I assume most Duke fans will have jumped ship now that it's football season, so I just wanted to make sure you get your appropriate AH-HA for when UMD kicks your a$$es this season. Have a nice day!
ps. Are any of you worried about Deng and Livingston leaving for the pros? That sure leaves quite a bare bench now doesn't it?
Just remember Duke slaughtered a football team that Maryland lost to last season.........!!! They'll be much improved this year.
Maryland didn't exactly kick Duke's a$$ last season if I remember correctly.
Bare Bench - - not a problem at Duke, we got the guys in stripes on our side.
Enjoy your summer!

guess you didn't watch that game, but that doesn't surprise me...the score isn't always indicative of the game...

Great argument there Doh! How many games did Duke win last season? I'm pretty sure it wasn't 10. I'm also pretty sure they didn't go (and win) a bowl game either. Leave it to a Dukie to desperately find something in attempts to try to seem like a repectable team. Face it Duke football blows.
Like someone else stated, you must not have watched the game if you are implying that Duke was ever in that game.
As for the media hype (ie. refs in your pocket)....I have a funny feeling that the tides are changing. With the emergence of Tech, Wake, UNC and UMD coupled with the departure of the single most over-rated player in the history of college basketball, maybe finally the media will distribute the hype.
My prediction is Deng and Livingston are gone. From all reports and mock drafts I have read, Duke might be in a little trouble. I am not saying they will be bad, but they certainly will not be as good without them.

UMD-33 Duke- 20
In a game where 4 field goals kicked by UMD was the difference in the game, Duke set season highs for passing attempts and yardage and a little home cookin' by the refs... it sure doesn't look like an a$$ whippin' from here.
doh
:rolleyes:
And the more I think about it, I believe Duke had at least one TD called back.

Final score son. If Duke was ever a thought, you know damn well UMD would have treated them like WVU and beat them senseless. Keep livin in that world Doh, I'll keep taking the wins.
ps. UMD is now ACC champs in Lacrosse too. I'm sure Duke played well enough to win that game we stole from you too....please. Stick to sports like crew and golf to keep you happy until basketball returns. God knows football isn't gonna do it for ya!
Have you suddenly forgotten how to read game stats since bball season is over?
That's all you wanted to argue then.
OK.. Maryland won the ball game, there's no arguing that.
The stats don't lie.

Well if you look closely at the stats Doh, it would appear that Duke didn't throw the ball enough, didn't score enough, didn't maintain the ball long enough to hold us back. Look, the stats seems to do nothing more than prove that even with good stats, Duke sucks badly at Football. The stat that really stands out is the 7 punts by Duke while holding the ball 12 more minutes. Don't sit there and try to blame our great field goal kicker. We score and you don't, that's not our fault. Can you imagine what would have hapened if UMD had the ball those extra 12 minutes? Better yet, I guess if Duke had the ball 45 - 50 minutes of the game maybe they would have tied us...lol. So I guess in the end, while the stats make Duke look like they were in the game, they also point out how very pathetic the team really is. The stats say you should have won that game...surprisingly you didn't even come close.
and yes, the stats don't lie....ha.

Clearly the post says "We score and you don't, that's not our fault". Maybe you should read a little closer. FSU sure does have our number. They also have everyone elses number in the ACC as well. Don't start that argument.
Here, I'll write it twice this time so you understand....
