UNC not taking Duke lightly, despite winning their last seven contests

Posted Nov 21, 2011
Duke has won just three games this season, and has lost seven straight to rival North Carolina. But UNC interim coach Everett Withers isn't taking any comfort in either of those statistics as the Tar Heels (6-5, 2-5 ACC) prepare to meet Duke (3-8, 1-6) on Saturday in the regular-season finale for both teams in Chapel Hill. "They are eight miles away and it's a rivalry,'' Withers said Monday. (Fayetteville Observer)
