The Duke Blue Devils are back in the Sweet 16, and we analyze what has happened in the NCAA Tournament to date. Jordan Brenner of The Athletic and The Underdogs Podcast rejoins the show to help us understand everything on Episode 813!

With Jason out, Donald and Jordan first start with Duke and what they’ve done thus far to get to the East Regional in DC. He gives us his take on where they’ve succeeded, where some of the struggles have been, and what the possible return of Caleb Foster and the improved health of Pat Ngongba does to the roster. We also talk about what they need to do to get past St. John’s and keep dancing in the tournament.

We also look at the NCAA Tournament as a whole to note that Cinderella is wearing a Power 5 dress this year. We discuss why so many upset bids fell short and if there are any surprises left in a tournament that has nothing but power conference teams remaining.
