Vitale picks Duke

INDIANAPOLIS -- A few hours before game time, ESPN's Dick Vitale said he thinks Duke will defeat West Virginia in tonight's Final Four semifinal nightcap at Lucas Oil Stadium.

"But," Vitale said, "it's probably going to be the best defensive team Duke has seen all season.

"If West Virginia has that 1-3-1 zone working the way it has been, Duke's going to have a lot of trouble finding shots. Those three shooters [Jon Scheyer, Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith] are going to have work very hard to get looks.

"But Duke's tough. They've been a tough team all along, so I think they'll find a way to survive."

What a bunch of low class Duke fans chanting as a WVU player is down. There was no need for that. Absolutely no class!!!!!

Again moron, they chanted the Butler's NAME as a show of respect. Did you post this lie on every article?

First of all -- no need for calling people names. Secondly, the WV fans were chanting his name, which is by the way, Da'Sean Butler. The Duke fans were chanting "its all over".
No lies -- just the truth.
Thank you!!!!

The WV fans could be heard, because Butler went down by the WV side of the arena.
The Duke fans were not as loud, at the other end of the arena during the injury. But you can still hear them chanting "it's all over".

Watch the tape.
