I am wondering why Ken Pom and Sagarin still list 357 teams sine Ivy league’s cancellation makes it 349 this year.
Just nit-pickin!

Since espn.com and goduquesne.com both have it I am assuming we are good. They even list the announcers but who knows any more?

Lazy long passes just kill me. Move to the ball and shorten the pass. Good teams are just goning to kill us when we do that.

Either my vision is failing or Weathers is getting hacked repeatedly.

Tuned in late in the first half. Didn't see evidence of the purported lack of quickness on the part of the Dukes. Looks like a pretty quick team, though they had a slow start the other day.

Truer words have not been written.
Although, that was certainly an encouraging half in general.

Thanks Bluff. I got it on ESPN+ on my computer. I couldn't find it on my phone which I was trying to do while watching the Steelers.

Bluff, if not too complicated, how did you find that link for the game? If too complex to explain, forget it. Is that a link that's available to watch Dukes games for free?

Weathers reminds me of Bruce Atkins now...

His Bro is doing a great job on D and beating the press. Good show and the two have chemistry.
