UCONN tonight? Just wondering as I haven't heard anything about it the past two days on ESPN.

If this game was Duke vs. Xavier you'd be crapping your pants about all the coverage.

I am no Duke lover, but they deserve the coverage they get, and we would be happy to ride their publicity coattails.

We did play Duke last year. Not quite the same level of coverage, but we were on CBS instead of ESPN (which markets the crap out of everything).

Easy there SixFig.....it is friggen ridiculous. They spent 15 minutes of the XU/Marquette pregame show (and more at halftime) yesterday talking about the Duke/Uconn game. I understanding pimping a game for the network but it's a little overboard.

My family has been Dukies since my grandfather attended Duke in the 60's. Note, I was in Xavier gear at last year's game.

However, this is going to be a good game against two solid programs. This deserves all the attention. The coaches have earned it. Like them or not, they know the game. I am looking forward to it.

Even though I like Wake, and therefore like the ACC, I hate Duke, and wish they would have last here, but at least this makes the ACC look better than the Big East (something I feel for the most part is true).
