Where to watch Duke vs Arizona in men's March Madness Sweet 16 tonight: Time, TV channel
A rematch of Cooper Flagg and Caleb Love from earlier this college basketball season headlines Thursday's slate of Sweet 16 games in the NCAA Tournament with Duke and Arizona squaring off.
But this time around, a trip to the Elite Eight of March Madness is on the line.
No. 1 Duke and No. 4 Arizona are set to face each other on Thursday, March 27 at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey in the Sweet 16 of the East Region at 9:39 p.m. ET.
When these two squads met in November at the McKale Center in Tuscon, Arizona, Flagg led the then-No. 12 ranked Blue Devils to a 69-55 signature road win with 24 points on 10 -for-22 shooting from the field with seven rebounds, three blocks, three assists and a steal.
Flagg averaged 16.0 points in Duke's first- and second-round wins against No. 16 seed Mount St. Mary's and No. 9 seed Baylor. Duke has played like the team to beat in the NCAA Tournament, catalyzed by its depth and its high-powered offense and defense. The Blue Devils rank No. 1 and No. 3 on KenPom in offense and defense, respectively.
Love lifted Arizona past the second round and into the Sweet 16 with 29 points against the Wildcats' former Pac-12 foe, No. 5 seed Oregon, including a few key 3-pointers down the stretch in the second half. Arizona enters Thursday's game with the No. 13 ranked defense on KenPom.
The winner of Duke-Arizona will get the winner of Alabama-BYU, which precedes the Blue Devils and Wildcats at the Prudential Center on Thursday, in the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament on Saturday.
