With the Hoosiers lurking, the Blue Devils will be thrilled to get back home to Durham as they will be in Maui the week before for the Maui Invitational. Duke will play San Diego State on November 19 with two other games on November 20 and November 21.

As for Indiana, they won’t have much traveling to do as they will come to Durham after two home games against UT Arlington on November 20 and UC Davis on November 23.

Duke and Indiana have become very familiar with each other through the ACC vs. Big Ten Challenge as the Blue Devils went up to Assembly Hall last season and defeated the Hoosiers 91-81.

The two teams also met in the 2015-16 season in the ACC vs. Big Ten Challenge where the Blue Devils defeated Indiana at Cameron Indoor Stadium 94-74.

Indiana is entering the second year under new head coach Archie Miller who went 16-15, losing in their only game in the Big Ten Tournament which ended their season.

Before the Blue Devils can look ahead to their date with Indiana on November 29 at 9:30pm ET on ESPN, they have many challenges that lie ahead but this young and talented Blue Devils team should be up for the task and could be looking to go 7-0 against the Indiana Hoosiers.
