Duke announced the field for the Blue Devil Classic, a multi-team event to be held in Cameron Indoor Stadium in November.

The Blue Devils invited three teams for a round-robin event: LaSalle, Bucknell and Southern Indiana.

Duke’s three games will all be held in Durham. The Blue Devils will take on Bucknell on November 17th, then the Explorers on November 21st before welcoming the Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles on November 24th.

Obviously Duke will be favored in all three games, but as Coach K taught us, it’s not wise to take victory for granted. You can imagine that with teams like Arizona and Michigan State on the schedule that a young team might make the classic mistake of looking ahead, but that’s not possible: the Arizona game, which is also in Cameron, is on November 10th, while the Michigan State tussle is on November 14th in the Champions Classic at Chicago’s United Center.

Here’s the full schedule for the event:

  • Tuesday, Nov. 14

Bucknell at La Salle

  • Friday, Nov. 17

Bucknell at Duke

Southern Indiana at La Salle

  • Monday, Nov. 20

Southern Indiana at Bucknell

  • Tuesday Nov 21

La Salle at Duke

  • Friday Nov 24

Southern Indiana at Duke
