I expected Duke to lose. That was a ton of pressure put on those kids to deliver. 

This is a rivalry, the best in college basketball and arguably the best in all sports.  You go to Duke or UNC to play in this game.  This game is pure pressure.

Duke wasn't acting much like they were under pressure.  They dominated stretches of the game however, UNC was resilient each time Duke punched Carolina Punched back. 

Everyone wants to say Duke played poorly but Carolina outlasted them and outplayed them down the stretch.  Carolina scored 55 points in the 2nd half.  Duke was outplayed and out coached. 

Duke was the #4 team in the country and Saturday the better team won.

Duke started out tight from the nerves. They tightened up again when Carolina took the lead late. K just never recognized it. He left them hung out there to dry. He also never adjusted to UNC changing the way they played Banchero. They had no answer for him isolating early on but once they softened to avoid giving up the drive and to give up the shot Banchero proved unable to score when he couldn't get to the rim. Forcing him to settle for pull ups led to a lot of missed shots and ultimately Carolina rebounds.

The most beautiful thing about that loss for duke is that it was a really poor night of coaching for K.

Bet @4Corners is still passed out

I don't pay much attention to college basketball but I caught the second half because it was a game of historic importance.  K looked like he wanted to kill his entire team and then himself during that ceremony.

Also holy poo imagine camping out for weeks and/or dropping a down payment on a house just to watch that.

Ha! I was so jacked up it took me a while to get to bed. I’m not a drinker. I almost went out and did some yard work to burn off some of the excitement. 
 

This W was one of the biggest wins in team history - and arguably the biggest win in regular season history of the program. They absolutely ruined the party in front of all the entire brotherho….I mean Semesterhood and you could tell Mike did not want to be there for little after party that felt more like a funeral than a celebration.

I just can't for the life of me understand what Hubert is trying to run on offense. His offense seems completely predicated on outside jumpers falling and is setup by either isolation dribble attacks or the same tired three man top of the key weave. Our starting guards were a combined 5-27 from the field and 3-17 from three to score 20 very inefficient points combined. Meanwhile, our lone true post player and ACC POY runner-up was 9-10 for 19 incredibly efficient points.

Our approach seems entirely backasswards.

Heels didn't want none.  They knew what was coming.  Same with all their whiny ass fans calling in the radio saying they didn't want to play Duke again. 

LOL…you mean that team we spanked by double digits on their home floor?  GTFOH

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
