The rivalry between Duke and North Carolina is one that has gone on for years, and is commonly referred to as the greatest in college basketball. Some even claim that it’s the best rivalry among college athletics, and others go so far as to tout it as the best in all of sports.
And the generations-long history between the two schools means different things to different people.
For some, it’s just good TV on a Thursday night. And for others, it’s a healthy rivalry among coworkers, neighbors or relatives that lends itself to office banter or a heated exchange at Sunday dinner.
