Duke has started 2-0 in the Atlantic Coast Conference play. Both games have been at home. This year the experts are saying it's Duke for first and a fight by everyone else for Second. If their first two conference games are any indication Duke could lose as many as four games in the ACC.
They have not yet hit the road in any conference game and they were beatable in their two home games. I don't see anybody else in the league that probably wins 12 games so I don't see anybody unsetting the Devils and taking first away from them, but I don't think it is clear cut like everyone has been saying.
Compared to Saturday's game Sunday's NFL playoffs were ho hum. Green Bay is my pick in the NFC in the Super Bowl. They match up with Atlanta this weekend and weather should not play any role at all inside the Georgia Dome. Seattle at the Bears I don't see that one as much of a game.
The AFC the so called top four are in. The J -E- T- S travel to Foxbourgh to take on the Patriots while Pittsburgh host the Ravens. In both of those games all four teams could advance so I suspect 17-14 games in both contest with the team with the turnover in the fourth quarter losing.
I bet you didn't even know the ACC played a bowl game yesterday as the 9th ACC team went bowling. Nevada beat Boston College 20-13 which I think was a good score for BC. So many bowl games it is hard to matchup teams from different leagues in the minor bowls. Nevada was #2 in the league with Boise State. BC was what 7th in the ACC. I think BC played well even though they lost.

Don't forget that Seattle went to Chicago in Week 6 and beat the Bears 23-20. I don't think anyone thought the Seachickens would give New Orleans much of a game either...
