Aces to play Duke Dec. 20 at Duke

Love the upgrade to their schedule, but it will probably be the weakest team Marty has had. Will be an embarrassing evening.

Awesome get. But, agreed. With the defections and a small lineup I'm guessing the dukies take their door off the pedal I and still drop at least 90 on the way to a 40+ point

Respect to Evansville for doing this.

Would rather do this than play an RPI 250 team.

I would rather have a team that could take Duke to two overtimes, and lose/or win on a last second shot. Not going to happen this year, and probably never.

Is this the start of a home and home? Do the Aces get a return game in 2018?

How much is the check? Maybe Marty was just hoping for a chance to coach inside of Cameron Indoor before he retires/gets retired from coaching? This is not the year you go out and try to bag the elephant. That was a couple years back. There's no strategy here. This is Longwoodesque.

Nothing has been said about a return game. I doubt that Duke will be coming to the Ford Center.
