The Demon Deacons closed out the regular season with a 10-5-2 overall record and a 4-4-1 conference mark, which is good for a fifth place finish. Duke closed out the regular season with a 12-6 overall record and a 5-4 ACC mark for the fourth seed. If the Deacs win, they will face the winner of the Maryland (#8)/North Carolina (#1) game.
