The Duke Blue Devils are fresh off of a non-conference win against St. John's and are looking to avenge another defeat from last year where Boston College downed the Blue Devils on the strength of Ky Bowman. Bowman, last season, dropped 30 points on 50 percent shooting from the field against Duke in a BC victory. Duke is currently on an 5 game winning streak while the Eagles on in the midst of their second losing streak of the season.
The Eagles have only 2 ACC victories at the moment (2-6) and offensively, in ACC play, are averaging only 69 points per game.
