The high-octane Duke Blue Devils welcome the Yale Bulldogs to Cameron Indoor Stadium on Saturday for a tricky college basketball matchup.

After their beatdown of Stetson, many expected the Duke Blue Devils to absolutely bury Hartford from start to finish earlier this week. That, however, didn’t happen as Mike Krzyzewski’s team was pushed for about 25 minutes. They pulled away to get a big win, but they’re going to need to be much better at Cameron Indoor Stadium on Saturday as they take on the Yale Bulldogs.

Zion Williamson continues to be a force that can’t be contained. His efficiency on offense is a testament to how difficult it is to stop him, but he’s also been a monster on the glass and on the defensive end of the floor. Flanked by the likes of RJ Barrett and Cam Reddish, the firepower for Duke remains unbelievable.

Having said that, these freshmen, Tre Jones included, have showed that they can have moments of weakness. If teams don’t play into their hands and play their style of game, they can at least compete with this Duke team. That’s what Yale will be trying to do on Saturday afternoon.

The Bulldogs are just 4-2 right now, but they’ve played some quality teams with good results. With wins over Miami and a double-overtime loss to Memphis, they’re not a team that can be taken lightly. If the Blue Devils do, then the likes of Miye Oni and Jordan Bruner will make them pay.
