What They Are Saying

What they are saying:

“If Belmont pulls off the upset it wouldn't be the biggest shocker ever…If a 15 seed can beat a 2 seed, this is the game in which it'll happen.” – Josh Katzowitz, SportingNews

“Expect a better battle than you might think. Duke will get up early and will coast, but Belmont will go on enough of a run with the three to get everyone buzzing. And then Duke will be Duke.” – Pete Fiutak, CollegeFootballNews.com

“The Belmont Bruins have tournament experience but are no match for the Blue Devils inside-out game. There will not be two teams named the Bruins advancing to the second round from this region.” – Ian Zymarakis, Bleacherreport

“I have an active fantasy life. But that upset is not brewing nor is this first round win for Belmont. Great job getting here but Duke has just too much firepower on the perimeter. But, Washington DC is nice this time of year; they should enjoy themselves.” – Joe Lunardi, ESPN

“This should be an easy opening-round victory for the Blue Devils, who have a balanced attack and one of the most experienced coaches in Tourney history in Mike Krzyzewski. There will be a lot of folks around the nation rooting for Belmont, but surely to little avail.” – CBS Sportsline.com
