Keys to victory: As uptempo as Maryland wants the game, Duke wants an opposite pace. The Blue Devils believe if the tempo gets too fast, they’re in trouble. The Blue Devils have had problems with turnovers. Duke averaged 18.5 turnovers and had 27 in their NCAA opener against Albany. The Blue Devils must win with defense. Opponents have averaged just 58.8 points. Duke needs to get off to a fast start.
