Avast, ye scurvy dogs! 'Tis a merry tale I tell ye! The lads Armando Bacot and RJ Davis, from North Carolina, did grace ESPN's "College Gameday" this fine Saturday. They shared the tale of their most "satisfying" victory o'er Duke in the final season of Captain Krzyzewski. Arr, 'twas a jolly good time, indeed!
The Duke vs. North Carolina basketball rivalry is being hyped up as a particularly significant event in college basketball. This will be the 261st time the two teams face off, and the 49th time they meet as top-10 opponents. Two North Carolina seniors, Armando Bacot and RJ Davis, are no strangers to the rivalry, having been part of the team that defeated Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski in his final game before retirement. When asked which victory they cherished the most, Davis chose the win in Krzyzewski's last game, while Bacot mentioned the victory at Duke's home stadium, seeing the disappointment on the faces of former Duke players. The upcoming game between the two teams will have significant implications for the ACC race, as North Carolina aims to avoid a second straight loss and Duke seeks revenge for a previous defeat. The Tar Heels will need to contain Duke's Kyle Filipowski, who is a major offensive threat with his ability to handle the ball and make plays. The game is eagerly anticipated by fans and will take place at 6:30 p.m. ET on Saturday.
