Duke University's men's basketball team lost to the University of Arkansas 80-75 in the ACC/SEC Challenge on Wednesday night. The loss was Duke's first of the season, and it came against a Razorbacks team that is ranked No. 10 in the country.

Duke struggled to shoot the ball from the field, making just 35.8% of its shots. The Blue Devils also had trouble defending Arkansas, giving up 49.1% shooting from the field and 40.9% shooting from three-point range.

The loss to Arkansas is a setback for Duke, but the Blue Devils still have plenty of time to turn things around. They have a strong backcourt led by Jeremy Roach and Tyrese Proctor, and they have a lot of young talent who are still developing.

However, if Duke wants to be a contender in the NCAA Tournament, they will need to figure out how to beat out-of-conference opponents. They have struggled against out-of-conference teams in recent years, and they will need to find a way to win those games if they want to make a deep run in the tournament.
