I think the ACC is there, but, of course, I'm biased.

What do you think?

we're not going to erase Miami of Ohio from this, from this equation, since they're the last undefeated team, but I digress.

I, you know, let's get back to Duke because I think one of the things that's come up lately has been the second half ruts that they're in and whether they overcome those or not, of course, that's most of the time they've done that save for the game against UNC.

But what do you think is the answer?

If there is an answer for Duke figuring out how to,

not have these ruts in the second half that allow teams that are you know of those teams that we just spoke about if we were able to face them to have an opportunity to come back and it bite us in the end i think we have to be careful not trying to draw too many um patterns out of a small sample size right so like

I don't think it's the right way to lose, but we've talked on the show.

We even talked last year, Jordan, when you were on about not having a lot of these close games and the idea that that would come back to haunt us in the end.

And in a way it did, but it wasn't a pattern, right?

And for me, I've always said I want us to blow every team out by 40 because that's fun.

And I don't have to worry about the question about

uh, the, you know, the, the close games, what we could do.

And I think in the absence of, like you said, a larger sample size, people are trying to reach for the details to figure out what they can do to get better.

So my last question to you at least will be, what is that thing that we can improve on over the next month as we get towards March?

I remember them days.

Yeah, I mean, we'll talk one last bit about some stuff that happened at the end of the UNC game, but after that, it's full steam ahead.

Pitt is awaiting us, and they're not going to sit back and allow us to wallow in Saturday's defeat.

They're going to come and try to right their season, as we'll talk about.

Well, look, I'll push back slightly on the fact that John Shire was calm.
