For UNC to win

Posted Feb 11, 2009
Roy Williams knows that for the Tar Heels to win their fourth straight in Cameron, they'll need exceptional focus in one of the ACC's toughest gyms, unrelenting defense and an all-around effort that makes Duke work the whole game. A win would give Tyler Hansbrough and North Carolina's four other seniors a career sweep at Duke. "I don't want to talk about it now because is hasn't happened," Hansbrough said. "We'll see what happens, then we'll talk about it." (Winston-Salem Journal)
