The Blue Devils are 3-0 in their all-time series against the Patriots, with the most recent meeting coming in December 2006, a 69-53 Duke win. All three matchups have taken place in Durham.

Last season, in the first year with Tony Skinn at the helm in Fairfax, Va., George Mason finished 20-12 overall and tied for seventh in the Atlantic 10 standings with a 9-9 record in conference play.
