Josh, Dustin, and Raul react to Duke's 76-67 win over Florida State. They talk about Jared McCain's offensive explosion. How was he able to take and make so many threes? They also highlight some other positive performances: 17 points from Jeremy Roach; steady ball-handling from Caleb Foster; solid defense from Mark Mitchell; and bench energy from Jaylen Blakes and Sean Stewart. Then they address some negatives: the recent trend of increasing turnovers as well as a poor showing from Kyle Filipowski. Are either something to be worried about going forward?

Next, they turn their attention to the bracket reveal from the NCAA selection committee. They discuss Duke's draw as a potential 3-seed were the season to end today. They also talk about the NET rating system, and share their philosophical and practical gripes with the system as a whole.

Lastly, they turn their attention to Duke's Wednesday matchup with Miami. What are some areas of concern and what does Duke need to do well to win?
