Matt Norlander of CBSSports.com believes the Duke Blue Devils can be the best team in college basketball this season.
Of course, Norlander also seems to be a Duke fan of sorts:
If Tyus Jones is going to be this good all season then look the hell out.

Here’s what he had to say following the Blue Devils’ impressive win at Wisconsin last night:
Duke looked so good people finally started to come around to my side (I picked Duke to win the whole thing, back in October). Coach K’s kids shot 65 percent from the floor. Had 1.33 points per possession. Against a veteran Bo Ryan team, on the road, with as much talent as Wisconsin has? It’s remarkable. All told, I’m not sure Krzyzewski could count, say, 20 wins in the regular season he’ll be more proud of. The freshmen trio: terrific again. Tyus Jones had 22 points, six rebounds, four assists and one turnover. If he’s going to continue to play at this level, yes, Duke can be the best team in the country. The Jahlil Okafor-Frank Kaminsky matchup wasn’t as good as we’d hoped. Okafor finished with 13 points and six rebounds; Kaminsky had 17 and nine.
