Air Force gives Duke a run for their money

Okay, I've gotta give some press to my alma mater, the U.S. Air Force Academy. Their men's basketball team was 4-0 going into the semi-final round of the College Basketball Experience tournament. They'd already won those 4 games by an average of 27 points against teams like Stanford, Long Beach State, and Colorado. But tonight they had to face Duke. Bottom line: Duke was hitting everything; Air Force couldn't hit anything. If the Zoomies could have hit some of their early 3-pointers, I think that Duke would have lost a lot of their confidence and the game would have ended a lot differently than the 15 points Duke won by. With the seasoned veterans they have, I think Air Force is going to have a great season. For more about the game, read this article in the Mercury News.
