When you think about it, biggest rivalry in sports, coach K’s last hurrah. Think about the series, Duke wins 50 games, Carolina has won 49, think about that gap, it’s so close. The fact that North Carolina ruined Coach K’s senior night, his last game ever at Cameron Indoor Stadium. North Carolina came in, and they won, they celebrated on the court.“
