Duke, UNC 'play like we're No. 1 and No. 2 in the country'

Posted Feb 10, 2010
Tonight at the Smith Center, college basketball's most famous rivalry will write its latest chapter when No. 8 Duke takes on No. 10 North Carolina. Never mind that Duke is No. 8 in the country and UNC is No. 10 in the conference. "When we play against Carolina, both teams' records are thrown out the window," Duke senior Lance Thomas said. "This game is different than any game we play all year." (Durham Herald-Sun)
