The Duke Blue Devils are having an odd season. While they aren’t struggling to the extent of some other teams, they have definitely had a slow start to their season. But they will be looking to get a strong win when they go up against the Miami Hurricanes.

The Hurricanes have struggled all season long. They have a poor record of 6-10 and are currently on a 4-game losing streak. Their last win was funnily enough against the team that last beat Duke.

But will this be a regulation Duke win, or will this be another upset in a poor season?

Duke Blue Devils: Adding to their win streak?

While the Blue Devils are having a tough season, they are still second in the ACC. However, they will need to keep stacking more conference wins to build on this position. Their young core is finally finding chemistry with each other and playing better under Coach K’s tried and tested system.

The Hurricanes are coming into this game, already depleted. Star player Isaiah Wong has missed time with injury, and an injury to Matt Cross will further handicap the team for this game.
