If NC State was feeling any pressure tonight, that was never apparent for a second as the Wolfpack started the game on a 15-0 run and made an embarrassment of Duke, which needed almost eight minutes to get on the scoreboard.
When you wrong-foot a team for that long, you can see the building mental struggle, where every possession becomes 30 seconds of please-don’t-screw-up. That was Duke’s night.
