Duke Basketball Roundup

Well, that was fun! The Blue Devils showed exactly zero mercy facing an injured and outmanned Notre Dame club on Tuesday night, throttling the Irish in a game that felt like it was over only minutes after it had begun. There are so many superlatives coming out of the win -- the biggest Notre Dame home loss since 1898 -- that it takes some time for the DBR Podcast to fully lay them all out. The podcast crew has special praise for the balance Duke showed on offense and defense. After the break, the guys dive into a few other topics, including the never-ending search for a good nickname for Dame Sarr.

There is no rest for the weary and no time to bask in the glow of that stirring weekend win over Michigan. Jon Scheyer and he guys are in the Midwest as they get ready for an ACC clash with Notre Dame. The Irish have been bit pretty hard by the injury bug but still have some players who can make life miserable for the opposition, especially if they get hot from 3-point land. In their latest episode, the Duke Basketball Roundup breaks down everything you need to know about Notre Dame.After the break, Jason and Donald also dive into the weekend early bracket reveal by the NCAA selection committee. What does it tell us about Duke's potential path to the Final Four and what the committee thinks of the ACC this season?

This was arguably the biggest non-conference regular season game Duke has played in years. Everyone said it felt like a Final Four atmosphere. And when the dust cleared at the end of a physical and emotional battle, Duke was the team with the victory and the vaunted Michigan Wolverines took the L. Both Donald Wine and Scott Rich of the DBR Podcast were in the building for the game. They join Jason Evans for a look at the big takeaways from this game... a contest that will surely result in Duke being ranked #1 in the polls and with the inside track for the overall #1 seed in the NCAA tournament.

We have all had this one circled on our calendars for a while. On Saturday, Duke ventures to the nation's capital for one of the biggest non-conference games you will ever find in February. #1 Michigan versus #3 Duke (though with Houston losing this week, the winner of this game is sure to be #1 on Monday). And the Duke Basketball Roundup is uniquely situated to provide you with a great preview of this game because DBR regulars Donald Wine and Scott Rich know Michigan as well as they know any team not named Duke. Listen in to find out what it is that fuels Michigan's #1 ranked defense and why this Wolverine club is currently on a path that would make them one of the best few teams of the past 30 years! Can Duke short-circuit that journey on Saturday?
