After Saturday’s loss in Chapel Hill, Duke is off to Pitt to take the measure of Jeff Capel’s Panthers. And that’s an interesting team. There’s no question that at 9-15, Pitt is struggling. They’ve only won twice since December 30th, with a solid win over Georgia Tech, 89-66, and an 80-76 overtime win over Wake […]

There’s plenty of time left in the 2026 season, plenty of testing to be done and proving to be achieved. But enough games have been played, tests met, to offer a fairly clear gauge of the prowess of this year’s Duke team. Frankly, despite their gaudy record and No.4 spot in the AP poll, at […]

With Duke and UConn falling, the opportunity was there for the Illini on Saturday night to put pressure on the top seed line. A win probably wouldn’t have moved the Illini up, but it would have made the margin very thin between themselves and UConn, in particular. Unfortunately, everything seemed to go wrong as it […]

UNC looked dead in the water for much of Saturday night’s game against Duke. They started slow and seemingly couldn’t find their way over the hump by getting enough stops on the defensive end once their shots started to fall. The Tar Heels led for just 0.4 seconds of the game, but what a second […]

For Game Day, we thought we’d feature arguably the greatest buzzer beater for Duke in the history of the Duke-UNC thang. Candidates include Gene Banks’ 1981 thriller and the double buzzer beaters by Tre Jones and Wendell Moore, but Austin Rivers’ buzzer beater just had…so much…swagger. When UNC misses, Miles Plumlee gets the rebound and […]

One of the better Duke-UNC games, at least from Duke’s point of view, came on February 28th, 1998, when Carolina visited Cameron. UNC was ranked #3 and Duke #1, but the Tar Heels took a 12-point lead into halftime before stretching it out to 17 after the break. But Duke wasn’t giving up. It had […]
