Virginia hasn’t won two regular-season games in the same season against Duke since Duke’s lost 1995 season.
They still haven’t. Duke got a huge second half from A.J. Griffin and standout performances from Jeremy Roach, Trevor Keels and Mark Williams to defeat Virginia 65-61 in Charlottesville Wednesday night, gaining a measure of payback for that last-second loss in Cameron earlier this season.
More importantly than revenge, Duke’s fifth straight win leaves them still in control of the ACC regular-season race at 14-3, 23-4 overall.
Of course we all knew Duke and Virginia would come down to final seconds.
