Too Much of the Tar Heels

Posted Feb 12, 2009
Many questioned which Duke team would take the floor Wednesday night: The one that struggled mightily to score, or the one capable of inspired second-half comebacks. The answer, unfortunately for the Blue Devils, was a little bit of both. At times during the first half, Duke seemed like it couldn't miss. But when the Tar Heels pushed back in the second half, Duke simply couldn't regain any sign of its offensive rhythm. (Duke Chronicle)
