I said PURELY based on NC's. Of course the goal is to win a NC every year and of course the Duke would trade a acc tourney win for a NC, but so many variables come into play that winning a NC for any program even with talent isn't always possible, injuries, running into a hot team, having a bad game,etc. Was Villanova better than Georetown when Nova won it all.... no. Was Duke better than UNLV when Duke beat them in the final four... no. Things happen. But if you consistently put yourself in a position to win it all, which Duke does, then you are not over-rated. I don't know the exact numbers but Duke averages about 25 wins +/- each year. How many other teams can boast that type of success? Those that can are not overrated either. Your over-rated argument, still does not hold water.
