Due to my team being upset in the first round of March madness I will be finishing my blog on the trail from the final four to the national championship game of the NCAA division 1 mens basketball tournament. The final four teams are no suprise or cinderella stories unforunatley, they are all powerhouse teams that have a history of making it to the final four. There is Kentucky, Kansas, Ohio State and Louisville and im rooting for Louisville to take it all becaus they are the under dogs and I enjoy watching Louisville in both basketball and football.
Most people are expecting Kentucky to cut down the nets in New Orleans but I think this infamous tournament is about due for an upset.

March Madness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well the regular season is over and all the big boys are showin up in four different locations to play in the biggest most watched tournament in the world. I have done my predictions and unfortunatley I dont have my Blue Devils up to win it, although they have a pretty good chance.
Personally I think that the Florida State Seminoles will win, they have proven to be one of the most consistent teams in the NCAA and on top of that they have almost beat all the number one seeds that are in the tourney. But with my fingers crossed im hoping that Duke will come out with a win over Florida State in the championship.

All good things come to an end
Unfortunatley the Blue Devils lost to the Tar Heels the second time they played this weekend. I cant even tell you what they could have done to make it not such a blow out, they were getting open and executing plays. Its just simple, the shots werent falling in.
Duke will be playing in the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament next, they should have a pretty good chance at winning it if they can play like they ususally do.

Climbing the rankings
Duke once again has proved the press wrong, they managed to hold of the Virginia Tech Hokies in overtime to beat them and move up one spot in the Ap and Usa today rankings. Duke will win when bet against it seems like, all five commentators put the Hokies to win and Duke came out victorious.
Duke is once again starting to become a threat because they have only lost two games and one was to the Hokies and there next game is against the Florida State Seminoles who was there second loss. March madness is right around the corner and the Blue Devils are coming in hot.

It all comes down to this
The Blue Devils are on cloud 9 after beating the Boston College Eagles to put them back on top of the ACC with North Carolina and Florida State. Although this win streak isnt enough for them to have much breathing room, they only have 5 regular season games left and two of the 5 are the Tar Heels and the Seminoles.
Duke has all pistons going at this point in the season which is a good thing but also a bad thing, the good news is they will blow through these next 5 games with 5 wins and go into march madness with alot of confidence. Unfortunatley though for the past couple years Duke has a cake walk through the first couple rounds and has got shut out by a team that wasnt even seeded. My predictions, I cant really tell you anything forshore but I do know that I havent seen Duke at a stride like this in a long time.

Raining 3's
The biggest rivalry in all sports took place in Chapel Hill North Carolina last week with the #9 ranked Blue Devils playing the #5 ranked Tar Heels. Every professional predicted North Carolina to win, fortunatley freshman Austin Rivers threw it up from 7 feet off the 3 point line with 1 second left and drained it to upset North Carolina by one point.
It was quite a cinderella story for Rivers that night considering he never stepped foot on the court against the Tar Heels, scoring a career high of 29 points,not to mention 24 of them were 3 pointers and making the game winning shot in the biggest rivalry in all of sports. I will be excited to see what Coach K can turn this kid into.
