Duke vs. Wisconsin: Game time, channel and 5 stats that impress
The 2015 NCAA tournament's championship game is today, and unlike Saturday's Final Four games that also featured homer broadcasts on TNT and truTV, you have only two options to watch Duke vs. Wisconsin game -- on CBS (8:30 p.m. ET pregame show, 9:18 p.m. ET tip) or via March Madness live online. CBS' broadcast team includes Jim Nantz, Bill Raftery, Grant Hill and Tracy Wolfson.
The Blue Devils and Badgers met once already this season, with coach Mike Krzyzewski's team beating Bo Ryan's squad 80-70 on Dec. 3 in Madison.
"It was a great test and a really good Duke team. Just learn from it," Badgers guard Traevon Jackson said after that game, "and the biggest thing is just make sure it doesn't happen again."
Well, Wisconsin has a chance to right that wrong. Or Duke has the chance to show again that its might is right.
NOTABLE STATS
1. Duke has three players (Jahlil Okafor, Justise Winslow, Quinn Cook) averaging at least 15 points during the NCAA tournament.
2. Wisconsin has two players (Sam Dekker, Frank Kaminsky) averaging over 20 points during the tournament.
3. Krzyzewski is going for his fifth national title with Duke, and Badgers coach Bo Ryan is chasing his fifth, too. The difference is that Ryan's first four came at the Division III Wisconsin-Platteville.
4. This game will feature a Badgers team averaging nearly 80 points per game during the tournament vs. a Blue Devils team that's held opponents to just 55 points per game. Which strength wins out?
5. When Wisconsin last won the national title in 1941, Bo Ryan wasn't even born yet. Ryan was born in 1947.
