Duke Blue Devils vs Clemson Tigers; A Pivotal ACC Showdown

2025-03-01

The No. 2 Duke Blue Devils (20-2, 12-0 ACC) will face the Clemson Tigers (18-5, 10-2 ACC) in a highly anticipated ACC matchup on Saturday, February 8, at Littlejohn Coliseum. The game, set to tip off at 6:30 p.m. ET, will be broadcast live on ESPN, with Dave O’Brien, Cory Alexander, and Dick Vitale on the call.

Duke enters the game riding a 16-game winning streak, the longest active streak in the nation and their longest since the 2005-06 season. The Blue Devils are coming off an 83-54 victory over Syracuse, where they showcased their dominance with five players scoring in double figures and a season-high 23 points off turnovers. Duke’s defense has been a key factor in their success, ranking second nationally in adjusted defensive efficiency (88.3) and fifth in scoring defense (59.8 points allowed per game).

Clemson, tied for second in the ACC, has been strong at home, with only two losses at Littlejohn Coliseum this season, both requiring overtime. A win for Duke would extend their lead in the ACC standings, while a Clemson victory would narrow the gap to just one game.

Freshman standout Cooper Flagg continues to lead Duke, averaging 20.5 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 4.3 assists per game. Flagg, the ACC’s Preseason Rookie of the Year, has been instrumental in Duke’s success, ranking among the top 10 in the conference in scoring, rebounding, assists, and blocks.

The Blue Devils hold a commanding 115-33 all-time series lead over Clemson, including a 26-20 advantage at Littlejohn Coliseum. Duke has won eight of the last 10 meetings between the two teams.

This matchup could have significant implications for the ACC regular-season title race, as Duke looks to maintain its perfect conference record and Clemson aims to close the gap.
