Duke is arguably the most well-known college basketball program in the country, with more national titles (five) than Arizona has trips to the Final Four. The Blue Devils may also be the most-hated college hoops team, mostly because of that success.
Getting the opportunity to play Duke anywhere is no doubt high on the list of every college player, and probably a lot of coaches, and Arizona gets to do so at Cameron Indoor Stadium on Friday night to start a home-and-home series.
The Blue Devils are ranked No. 2 in the preseason AP poll and were picked to win the ACC for the eighth time in the last 11 seasons, making this a matchup of preseason conference favorites.
