It Was Twenty Years Ago Today...

It’s been goin in and out of style....but guaranteed to raise a smile. So let us (re)introduce to you...the act you’ve known for all these years...Duke’s Miracle Minute finish in Cole!

Okay, enough Beatles.

Believe it or not, it really has been twenty years since Duke’s insanely great comeback at Maryland. We’ve linked to the comeback portion previously but today, in honor of the anniversary, and to depress Maryland fans of a certain age, here’s the entire game.

You’ll soon see that, for most of the game, Maryland was the better team. But Duke pushed back late, largely because Maryland fans started to chant “over-rated” prematurely, which irritated Duke great Jason Williams, who then scored five points in five seconds, cutting the lead in half with 48.
