| Duke vs. Marquette
Should be a good one. Coach Krzyzewski has never lost in the Maui Invitational 11-0. Marquette beat the Dukies last year by 11 I think in the CBE classic in Kansas. What's everyone's predictions?

| Tight game so far....15-14 Marquette....Both teams came out swinging, I think Duke's depth we be to much for them. Marquette is making alot of silly fouls early on.

| I know I am a Duke homer, but this team is alot better than I thought they would be. They may not win this one, but they are looking better than they did last year, Nelson is a turning out to be a solid senior leader as well.

| I haven't seen anything that makes me believe Duke won't win this one, and I am by no means a Duke homer.
They seem much better than last year. The season is young though, and if I recall the wheels fell off the bus for them later in the year last year. | |

| Duke better lose. They have too many really pale, white, skinny guys to be taking seriously. | |

I like the Phoenix Sun's type O they are running this year though. The players seem to like the faster pace, and it is a great recruiting tool to.

Marquette is getting in early foul trouble which will jump up and bite them later on. Singler has 15Nelson has 12 to lead the Devils. Duke looks like they have more energy and are looking for redemption for the beating they took last year. Marquettes guard play has been solid and keeping them in the game, but I think and hope Duke pulls away in the second. Dukies are up 8, Singler is def. leading the way, stepped out and hit a couple of 3's to.

| Duke = basketball school for white albinos. Can't look at the Singler kid for more than a second without laughing at the goofy kid. I don't care how much talent they have or how good the team is - it's just too funny. | |
