Duke and Syracuse will meet up in Omaha, Neb. in a Midwest region Sweet 16 game that features the two winningest coaches in Division I men's basketball history.
Coach Mike Krzyzewski and his 2-seed Blue Devils have had one of the easiest tournament runs of the teams remaining. Duke had no trouble taking care of 15-seed Iona in an 89-67 win in the first round, and then Marvin Bagley III and Gary Trent Jr. combined for 40 points and 14 rebounds in an 87-62 win over 7-seed Rhode Island.
Jim Boeheim's Orange have not had as simple of a path t this point, as they started their tournament on Wednesday in a First Four game against Arizona State.
