Duke has not been to a Final Four since they lost to a UConn team led by Emeka Okafor and Ben Gordon in 2004. The current group of Duke Seniors: Jon Scheyer, Lance Thomas, Brian Zoubek, and Jordan Davidson have not advanced past the Sweet 16. With this in mind, Duke believes that there is an increased sense of urgency this season to not only advance to the Final Four, but to win the entire tournament. As a number 1 seed in the South Region, Duke may just be ready and have the talent to advance to Coach K’s 11th Final Four and give him his 4th NCAA Tournament Title.
