Well the die is cast and there’s no way to get around it: Duke and UNC will meet in the NCAA tournament for the first time, and in the Final Four no less.
It’s not the first time it could have happened of course. Both teams were in the Final Four in 1991 but UNC lost to Kansas while Duke beat UNLV.
The situation at the Hoosier Dome was, frankly, a bit frightening: the UNC fans went in one door while Duke went in another just down the way and they were taunting each other. It was extremely intense - and they didn't even play each other.
