The Duke Blue Devils and Wisconsin Badgers are playing for the NCAA Tournament national championship on Monday night and the title matchup is on CBS and streaming online from the March Madness website at Lucas Oil Stadium as the two number one seeds battle for the men's college basketball trophy following a strong Final Four over the weekend.
Duke comes in after winning over Michigan State, while Wisconsin comes in after knocking off the Kentucky Wildcats, stopping their undefeated season. Duke and Wisconsin played earlier the season and that ended up with a win for the Blue Devils, who beat Wisconsin when they were ranked number two. Duke shot over 60 percent in that game and now these two teams will face off for the NCAA title.
The NCAA likely wanted the undefeated Wildcats to take on Duke, but this is also a prime matchup and has Frank Kaminsky and Sam Dekker coming in brimming with confidence. Kaminsky and Dekker both played well against Kentucky and now the two could be the key for the Badgers against Duke. Kaminsky and Okafor are two of the best players in the nation and the matchup between those two should be very interesting to watch.
Wisconsin comes in after winning against Kentucky and that makes this run very impressive and they now have the chance to finish it off on Monday night. The Badgers come in after winning the first two games of the tournament against Coastal Carolina and Oregon, while North Carolina and Arizona were next before the team won against Kentucky. Beating a number one seed would make this a fantastic run for Wisconsin and now two number one seeds will match up for the final.
Duke already won against Wisconsin this season and while that game was in December, both teams are mostly the same as they were then. Duke has tailed off a bit offensively, but Okafor and Quinn Cook hav been impressive and now they will have to stop Kaminsky. Duke comes in after going 15-3 in the ACC during the season and that put them head to head with some tough teams and now they will battle the Badgers.
