‘There’s nothing to joke about.’ Duke-UNC football rivalry is a big deal, too.

Posted Aug 12, 2018
The UNC-Duke rivalry started in 1888. You might argue a rivalry is moot when one team inexorably beats the other. Yet, during a Tar Heel run of 21 wins in 22 seasons from 1990 through 2011, the meetings retained their cachet for an ever-dwindling core group. Since David Cutcliffe led the Blue Devils to four wins in the last six encounters, the drama has revived the series. (Durham Herald-Sun)
