TEAMS:
Life is good for Hater Nation. The Patriots lost at home in the playoffs despite leading at halftime, Notre Dame lost in the BCS title game in spectacular fashion, the Lakers are playing like the Bobcats and the Dwight Howard experiment is working as well as Crystal Pepsi, the Cowboys missed the playoffs yet again as Tony Romo continues to do Tony Romo things, and last night the top ranked Duke Blue Devils got crushed by 27 against Miami. To top it all off Duke Superfan Dick Vitale was in attendance to see his beloved Dukies fall to Gino Torretta’s alma mater. Duke definitely didn’t show up last night but thankfully the haters on Twitter did. Here’s some of the funniest tweets about Duke’s performance last night.

Miami hands Duke the third-worst defeat ever for a #1 ranked team
“Celebrate good times, come on!” – Kool and the Gang Historic losses usually do not have the Duke Blue Devils as the victim, but that is exactly what took place on Wednesday night in Coral Gables, when the Miami Hurricanes manhandled Duke by the tune of a 90-63 score. The loss was the third-worst ever for a team ranked #1 in the nation. This game was never really close, as...

According to a Nike release, Duke is one of twelve college basketball teams around the country to wear “Hyper Road Elite” jerseys this season. Last season, the Blue Devils were one of eight programs to wear the Nike “Platinum” jerseys and while many middle aged men complained about the look, the players themselves seemed to enjoy them.

Duke searching for answers offensively in Ryan Kelly’s absence
It’s no secret that the Blue Devils haven’t been the same team since Ryan Kelly went out with an injured right foot during their game with Clemson on January 8th. Duke has lost two of its three games, including an embarrassing 27-point defeat to Miami on Wednesday night. After it was clear that Kelly would miss significant time, many people speculated that he would be missed...
Four Duke players among plus/minus leaders in conference play
While the ACC season is young, and Duke has played less than a quarter of its games, the Blue Devils are going through a huge transformation right now so its appropriate to point out any impressive number the players on the team are putting up right now. Duke suffered its first loss to NC State during this stretch, so I didn’t expect the numbers to be this good, but four Blue Devils...
Duke Morning F.I.S.T. – Hit by a truck Edition
Duke has had some bad beats, but last night was the worst one since they were beat by 27 against Clemson in 2009. Coach Mike Krzyzewski forced his players to remain on the floor that night to soak in just how bad they had gotten beat, so they could take some lessons from a negative. The Blue Devils ended that season with a 23-point defeat to Villanova, the last time they shot as...
Update: Reports that Duke practiced late last night upon arrival from Miami was a joke
UPDATE: This was a poorly stated joke, evidently.
According to Dan Patrick on his radio show today, he reported from sources “who work [at Duke]” that the team’s charter plane arrived back in Durham after midnight. About an hour after arriving in Durham (at 1:15 according to Patrick) the Blue Devils began practice at 1:30 AM and didn’t stop until 4:45 AM. I’ll link audio...
Duke Morning F.I.S.T. – Beat Miami Edition
After a six day break, the longest remaining on the schedule, Duke takes the court again tonight against Miami in their second road game of the season. The last one didn’t go so well, as the Blue Devils fell to NC State in their first game without senior forward Ryan Kelly. The game against Georgia Tech last week showed that this Duke team still has a lot of work to do for it to...
Duke Morning F.I.S.T. – January 25 Edition
Duke is still reeling from their blowout loss below, and have a lot of questions to answer moving forward with just 13 games remaining in the regular season. They did not, however practice late into the night/early morning as was reported (joked about) yesterday. With the Blue Devils’ recent struggles, Mason Plumlee has also begun to slip in Player of the Year voting, as chronicled...

Miami destroyed No.1 Duke by 27 points
No.1 Duke was handed the worst loss ever for the No.1 overall team team in the AP poll on Wednesday night against the University of Miami. Duke’s guards (Quinn Cook and Seth Curry) played atrocious, shooting a combined 1 for 29 from the floor. Miami went on a 25-1 run during the first half and never looked back. Is Michigan the next team to take a stab at No.1?These three consecutive...
