7:00pm EST tip on Wednesday 01/03/2017 at A.J. Palumbo Center For the record once again, students are still not back on campus from break 11:00am Betting line now has the Dukes favored by 1; O/U down to 130½ Predicted tempo of 61 for this game means another tense and low scoring game. GW is 347 of 351 in Adj Tempo at 64 possessions a game and Duquesne is 300/351 at 67 Huge game IMO, if they can win tonight, and go to the Bronx and pull another W v FordHAM, a 3-0 would be sweet, esp considering the slate gets more difficult after that. Agree. The biggest game on the schedule is always the one we are playing now! It would be great to start A-10 play 3-0. GW definitely a toss up and Fordham will not be easy in the Bronx. Not an impossible feat but our bigs need to step up the inside game and not miss bunnies! Bummed out that the students won't be back yet but I'll be there with a friend of mine. I don't think anything else is going on tonight so hopefully we get some fans and most importantly win! I agree with Towsonkid that this a huge game for the Dukes and I think Dambrot is treating it that way. They might not be as talented as next years team, but there is talent here and a win against GW could really set a tone for the rest of the A-10 season. Nobody to be intimidated by in this conference. Go for it! Wearing the throwbacks. Nike ones look better IMO. Good start by Williams. Two 3's and he's covering Yuta. Another very good defensive start to the game. Shooting pretty well across the board to boot. Couple of big dunks by Brown and Williams. Not a good finish to the half. Not a good finish to the half. Absolutely right but happy with the half overall. Ball movement has been impressive. Have to shut down G-Dub's big men inside. Lewis keeping GW in the game.When he's hot he's hot when he's not he's not. Defense is playing absolutely lights out and the offense is organized and efficient. Start the bus, Gus. This was a dominant performance. 69-52. First place in the A10. Heck of an effort. Could have been even worse if mike was hitting tonight. Dukes did a nice job of overcoming some poor officiating at times. Think of this game, but add Lewis hitting his usual %! This team is looking good! Great performance. Got put some people in those seats. This team is pretty good. I know i'll be making the 5 hour trip from Philly once or twice before the season's over. This Duquesne team is better than the team that beat Dayton on Saturday,,, which was better than the team that lost to So. Illinois the week before, which was still better than all but the team that beat U San Francisco. Well said.

This is how a team plays defense. This is how a team gets better at basketball.
