I genuinely think the ACC being atrocious has negatively impacted Duke during the tournament since they've been fairly young teams that don't end up getting battle tested in conference play.
Also, my eyes tell me they don't get the same "favored nation" status they used to get from the zebras. Still get calls of course but for a long long time K was winning some big games simply cause he could intimidate the refs. Scheyer still has the Duke name but he doesn't have that sideline cache.

This is how I generally feel about Gonzaga.
Seems Scheyer has smartened up and front loaded his OOC schedule. Beating up on the bottom 80% of the ACC definitely does not help them calibrate to the tourney.

Not convinced Scheyer knows what he's doing yet other than stacking his roster with IronDuke $$.
