#827 - Discussing the ACC-SEC Challenge matchups

The ACC-SEC Challenge matchups have been announced, and Donald and Scott Rich combine to discuss it all on Episode 827!

Before we discuss the challenge, we give our takes on the report that the Duke-Michigan game is going to be shifted to LoanDepot Park, the home of the Miami Marlins. A baseball field?! We go through the ins and outs of keeping the game but adding the spectable of it being in a retractable roof non-basketball stadium.

We then get into the ACC-SEC Challenge, first on the men’s side. Duke will head to Gainesville to take on Florida in a matchup that we all expected. Still, it’s a potential top 5 matchup and we’re pretty excited that it’s another high profile non-conference game for Duke. We also discuss the other matchups in the ACC-SEC Challenge and which ones we’re looking forward to seeing.

We finally end on the women’s side with Duke drawing South Carolina, one of the two best programs in women’s basketball, and having that game in Cameron. For Kara Lawson’s bunch to take the next step in the program’s desire to ascend to the top of college basketball, they have to defeat teams like Dawn Staley and the Gamecocks. We’re excited about the opportunity the matchup presents for Duke to take that next step and show they should be considered a title contender.
