Thirty-five years since App State men’s basketball upset the Duke Blue Devils 75-70 at Cameron Indoor Stadium and 29 years since the two teams have faced each other, the Mountaineers (2-3) were no match this time for the No.6 Blue Devils (6-1) losing 93-58 as Duke won their 129th consecutive non-conference home game.
Falling to 2-45 against North Carolina ACC opponents and losing their third ACC game in the last three seasons, App State fell behind when the Blue Devils jumped out to a quick 12-2 lead and never looking back.
Taking at one point, a 40-point lead in the second half, all five Blue Devil starters scored in double digits.
