Tar Heels' recipe for success not the same at Duke Saturday

Posted Mar 9, 2014
UNC beat Duke last month at the Smith Center by using its size advantage to win the rebounding battle and throwing a mix of defenses that limited the best 3-point shooting team in the ACC to 23 percent from behind the arc. Neither of those things happened at Cameron Indoor Stadium on Saturday, which is how a Tar Heel team that shot 60 percent lost 93-81. (Durham Herald-Sun)
