Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC vs. Duke

Posted Feb 5, 2022
Nothing went right, Duke played very well, and it was a tough night at the Smith Center. UNC got outplayed at the start of the first half and the start of the second half, and that was too big a hole to get out of. A 10-0 Duke run to start the second half was decisive. As you might have suspected, Duke is a bad matchup for this North Carolina basketball team. (GoHeels.com)
