The DARK KNIGHT (aka bcl) Says We're In (at least Temporaily

Michigan has beat one ranked team, #18 NC St.

Duke beat #2, 3 and 4.

Michigan had no argument, Duke deserved it over pre-Butler Indiana.

Duke is good, scary good. But I think if they had played at OSU, then OSU probaby would have won that game. In reality, they didn't and Duke won by 5.

The thing with Duke vs. OSU, Duke was coming off of a stretch where the played a ton of games in a short time. I don't think the game is really that close if Duke had a more extended rest, or a normal rest I'll say. Duke beat Kentucky and that win now is only impressive because of what they were ranked when they played.

Plumlee is the difference, they haven't had a big guy play like him for some time, but Ryan Kelly has improved from last year and is a big part to their success, but really Suilamon and Cook playing out of their minds has been big as well.

I think Michigan is going to really surprise people in conference when they are seen by everyone on a regular basis. They start two freshman, a sophomore and two juniors and are built to play any style. I like them against a lot of teams in the Country.

Duke/UM have looked the best so far this season, but conference play will determine who they become.
