It’s not that often in college basketball when teams have the chance for a letdown game in the second game of the season.
Well, that’s what is staring the No. 4 Duke Blue Devils in the face after defeating the No. 3 Kansas Jayhawks on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden and having a quick turnaround to face Colorado State on Friday night.
The Blue Devils faced the same thing last season when Duke rolled Kentucky by 34 points in the opening game of the season and then faced Army only a few days later, and sleepwalked through that game just a bit, winning by 22.
