Duke vs Notre Dame Game Preview

Why Duke Will Win

The Blue Devils didn’t play all that well against Louisville and still won by nine on the road.

They couldn’t hit free throws and allowed too many threes, but they won by rebounding like mad. They’ve come up with over 40 boards in two of the last three games, and now they’re going against a team that can’t do anything on the glass.

What’s Going To Happen

Can Notre Dame really pull this off?

It can’t rebound with Duke, who’s getting balanced scoring when Paolo Banchero isn’t taking over, but it’ll make this a grind.

The Blue Devils will pull this off – the three-point defense is still the best in the ACC despite the recent issues – but it’ll have to hang on late.
