Preview: UNC vs #5 Duke

Posted Feb 20, 2014
One potential shift in the outlook of this game stems from the play of Kennedy Meeks against FSU on Monday. Meeks became the first Tar Heel since Sean May in the 2005 NCAA Championship game to score over 20 points on 90% shooting. Given Meeks' inconsistency this season, it isn't fair to expect that kind of effort versus Duke. However confidence can be a vital ingredient. (Tar Heel Blog)
