Duke’s talent was ultimately too much to overcome on Sunday in a high-profile NCAA men’s tournament game that saw the Blue Devils secure an 85-76 victory to keep Mike Krzyzewski’s coaching career alive.
Duke fought off a barrage of Michigan State 3-pointers and a late Spartans rally to secure Krzyzewski’s 1,200th career victory, 26th Sweet 16 and one last win over his friend and rival Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo.

The couple had just moved from Oklahoma to Durham, N.C., not far from where Jamie’s parents lived. On this night, for the first time, her parents were coming over for dinner.
Her husband, Chris, was nervous. He gets along well with his father-in-law, but this wasn’t just pasta night with the family. It was an important rite of passage, as it is for any young couple, something of a graduation into adulthood. And Jamie’s dad is a noted perfectionist and alpha who usually gets his way.
