Duke Dominates Georgia Tech in ACC Road Win

Duke Blue Devils secured a dominant 82-56 victory over Georgia Tech in their ACC matchup, maintaining their undefeated road game record. Despite Georgia Tech closing the first half with a strong 14-4 run, trimming Duke's lead to five points, Duke's robust second-half performance, led by freshmen Kon Knueppel and Cooper Flagg, ensured a comfortable win. Knueppel scored 18 points while Flagg added 13, thrilling Duke fans who turned the Atlanta game venue into a near replica of Cameron Indoor Stadium with their support. The Blue Devils' effective shooting, including 56.4% from the field and 40% from beyond the arc, overwhelmed Georgia Tech, who struggled with turnovers and maintaining offensive rhythm. Georgia Tech's coach Damon Stoudamire faces challenges in restoring the team's former glory, as the team has now dropped to a 5-7 record. Duke will take a holiday break before facing Virginia Tech, while Georgia Tech prepares for a non-conference game against Alabama A&M.
