With the No. 1 recruiting class in the nation, the Blue Devils will be must-watch TV next season and ESPN's ACC Big Monday lineup—released this afternoon—secured their slot in the primetime.
Duke will make two appearances on ESPN's Big Monday during the 2014-15 campaign, with a Jan. 19 home contest against Pittsburgh and a Feb. 9 away contest Florida State making up this year's Big Monday contests.
The Blue Devils went 2-0 in Big Monday contests last season, posting victories against Virginia and Pittsburgh. Each Big Monday game is slotted for 7 p.m. tipoff and will be televised by ESPN. Only North Carolina and Virginia are set to appear more often than the Blue Devils, with both squads scheduled for three appearances.
