In a non-conference game on Tuesday, the Hofstra Pride (6-3) will travel to face the 22nd ranked Duke Blue Devils (6-3).
Duke enters the contest with a 6-3 record overall. Duke was about to play Charlotte after suffering consecutive losses, including to Georgia Tech in their initial ACC game. In that match, Duke put on a dominant display. They would lead by eighteen points at the half and never trailed during the game. The final score was 80-56 for Duke. According to KenPom’s adjusted efficiency rating, Duke comes into the game ranked 17th. Additionally, they rank 31st on defense and 15th on offense this season. Duke is 44th in the country in terms of scoring 80.8 points per contest this season. This year, they have genuinely been a second-half team.

Hofstra has a 6-3 record going into the match. Despite having a poor record at first (only 1-2), they soon turned things around and won five games in a row, all of which came against marginal favorites. When they played Saint Louis the previous time, they were again small favorites. Hofstra had an early advantage, leading by 11 points at the break, but Saint Louis would rally to tie the game at two points at the end of the first half. With less than two minutes remaining, Hofstra managed to extend their advantage to seven points, but ultimately lost 71-68. According to this year’s KenPoms adjusted efficiency ratings, Hofstra comes into the contest rated 101st. This year, they rank 141st on defense and 80th on offense. This season, the Pride score 77.9 points per match, good for 82nd place in the country. They rank 22nd in the league in shooting efficiency this season, having had a strong season.
