Two weeks ago, Duke beat Maryland at home by 41 points. After last night, Duke almost knows how the Terps feel. (It would be impossible to ever fully grasp Maryland’s embarrassment on that day.) The Blue Devils lost by 27 at Clemson and only managed 47 total points. It was the first time Clemson’s beaten Duke in their last 23 regular season meetings and Duke’s worst loss since the 1990 NCAA Championship game, when UNLV beat the Devils by 30. ↵

Trevor Booker, do you have anything you’d like to add?↵↵⇥“It’s going to be tough to top that,” Booker said. “We just played great. ... They quit at the end. We just got the job done.”↵↵Duke, quitters? Mike Patrick knows that surely you jest. Anyone who has watched one of Duke’s dozen ESPN games knows that Duke NEVER quits. ↵

↵Oh, now you’re just being rude, Booker. Dunking over 6’8” Kyle Singler and 7’1” Brian Zoubek? That just seems uncalled for. Speaking of, you might wanna let the students know that storming the court after beating the fourth-ranked team in early February is a no-no.
