A win would be a small step forward for the Dukes. I will be there. If I see or hear anything of note I will be sure to post. Go Dukes!!! Thanks, CTS. I'm curious to get your report on the overall atmosphere at Rose Hill. Last year, they really had the students into it; this year, they are 0-6 in the conference at home, have not won at home in 2024. Id like to focus on the team.I feel confident the Dukes will win but it wont be easy.GO Bluffites.
Fan Duel line went back up to 3.5. At this time went down to 2.5. Very rare for a Duquesne game for the betting line to jump back and forth. As I previously stated national game with a lot of eyes & action. Watch the referees🤔 Fan Duel line went back up to 3.5. At this time went down to 2.5. Very rare for a Duquesne game for the betting line to jump back and forth. As I previously stated national game with a lot of eyes & action. Watch the referees🤔 I’ve seen physical basketball all year. We play it. But man, Fordham fouls like crazy! The crew could call a handcheck on every possession. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. But we cannot rely on that, need to match it. How was that afoul on Williams? Rose just elbowed him in the face. Thought this was on ESPN+ ? Well the crew are calling them. I give them credit. It’s a warzone out there. City Duke, your constant complaining of the referees is just ridiculous and unwarranted!! You do realize that the Dukes have been in the bonus since the 13:00 mark and the Dukes only have three fouls. Quit looking for stuff and enjoy the game!!!! Fordham playing hack a shaq on everybody. You do realize that the Dukes have been in the bonus since the 13:00 mark and the Dukes only have three fouls. Quit looking for stuff and enjoy the game!!!! I complimented the refs… City Duke, your constant complaining of the referees is just ridiculous and unwarranted!! This is unwarranted. Trey got elbowed in the face and somehow picked up his 2nd foul in the process. Nothing wrong with pointing that out. Embarrassing product for the A10 on national TV. City Duke, your constant complaining of the referees is just ridiculous and unwarranted!! This is unwarranted. Trey got elbowed in the face and somehow picked up his 2nd foul in the process. Nothing wrong with pointing that out. It’s called incidental contact if you know anything about the sport and Williams bumped him as he was in the act of shooting. Grant needed 8 more makes in a row to break his own record. i think he made at least 7. You do realize that the Dukes have been in the bonus since the 13:00 mark and the Dukes only have three fouls. Quit looking for stuff and enjoy the game!!!! I complimented the refs… How did you compliment the refs when you are complaining about Williams bumping a shooter and he gets hit in the face with an elbow, really?

I just watched it again and what you describe is not what happened. I’ll leave it at that Terrible start to half. Glad coach D was so happy with the teams first half performance he allowed them to take the second half off.

Refs doing a great job calling what needs to be called and letting a lot of contact go. They could have easily called 5 more fouls on Fordham. Instead they called enough to not let it get out of hand while still allowing the FT advantage to the Dukes which they deserved. Fordham still got into the bonus as well. I wish the Dukes had gotten the same treatment at Dayton that Fordham is getting tonight.
I’m worried that Rose will take this game over.
