Duke moved to 4-0 with an impressive 71-52 win over Texas A&M in Cameron Thursday evening.

The Blue Devils held A&M to 18-42 from the floor and forced 23 turnovers. Toss in an imposing rebounding advantage - Duke had 39 rebounds and 18 offensive to 20 and 5 for the Aggies - and that was just too much to overcome, despite the Blue Devils shooting just 24-61 (39.3 percent).

Duke was up as much as 27 in the second half. Their size and intensity were just too much for Texas A&M, as coach Joni Taylor said afterwards: “I thought Duke did a really good job of never letting us feel comfortable in our offense.
