Injuries
Look at that. Duke lost 2 starters to injury about 10 days ago. They collapsed. Oh wait, they won 3 straight and won the acc title. We blame our season on lawal and johnsons injuries, yet somehow lawal came back and played the last 16 games and we were never ever able to regain chemistry. We were not as close as most think. We won 19 games but were 12-0 against teams with a losing record. Against teams with winning records we were only 7-13 with 3 of those wins against mid majors st joes, gmu and colorado st, none of who will make march madness, and who were ranked a lowly 84, 90 and 124 in the net. Take those away and we were 4-13 against teams with winning records from the power conferences and st marys and vcu (who both usually make the dance). Pull back the covers and peel the onion and what do you get, a team that wasnt competitive. Dont be fooled by 19 wins

I suspect the result wouldn’t have been appreciably different w/o injuries
