Notre Dame men's basketball will attempt to do what it nearly did in January: beat Duke.

The Irish lost to the Blue Devils 67-59 in South Bend on Jan. 6, in a game they very easily could have won.

But nothing has been easy for Notre Dame (7-15, 2-9 ACC) in the middle of its six-game losing streak. No. 9 Duke (16-5, 7-3) should be plenty motivated in Cameron Indoor Stadium coming off its road loss to No. 3 North Carolina on Saturday.

Duke is led by center Kyle Filipowski, who averages 17.7 points and 8.5 rebounds per game. The 7-foot sophomore scored just seven points on 2-of-12 shooting in the win over Notre Dame last month. The Blue Devils leaned on forward Mark Mitchell (23 points and 14 rebounds) and guard Jeremy Roach (18 points and four steals) in that victory.
