Duke's Sweet 16 opponent is now official.
After a thrilling win over Kansas that included a game-winner at the buzzer, St. John's has advanced to the Sweet 16 in Washington, D.C. to take on the Blue Devils. Duke and St. John's will do battle on Friday, March 27th, at a yet-to-be-determined time.
It'll be the first major hurdle for Jon Scheyer and Duke on their quest to the Final Four and, hopefully, a national title for the first time in 11 years. Rick Pitino is a two-time national championship-winning coach, and the Johnnies will be well-prepared to take advantage of the flaws Duke has recently put on tape.
