Duke basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski (Nell Redmond-USA TODAY Sports)
Duke basketball may need to fend off three-game sweeps twice in three days.
The last time the Duke basketball program suffered a third defeat to one team in the same season came on March 10, 1995.
That loss was at the hands of Wake Forest, featuring ACC legends Randolph Childress and Tim Duncan. And it happened in ACC Tournament hotspot Greensboro, officially extinguishing the consistently discouraging 1994-95 campaign (13-18) under Mike Krzyzewski’s fill-in at the time, Pete Gaudet.
Of course, the date and scenario of that game are eerily similar to the scheduled March 10 survival effort from the No.
