Duke vs. North Carolina

I am a huge fan of college basketball and my favorite team is Duke University. Tonight is one of the greatest nights of the basketball season. It is Duke vs. North Carolina, the best rivalry in sports. As one announcer put it "Duke and North Carolina are separated by 7 miles and a shade of blue". That refers to the fact that the schools are only 7 miles apart and Duke's primary color is Duke Blue (a darker blue) and North Carolina's is Carolina blue (a baby blue). Also, tonight's game is at Cameron Indoor Stadium, the greatest venue in college basketball. It doesn't get any better then this.

So, needless to say, tonight at 9:00 pm I will be glued to my t.v. rooting on Coach K and The Duke Blue Devils. Go Duke!

Good to know. I'll be leaving you alone so you can watch this. :)

It should be a great game. Both teams have looked good and not so good at times this season. According to SportsCenter it's going to come down to whoever has more heart.

I have been checking out GoDuke.com all day. It is the Duke sports website. It has been posting articles and videos throughout the day on the Duke/North Carolina rivalry. So now, I am more pumped then ever to watch the game. Go Duke!
