UNC 76 Duke 72

It was a movie we've seen before but with a different ending. UNC fends off a Duke rally for a 76-72 win and an ACC Regular Season title.

In many ways the game started like it did at Duke in 2012. UNC seized control early thanks to dominance of the offensive glass and some solid play from Kennedy Meeks. Unlike the first game, UNC was able to get the lead to double digits going up by 11 on a three point play from Justin Jackson. The sophomore got a run out for a dunk to make it 22-11 midway through the half.
