Following the win, the NCAA sent a five-word message to the Blue Devils about getting back to the Final Four on their NCAA March Madness account. "WELCOME BACK TO THE #MFINALFOUR," the post read. Some fans chimed in on the NCAA's post to Duke as well in the comments section.

An old basketball saying goes, “Live by the 3, die by the 3.” BYU’s 113-88 loss to No. 2 seed Alabama in Thursday’s Sweet 16 matchup was the perfect example of that idiom, because the Cougars couldn’t make ’em or defend ’em and that killed their March Madness dreams.

For the 18th time in program history and the first time under head coach Jon Scheyer, the top-seeded Duke Blue Devils will play in the Final Four after they ousted No. 2 Alabama on Saturday night.
