The Duke Blue Devils men’s basketball team is back on the road to play the Boston College Eagles on Saturday (8 p.m., ESPN) at Conte Forum.
The third-ranked Blue Devils (15-2, 7-0 ACC) have won 11 games in a row for the first time under third-year coach Jon Scheyer, who has Duke off to a 4-0 start on the road for the first time since 2020. The Devils haven’t won five road games to start a season since winning its first seven away games in Zion Williamson’s one-and-done year in Durham (2018-19).
Boston College (8-9, 1-5), which hasn’t beaten Duke since 2017, has dropped 29 of 32 games in the all-time series against the Devils. Cooper Flagg, the favorite to win National Player of the Year and projected No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, will try to lead Duke to its 10th straight win against the Eagles.
