We’ve beaten Duke teams that are better than this one? Not so sure

They look awesome but then again I’ve only really watched them playing at Cameron and maybe one other time away from there. I just don’t know how we can match up. Neo better find some big boy pants to put on before then. Hansberry will compete, Hammond too but he’s outmatched size wise. Tobi has the athleticism but idk about how he will hold up vs their girth and strength I see a likely 10-20 pt loss…but miracles do happen and college bball is a strange world sometimes

Unless we learn to shoot, it's gonna be ugly against Duke **

With this team you can't look ahead. Every game a stomach ache. Though

If the rumored return of TJ is true, not so fast my friend...**

We shot the lights out in the second half in Louisville

Only watched first half- our front court was missing bunnies

hopefully CMY will have some H-O-R-S-E games to get us ready**

Worry about GT before thinking about Duke.
B Hokie • 01/27/26 05:14 AM ET
For sure, GT's shooting and tall guys will give us tough game.**

If we make 16 threes but go 50% on layups not 30% we’d have a chance **

Ask any Duke fan how comfortable they are about Saturday.

It would take a miracle game for us to beat Duke**

Worse teams than ours have beat Duke when they were better than they are

We are likely to lose by 12+. But it's basketball. Anything can happen. **
King of Hokies • 01/27/26 03:46 PM ET
Not if TJ is back. **
HokieHeartNSoul • 01/26/26 09:13 PM ET
I still see a miracle needed **
coshokie • 01/26/26 09:21 PM ET
Some good luck and fair refs, yes. Miracle? I don’t know.**
HokieHeartNSoul • 01/27/26 09:13 AM ET
Maybe we will tackle well….**
RJHokie • 01/26/26 09:04 PM ET
And not draw targeting penalties**
UpperQuad • 01/27/26 12:15 AM ET
Sometimes that’s what it takes at home
hokiepro • 01/26/26 10:54 PM ET
Depends on the zebras…….
RJHokie • 01/26/26 10:57 PM ET
Let's hope **
