Shocker alert! Team without its best player doesn’t look as good who would’ve thunk it

[94 Feet WBB @94FeetWBB]

The ACC 🚨

It’s hard to call a conference overrated after just ONE week, but the ACC had about as rough a start as you could possibly have for a Power conference.

North Carolina: 0-2 in blowouts
Duke: Looked shaky without Toby
NC State: Fell to the SEC’s preseason No. 7 team

Notre Dame is the only real bright spot and they haven’t exactly been tested either.

It’s still early, but the self-proclaimed best conference in the country hasn't looked good 👀

@cheerwinefloat @DukeFOOTBALL Nah mayo manny is inevitable

Current Bowl projections for @DukeFOOTBALL:

SI: Pinstripe vs. Iowa
CBS: Duke's Mayo vs. Northwestern
Athlon: Pinstripe vs. Northwestern

[Ryan Hamner @ryanhamner_]

Obviously Duke controls its destiny, but other ACC matchups to watch in the final weeks:

Week 11: Wake-SMU, Louisville-UNC
Week 12: Pitt-Louisville
Week 13: Virginia-Virginia Tech, Pitt-Cal
(Pretty much any matchups with those teams)

Anywhere from spots 1-11 are on the table

Duke up to No. 11 in NCAA RPI now

Duke women's soccer defeats Wake in overtime.

5-goal second half for the Blue Devils.

EXACTLY what they needed. Now for a rematch with North Carolina Thursday.

@dukewbbcasual Nope. But if it wasn’t either school’s fault… assume sponsorship/funding then

Event seemed sus from the start

[Ryan Hamner @ryanhamner_]

Duke WBB’s Sunday game against North Texas in The Foundry Classic has been canceled “due to circumstances beyond the control of the participating institutions”

Florida Atlantic is the new opponent, 1 p.m. tip in Boca Raton. Owls went 14-18 last season

Former four-year starter at Duke from 2006-09

Blue Devils won their season opener at USC this season, 3-1.

[USC Women's Soccer @USC_WSoccer]

USC and women's soccer head coach Jane Alukonis are parting ways after five seasons, the University announced on Friday, November 6. A national search for the program's next head coach will begin immediately.

0-0 draw.

Duke moves down a spot in RPI to No. 15.

Gonna need at least two wins in the conference tournament

[Ryan Hamner @ryanhamner_]

An ACC champ appearance would push Duke back to top-2 seed range, way up from current projected 4 line in UNC's region.

But UVA is hot, Duke is not... FH already bottomed out, will WSOC do the same?

[Ryan Hamner @ryanhamner_]

113 points tonight is the most for Duke inside Cameron Indoor Stadium since a 113-49 victory over Stetson on Dec. 1, 2018

RJ Barrett had 26 and Cam Reddish had 23 that night

61-point win tonight is the largest margin of victory under Jon Scheyer

[Zach Barnett @zach_barnett]

I did the ESPN blind resume ranking and came up with this. Pretty fun.

Seems a little contrived from Duke Golf Club...
but props to UNC for actually licensing it for athletics first.

(I don't think it looks good, but it will certainly be received well)

[Ryan Hamner @ryanhamner_]

Some WSOC thoughts:
Duke needs a point against UVA tomorrow to solidify a top-six ACC finish and spot in the conference tourney.
UNC/ND will likely power past LVille/Miami to aim for top seed, leaving a Stanford win over BC as the only potential spoiler

[Ryan Hamner @ryanhamner_]

So +3 for Stanford and Duke draw pushes both to 16, Duke has tiebreaker.
May be in Duke's best interest to draw and secure the 6-seed and face Wake, then ND and UNC in the final... but the way it's played in the back third, not sure what control they have over anything
