With Duke’s 74-62 win over Iowa, the Blue Devils are now 2-1 in the Big Ten and 1-0 in the ACC.
Just kidding but wins over solid Iowa and Ohio State teams counts for a lot.
For a time in the first half, it was a pretty even game. Duke surged ahead several times only to see the competitive Hawkeyes pare the lead back down. But at about 7:40 in the first half, the Blue Devils started to pull ahead and though Iowa certainly never gave up, they just weren’t quite good enough to pull off a legitimate comeback.
