Column: Savoring the big Buckeye win over No. 1 Duke

First things first. (I’ll get into the history of the BigTen/ACC Challenge soon enough.) But, first, I want to take a little time and enjoy the flavor of Tuesday’s 71-66 victory over #1 Duke and their ageless leader, Mike Krzyzewski. Let’s face it: this win washed some of the bitter football taste away and allowed us to turn our attention happily to the basketball court. What a second half! C.J. who? TreVeyon who? I’m now tuned in to E.J. Liddell, Zed Key, and Cedric Russell. The game was the showcase of the Challenge this year and underscores the Big Ten’s supremacy as a basketball conference.
