    Duke vs. Texas
    Atlanta Region title game, Saturday.

    Last meeting: No. 1 Duke overwhelmed No. 2 Texas 97-66 on Dec. 10, one of the most lopsided games ever between the country's two top-ranked teams.

    What's different: As we said, Texas has shifted Gibson off the ball, which will help against Duke's defensive pressure. And Texas power forward Brad Buckman was injured in the first half of that game. He's healthy now.

    What has to come first: Duke has to get past LSU in the Sweet 16, and Texas has to beat West Virginia.

    Bottom line: LSU's frontcourt will be too much for Duke, which means Texas won't get its shot at revenge. That's good news for Texas: The Longhorns can't beat Duke. But they can beat LSU.
