Duke: The Blue Devils showed they are still a formidable team even without their three injured freshmen -- Harry Giles, Jayson Tatum and Marques Bolden -- and junior Sean Obi. Krzyzewski said Allen played at about 50 percent of his ability after the right foot injury he suffered in last week's loss to Kansas; Jeter played despite leaving the Penn State game, and Jefferson played hurt this weekend.

"When we're healthy we're going to have a lot of good players," Krzyzewski said. "Right now, we have a lot fewer."
