Duke beats Texas Tech 78-73 to ship Coach Okay to Elite 8

SAN FRANCISCO — Mike Krzyzewski has spent greater than 4 many years at Duke telling his gamers what to do, with championship-level effects.

With his Hall of Fame profession at risk of coming to an finish, Krzyzewski let his gamers dictate the game-closing defensive process of switching from an uncharacteristic zone protection into Duke’s well-known man-to-man.

The key defensive stops and two overdue baskets via Jeremy Roach moved Krzyzewski inside one win of his record-setting thirteenth commute to the Final Four in his farewell season with a 78-73 win over Texas Tech on Thursday night time.
