What Was the World Like the Last Time UNC and Duke Were Unranked?

Posted Feb 5, 2021
For the first time since February 27, 1960, both Carolina and Duke enter the game unranked in the AP Top 25. The game will snap a 153-game streak of at least one team being ranked. Dean Smith was an assistant coach on that UNC team. The Tar Heels won the game, 75-50, led by Lee Shaffer’s 26 points. Doug Moe added 19. Freshmen weren't eligible. (All Tar Heels)
