Tickets wanted, please

First, let me give you my history as a Duke fan.
I wasn't too big of a sports fan growing up, so I don't recall really watching a basketball game until the age of 10. That game was the Duke-Arizona 2001 title game. And my reasoning for rooting for Duke during that game? My favorite color was blue.
Needless to say, my fandom has grown from this. I rooted for them every season since. Living in Indiana, being a Duke fan was rough, to say the least. When they nearly lost to IU in the Big-Ten challenge about 5 years ago, I heard about it. When they lost in the first round to VCU, I definitely heard about it. And last year when they battled Butler, who's starting center (Matt Howard) is from my home town, I absolutely heard it when I rooted for Duke.
I say all of this in hopes of some help. The closest I've come to seeing Duke play was the Final Four practice last year. My roommate and I were planning a trip during our winter break to Durham if we could get tickets to a Duke game. When I searched for tickets online, nothing was cheaper than 100 dollars a ticket. I don't want to spend that much.
I'm hoping that one of you guys have spare tickets or know of a way I can get cheaper tickets for any of the Elon, UAB, or Miami games. If so, it would be incredibly appreciated.
Thanks
