Duke Basketball Roundup #775 - Preparing for the Gators and…an ACC Championship Game?!
We’re back with Episode 775 where we begin with our preview of the Florida Gators and NO WE DON’T! DUKE’S IN THE ACC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!
All plans to start with the Florida preview were thrown out the window the second a SMU kicker sent his potential game-tying field goal yards right of the uprights, sending Duke to its second ever ACC title game. We have to lead with the events that led up to that moment and how Duke took out Wake Forest to set up this possibility. This weekend will be a championship weekend (Women’s Soccer in the College Cup, Duke Football in the ACCCG) with a Duke-Sparty matchup, and we will preview that in full later this week.
More immediately ahead of us is the ACC-SEC Challenge matchup with the defending national champions, who come into Cameron on the struggle bus, but are still a strong opponent. We get into how they’ve done, what the metrics say about them and what we’ve seen from their players. We then get into the things to watch as that game takes place on Tuesday (and the team is calling for a Blackout!). We also get into some of the other ACC-SEC Challenge matchups and our hopes for the ACC.
