Unbeaten Teams Meet at Cameron Indoor Stadium

Army takes on its first ranked opponent in head coach Zach Spiker's tenure and looks for its sixth consecutive win to open the 2014-15 season when it challenges No. 4 Duke at Cameron Indoor Stadium on Sunday at noon. The game will air to a national television audience on ESPN3 and Watch ESPN and can be heard on the Army Sports Network.
The Black Knights enter the game after posting their largest victory of the season, an 80-54 defeat of Binghamton on Nov. 25. Kyle Wilson was the lone Army player to score in double figures as he matched his season high with 25 points. Eight different Army players contributed at least five points in the team's largest victory since beating Rosemont 90-48 on Dec. 22, 2012.
Army is 5-0 to start the season for the first time since the 1976-77 campaign under Mike Krzyzewski. The five-game winning streak matches the longest stretch of consecutive wins under Spiker.
Army has never played an opponent ranked in the AP Top-25 Poll in Zach Spiker's six seasons at West Point. The last time the Black Knights played a ranked opponent was Dec. 21, 2006, when they fell to No. 20 Notre Dame 88-47. The last time Army met a top-five team was Nov. 29, 2005 when it lost to No. 3 Connecticut 68-54.
Wilson's 25-point effort gave him 1,080 points for his career and moved him into 24th all-time in Academy history ahead of Darryle Kouns (1,067) and Derrick Canada (1,071). Wilson is averaging 21.4 points per game, which leads the Patriot League and ranks 16th in the nation through all games played Nov. 27.
The Black Knights have used the same starting lineup in all four games this season with Cox, Wilson, Plomb, Larry Toomey and Kevin Ferguson on the floor first.

Army enters the weekend as one of 24 Division I teams with at least five victories and no losses.
Army received 41 votes in the CollegeInsider.com Men's Mid-Major Top-25 Poll. The poll is announced each Monday.
A WIN OVER DUKE WOULD ...
Mark Army's first 6-0 start since the 1976-77 campaign. That year, Army started 7-0 under second-year head coach Mike Krzyzewski when the team was captained by Army Sports Hall of Famer Gary Winton.
Be Army's first win over a nationally ranked team under Zach Spiker.
Be the first time Army has ever opened the season with six straight wins versus current Division I opponents.
Give Zach Spiker his 74rd career victory, which would move him past Mike Krzyzewski into fourth place in Academy history.
Be Army's first win over Duke in Durham, N.C. and first overall against the Blue Devils since Feb. 4, 1939.
Keep Army as the lone Patriot League team without a loss.
