This game goes off Wednesday, 9:00 pm Eastern – ESPN
Top-ranked Duke visits Florida State on Wednesday night in a game that can be seen on ESPN. Duke is 15-0 this college basketball season and has rarely been tested. They may not get much of a test on Wednesday unless Florida State plays better than they have recently. The Seminoles are coming off back-to-back road losses at Auburn and Virginia Tech.
Florida State enters Wednesday's game having won 11 of 16 games this season but they are going to have to shoot the ball a lot better than they have recently to keep this game close. They have shot 35 percent from the floor in their past two games and they are just 12 of 50 from 3-point range. Head coach Leonard Hamilton believes the team will shoot better on Wednesday and have a chance to be competitive. It won’t be easy against a Duke team that has won 25-straight games going back to last season. The Seminoles have one win this season against a team ranked in the Top 20 as they beat Baylor who was ranked #15. Florida State has beaten three #1 ranked teams in school history.
