Devils size up Heels

Posted Feb 10, 2010
For the first time in years, it might not be so easy for UNC to push Duke around tonight. After years of getting manhandled by bigger, stronger UNC teams, the eighth-ranked Blue Devils finally bring some height and girth to college basketball's most celebrated rivalry as the teams meet at 9 p.m. today in Chapel Hill. North Carolina senior forward Deon Thompson said the Blue Devils are more formidable on the front line. (Raleigh News & Observer)
