One of college basketball's bluebloods is back in the Final Four.

Led by Cooper Flagg, they had no trouble against Mount Saint Mary's and Baylor in the first weekend, and the offense erupted against Arizona on Thursday before beating the Crimson Tide in the Elite Eight.

Duke is no stranger to the Final Four, and this year's appearance adds to its decorated history as it tries to add another national championship. Here's what to know about Duke's Final Four history:
