The Battle of the Blues, 2019 Edition, kicks off Wednesday night when top-ranked Duke hosts eighth-ranked North Carolina.
This will be the 46th time the two thoroughbreds have met with both teams ranked in the AP top-10, the 83rd when both teams were ranked in the top-25.
North Carolina leads the overall series 137-111, much of that advantage built up in the 1920s, when North Carolina took basketball seriously and Trinity/Duke did not.
Mike Krzyzewski is 46-42 against North Carolina, after starting 1-8.
What does Duke need to do to make it 47-42 tomorrow night?
