GREENVILLE, S.C. — Playing in the NCAA tournament's regional semifinals for the 26th time in Mike Krzyzewski's 42 seasons as Duke's coach, the Blue Devils face a team they've never previously met in the tournament.
Texas Tech rallied past Notre Dame in the game's final minutes Sunday night, topping the Irish 59-53, to advance to meet Duke on Thursday night at 9:40 p.m. at San Francisco's Chase Center.
So the Sweet 16 will pair Duke (30-6), the West Region's No. 2 seed, against the No. 3-seeded Red Raiders (27-9).
