The Jackets welcome Duke to McCamish Pavilion on January 8th for its first home game following the winter holiday. The date of this game gives students a great opportunity to check out a marquee brand in college basketball. Last year Tech traveled to Durham for its sole meeting with the Blue Devils and actually held Zion and co at bay for 30 minutes before eventually falling 66-53.
Last year’s Duke team may have boasted the most freshmen talent its storied program has ever seen. However, despite a #1 seed in the NCAA tournament, the Devils fell to Michigan State in the Elite 8.
