Goatie how about this:

ND undersized big man Bonzie Colstons last two games vs. Duke (@duke & neutral last season) are 31 & 11, and 12 & 12, both highly efficient games. But that was going against Plumlee and Jeter. Amile Jefferson was out. Jefferson is a stronger defender but doesn't pose the quite the size mismatch Plumlee did.

Vasturia shot combined 12/27 for 34 pts while Kennard shot 12/29 for 36. Seems like an even matchup there.

The other matchups have changed and will be new tonight.

Notre Dame has been shooting considerably better from 3 than Duke lately, and ND shoots FTs at 82% clip as a team - #1 highest in the country - and could benefit from home calls in a big game...? (ND has averaged 1.5 more FT attempts per game at home vs. away in last 6 of each game - not a major difference. And Duke is in top 3rd of country in terms of not fouling much.)
