NC State didn’t mess around on Wednesday night.
The Wolfpack dominated No. 6 Duke from the jump, opening the game on a 10-1 run, and never looked back. NC State cruised to the 88-66 win at PNC Arena in Raleigh, snapping the Blue Devils’ seven-game win streak.
“NC State was terrific,” Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “It was a game they needed and they played like they needed it. It was our worst game, but they made us look that way. They were the hungrier team and it showed up right from the beginning.
