The suddenly struggling Miami Hurricanes travel to one of the toughest places to play in college basketball, Cameron Indoor Stadium, to face the resurgent Duke Blue Devils.

The Blue Devils sit at 13-5, with a winning record in the ACC, but the Blue Devils have set the bar high. This feels like a disappointing season thus far. A win on Saturday over a ranked Miami Hurricanes could jumpstart and propel a stagnant Blue Devils team. Who will be victorious on Saturday, the challenging Hurricanes or the lurking Blue Devils?
