Next Up - Princeton

Next up for Duke is Princeton, and the Tigers always pose unique problems.

Princeton has been a basketball school for a long time. When you look at the all-time winningest programs, the Tigers come in at #23 ahead of some major schools, including all but four ACC schools (NC, Duke, Syracuse and Notre Dame if you were wondering).

Duke picked Princeton to be the first opponent in Duke Indoor Stadium in 1940 (the arena is now called Cameron Indoor Stadium of course).

In the 1960s, Bill Bradley was set to come to Duke when, quite late, he told Vic Bubas that he had changed his mind and would attend Princeton.
