URI and Duke bands are here today

Billyboy78 · Unread post by **Billyboy78** » 7 years ago

Ramster, what kind of crowd is it? More Rhody fans, or more Duke fans?

That means Duke going with 4 guards with Jeter and the frosh not going.

josephski · Unread post by **josephski** » 7 years ago

I'm surprised we're 8 point underdogs. I know Duke is still very good but with all their injuries they are not the number one team in the country.

I know this isn't the thread to post it but since it's the most read now I'll post it. Those new pants.....yuck.

Absolutely, Red. Ferry looked like a fat WWF guy, throwing his weight around all night.
Just a joke as far as the officiating, that night.

Oh, the new shorts look like they're wearing a fanny pack.
Awful design.

Garrett is in the poster starting line up

Have to stay out of foul trouble early, CANNOT afford to have Martin sitting like last night.

LET'S GO!

giovanni · Unread post by **giovanni** » 7 years ago

GO RHODY!!! Let's pull one off

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 7 years ago

First sentence from DO excuses for Dukies ... nice.

Native · Unread post by **Native** » 7 years ago

At the first media timeout, Duke leading 6-2

Duke looks fresh, while Rhody is not really helping itself, with half-a-dozen unforced turnovers.

rodfromcranston · Unread post by **rodfromcranston** » 7 years ago

Are these assholes going to call afoul on every play?
Is Hassan sleepwalking? He got plenty of rest yesterday.
Turnover city.

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 7 years ago

3-11 should b up 10 pts here!!!

Sweep The Leg · Unread post by **Sweep The Leg** » 7 years ago

Grayson Allen reminds of the douchebag Nathan Scott from One Tree Hill. Yeah, I watched that show.... Don't judge.

Native · Unread post by **Native** » 7 years ago

At the second media timeout at 11:52, Rhody has clawed its way back in.

Duke 8, URI 6

Things getting a bit chippy. Duke evidently not enjoying the URI pressure.

Native · Unread post by **Native** » 7 years ago

Duke comes right back, but then Rhody does, too.

At the 7:27 media timeout, Duke up by three.

Duke 15, URI 12

rodfromcranston · Unread post by **rodfromcranston** » 7 years ago

So Vitale is going to give us every Duke player's stats,
mourn the guys on the bench, babble about Coach K.
Just putrid.

giovanni · Unread post by **giovanni** » 7 years ago

He's been doing same thing for 30 years. No matter who they play

Dickie V.......nothing off the fast ball....

giovanni · Unread post by **giovanni** » 7 years ago

URI needs to realize they are as good as this edition of Duke or better

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 7 years ago

Why as one of the top defenders in the country does Martin not get more respect from officials?

I don't get it.....

Duke carries or walks on every possession btw...

giovanni · Unread post by **giovanni** » 7 years ago

I've heard 3 times its 3rd game in a week for Duke. Am I missing something or is this not 4th game for URI this week

giovanni · Unread post by **giovanni** » 7 years ago

Red made the most accurate comment. Playing Duke its 5 vs 8. No question. Ridiculous

Sweep The Leg · Unread post by **Sweep The Leg** » 7 years ago

Kennard is a little bitch.

Native · Unread post by **Native** » 7 years ago

Media timeout at 3:48

Duke 25, URI 23

Things continue being physical.

Duke player Kennard does not seem to appreciate ringside Rhody fans.

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 7 years ago

A well placed T from DH wouldn't be this worst thing here....just don't lose a possession

Yeah, why do you think he is at Duke?

Native · Unread post by **Native** » 7 years ago

Duke, while bringing the ball up the court, calls a time-ou tat 1:47 remaining in the first half

Duke 30, URI 26

Native · Unread post by **Native** » 7 years ago

Rhody confused by the Duke zone

EC air-balls a trey then hits the side of the backboard

Dan calls a timeout

Duke 34, URI 26 with 36.7 second left in the first half

giovanni · Unread post by **giovanni** » 7 years ago

Does Iverson have foul trouble? Or Danny upset with him?

giovanni · Unread post by **giovanni** » 7 years ago

Don't feel dead. Don't think URI played very well at all. Gotta hit shots. Very jittery

Native · Unread post by **Native** » 7 years ago

#1 Duke leads, 34-26, at the half

a jittery Rhode Island team score TWENTY-SIX points in the first half.

Rhode_Island_Red · Unread post by **Rhode_Island_Red** » 7 years ago

5 vs. 8.

adam914 · Unread post by **adam914** » 7 years ago

Last couple minutes of the half did not go well, but still right in it. Have to come out strong early in the second half.

I'd be annoyed too if some douche in a pats jersey grabbed my arm.

PeterRamTime · Unread post by **PeterRamTime** » 7 years ago

I'm not too worried. We are in this. Like Dan said we gotta relax on offense.
We do that we can take control.
LETS FUCKING GO

Don't knock over a fan's beer with a flop and then cry about it when said fan says something.

rodfromcranston · Unread post by **rodfromcranston** » 7 years ago

Terrible final minute.
Where's Iverson?
Will Vitale STFU?????

Fans should not be touching players. I don't care if he flopped. Guy looked like a douche.

Didn't see any grab from the fan. Only leaning in to say something.

Finger was still on the ball at 0 ever so slightly.

5 against 8 is mild. Mild. Allen is a punk, sorry. A punk.

Duke continues to pull away

Duke 42, URI 28

Why can't we fuckin score?????!?!??!?
I'm getting seriously pissed.

adam914 · Unread post by **adam914** » 7 years ago

Starting to wonder if so many games early on is having an affect on EC after not playing for a year.

ram1980 · Unread post by **ram1980** » 7 years ago

Kennard flops after every shot but Man is he good.
