Maryland Defeats No. 4 Ranked Duke

Congrats to the University of Maryland Terps (No. 22) on their win last night over Duke (No. 4).

The Terps pulled off the 79-72 win in fine fashion giving them a tie for the lead in the ACC rankings.

Greivis Vasquez was the high scorer on the night for Maryland with 20 points that included a much needed basket with 37 seconds left.

"This is a dream come true," Vasquez said.

Duke's Nolan Smith was the high scorer for the Blue Devils with scored 20. The Terps shut down Duke's eight-game winning streak causing lots of pandamonium and ruckus on (and off) the court.

Only one game remains in the regular season for the two teams with have Maryland traveling to Virginia on Saturday, and Duke hosting North Carolina.

Let the (March) madness begin. Oops. It already has.

Question: This is another case of the 'divided world we live in'. Why is it that when 27 people get arrested, and police with riot gear are called in, the perps are called 'party-goers' - not rioters but after a devastating hurricane, earthquake, or other natual disasters like the ones seen in Chile, Haiti, and in New Orleans, people going into survival mode are called looters, refugees, and thugs?

I'm just asking.
