(be forewarned this was completely stream of consciousness and not proofread – it’s nearly 11pm!!)
The Blue Devils season ends with an Elite 8 loss to NC State, while it’s not the ending Blue Devils fans were hoping for, 63 teams experience heartbreak in this tournament. NC State ends Dukes run with a 76-64 victory and a trip to Phoenix for the Wolfpack.
For the Blue Devils some of the same demons that plagued them in the last NC State game reared their ugly heads. The Blue Devil guards once again had tough nights on both ends of the floor – honestly the entire Duke offense was inept for the better part of the 40 minute game.
