Is Duke or Notre Dame going to get back in the win column today in Durham?

Right now I don’t know the answer to that question but what I do know is that Duke and Notre Dame are both looking to get back in the win column today when they match up on the hardwood in Durham!

Why?

Because they’ve both lost their previous Atlantic Coast Conference games but Duke has lost two games while Notre Dame has lost one!

Duke comes into the game with a record of 7-7 while they’re 5-5 in the Atlantic Coast Conference and ninth in the Atlantic Coast Conference standings. “according to the acc.com/ standings

Why?

Because they lost to Miami on Monday February 1, 2021 by a score of 77-75!

Where?

While Notre Dame comes into the game with a record of 7-10 while they’re 4-7 in the Atlantic Coast Conference and is twelfth in the Atlantic Coast Conference standings. “according to theacc.com/ standings

Notre Dame was a force to be reckoned with in the first half, coming onto the court with a 14-0 run in the first six minutes of play. Notre Dame brought the pressure on defense and prevented GT from scoring their first bucket until the 13:07 mark. The defensive strategy resulted in 10 points off of five forced turnovers. “according to an article on und.com”

Georgia Tech came into the second half with a newfound aggression while Notre Dame lost their groove. Laszewski carried the Irish with 15 points and perfect accuracy, making all six of his shots, but it was not enough to maintain the lead. The Yellow Jackets came back and used their momentum to escape with an 82-80 victory.according to an article on und.com”
