I love this time of the year, though it can be hard on the true-believer's heart. Sometimes I regret drinking the Kool Aid during my undergraduate days -- Duke's overtime win over UNC reduced me to a quivering wreck, emotionally spent. With UNC turning it around at Wake today, my greatest fear, that our win would catalyze them to stop sucking for the rest of the year, may yet be realized.
And Stanford's win over Arizona today was simply insane. Almost made me think they deserve the #1 ranking, but then I remembered that the Pac-10 just sucks compared to the ACC, so our record, even with a loss, is still more impressive. I doubt that holds much water out west, though, so they're probably all bitching about the East Coast bias.
