So, you know, Michigan State playing in Breslin and Caleb Foster kind of took over late and made some really, really important plays.
And having guys like that, that, you know, they may not be the go-to as often as they would be on another team.
But, you know, when it's time to do it, they've got guys that'll do it.
And they've had...
great contributions off the bench at different times it's just not been the same guy every time so um and i i've been really impressed with and you know i i can't tell you how often i've seen this or anything like that it's not like i'm comparing it to anything but it seems like this year there have been multiple occasions where you didn't think duke played very well in the first half
And I just don't see very often where the switch gets flipped at halftime and the team comes out a totally different team in the second half.
And we've seen that multiple times with Duke.
And you sit and argue.
It's kind of crazy.
It's crazy.
And you can sit there and say, well, they shouldn't let that happen in the first half.
OK, I mean, they're talking about that, too.
They're trying to figure that out.
Yeah, but that, like I chalked that up to, you know, when you're bludgeoning somebody, you know, it is easy kind of to take your foot off the gas.
And that's what happened, I think, with North Carolina when they played against Syracuse.
Um, I think it's happened a little more often with Carolina as compared to Duke, but, um, but with such a young team and Duke is a young team, um, you know, they got a lot of freshmen and sophomores that are playing key roles and flipping that switch is not, not easy.
And they seem to have made it look easy.
Oh, I wouldn't even know what to do.
You know, I'm so bad with lines.
Like I have a I have a friend that used to ask me this 20 years ago would ask me, he says, hey, so-and-so is a six point favorite.
