Notre Dame (11-5) visits No. 9 Duke (14-3) on Saturday in a clash of ACC powers.
The Fighting Irish have been a thorn in Mike Krzyzewski's side since joining the conference two seasons ago. A 30-point loss in Cameron Indoor Stadium (90-60) was followed by two Notre Dame victories last season. Duke has lost three of its last four games in the rivalry overall.

The latest was a 74-64 result in the ACC tournament semifinal last year.
Speaking of losses, the Blue Devils fell 68-63 to Clemson on Wednesday, snapping a five-game winning streak. A return home should serve as a remedy for the defending national champions.

What They're Saying
Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski (via Yahoo): "If there's only so much lead in your pencil, you have to be careful how many words you write. But that's the game and you've got to be really smart. It's tough for a young team to be really smart."
Notre Dame junior V.J. Beachem (via 247Sports): "[Cameron Indoor Stadium is] really just crazy. The court honestly feels smaller than it actually is and it feels like they're really on top of you. Really the key is just staying patient, especially offensively, and not letting the crowd rush you."
