Posted Sep 25, 2018
1. North Carolina vs. Duke: College basketball’s fiercest rivalry pits schools located just 20 minutes apart against each other. The Tar Heels and Blue Devils go back to 1920, when UNC won 36–25 in Chapel Hill. UNC dominated the early days, winning 16 in a row from 1921 to 1928. Since then the rivalry has been on more even ground, with UNC leading all-time 137–111.
