Stakes couldn't be higher on Tobacco Road
Posted Mar 5, 2011
I rooted for both to win Wednesday. They both did. So now we're all set for No. 4 Duke vs. No. 13 North Carolina at the Dean Smith Center. The Blue Devils are 27-3 overall, 13-2 in the ACC. The Tar Heels are 23-6 overall, 13-2 in the ACC. In other words, Saturday night's game will determine the outright ACC champion. Yes, I'll be there.
