The UNLV Runnin’ Rebels and the Duke Blue Devils meet again on Saturday for the first time in 25 years.
The two sides have some history — good and bad for both.
The last meeting, on Mar. 30, 1991, saw the Rebels get upset 79-77 by Duke in the 1991 national semifinals and Duke advancing to the National Championship game. Duke went on to beat Kansas 72-65 and become National Champions for the first time.
A year before, on April 2, 1990, the Blue Devils and Rebels saw a much different ending — the No. 1 seeded Rebels beat the No.
