 seed without a doubt and they deserve. If West. Va is a 1 seed it should be over Syracuse. So many duke haters out there. I love it

agree, but seems like a lot of mallers really like duke

i also think they're a little overrated, especially vulnerable against physical teams. if theyre on they are great but they dont strike me as a legit title contender. just my opinion...

Not overrated at all. So much experience and can stroke the 3 ball. They could lose early in the tourney because they could have an off night. Or someone like gtown could shoot 71 % against them again but not overrated at all. Very good team with the best Coach in the nation

I think W. Virginia is deserving of a #1.....(Purdue beat them by 15 @ Mackey ) Now, Purdue would lose by 15+

This isnt about being a Duke hater. They just dont impress me. I dont think they are a legit # 1 seed

They will be because of their record and the respect the ACC gets

There are 10-12 teams out there better than Duke

I won't have them going very far in my brackets unless they get a favorable draw...maybe a 2nd round or sweet 16 loss more than likely...

This Duke team is good, but not great. I'm glad they'll be a #1 seed. After the first round they'll be heavily favored, which might setup some easy money opportunities....
