UNC vs. Duke: Three Things to Watch

March Madness is already here in Chapel Hill as the Tar Heels remain in tournament mode. A loss against Virginia, Florida State, or now Duke could spell doom for Carolina’s at-large bid chances, so Hubert Davis and crew need a tournament mentality as they look to avenge the loss to Duke back in February.

Can it be done? Duke has been hot lately, with their only losses being a questionable one at Virginia and a surprising annihilation at Miami. They are healthy and clicking. In Durham, the Blue Devils managed to get Armando Bacot in foul trouble and generally frustrated him with a mix of double/triple-teaming and Dereck Lively playing defense like an absolute maniac.
