    Solid first half. Winnable here in the last 20. Likes the defense overall

    Good to see Dixon logging minutes and not fouling. BTW, he has 4 blocks already. Those are very often undercounted in the box scores.

    100% correct! Blocks are the most commonly missed stat.

    Wow, what a pleasant surprise. What a game from Guinyard. Shades of Dae Dae from him tonight.

    Nicely done! Davidson threw everything at us tonight but the ghost of William Lee Davidson and his kitchen sink.

    A lot of minutes and surely the team learned a great deal about themselves.   Keep building and growing. Good win.

    Best win to start the A-10 season. Never won there before?

    Dixon playing a lot of minutes and staying out of foul trouble was huge. Gotta work on inbounding the ball. Their announcers gave Dukes plenty of praise. Let's build on this one.

    Best win in the Dru era. So proud of this team. Dixon was an absolute beast as well as Necas grabbing every loose rebound late. Jimmie hitting foul shots, and TG doing his thing. Cam stepped up big time in the second half.  A ton to be excited about. Saturday afternoon should be exciting.

    2 overtimes on the road shooting 81% from the line, holding the A-10's best 3PT shooting team below 30% as an underdog with just 12 turnovers & 15 PFs seemed impossible 2 weeks ago.

    This was a huge step in the right direction!

    Plenty of go-to guys showed-up during crunch time.

    Dixon was a major factor without getting in foul trouble!

    Dave played 38 minutes. That in itself seems insane to say.

    BOTH- Jimmy &  Alex Williams Exceptional

    I think I just assured a Duquesne victory tonight by betting on Davidson to win. If it works out like my Steeler bets, it's a lock. I've been on the wrong side of Steelers results every bet i've made this season. Something like 0 for 10.

    Keep it up. We need all the luck falling our way this year. LOL.

    Lets go beat VCU and let the conference be on alert. This team is going to be special. Gotta go through Pittsburgh to win the conference tourney. Going to be fun.

    Loved that quote from TG postgame, and very classy of the Davidson broadcast to interview a Duquesne player after a double-overtime win. "I just got a clutch gene, that's all."

    I do the same. If losing a couple hundred means a Dukes victory I'm willing to take the loss. Lost $150 tonight and I'm happy. When I bet on them to win it never plays out. Will be betting on the Ravens next weekend as well lol.

    I'm thrilled to have been wrong again. That game might only count as one W in the standings, but it's worth about 4 or 5 in the locker room.

    Very classy from the Davidson woman reporter interviewing the Duquesne players after the game. Very refreshing.

    Well said as Dixon was a beast and Necas as well defensively.
