Dook may very well come back and win this game but Dooks D is matador at best!
Lots of individual showcasing going on!

Idk, is there anyone to hate? Part of what made dook so easy to bust on was because they had these polarizing, annoying, really good college basketball players- mostly white. Laettner, Hurley, Parks, Wojo, Dunleavy, Redick, battier, Paulus, Scheyer, Singler, the Plumlees, etc.
Grayson Allen is easily the most hatable in my opinion. But ever since they went all in on the OAD route, their players just aren’t as douchey as they used to be. Austin Rivers was the only one I really couldn’t stand who was OAD. Marvin Bagley may play for the wrong shade of blue, but there’s nothing in his character that makes me hate him.
My younger brother was born and raised in Kentucky, so he's a big Wildcat fan. We make it work, lol. Anyway, I've gotten to watch a couple UK games with him this season and he said it's the least likable team he can remember. Partly because of their scattered play and partly because he's tired of the OAD philosophy and how it changes the character of the team every single season. Makes it hard to get invested in (read: care about) the team year in and year out.
Knox always came off as a sneaky little egotist after he played everyone last year. Did he mention anyone by name?
Allen gets away with a blatant foul and dook is within 2 points.
Miami has blown a 13 point lead in a few minutes
Miami has blown a 13 point lead in a few minutes
Not really, although I did point out to him that Knox looks like a mini-Kennedy Meeks.
dook zone has really bothered the Canes. Gonna need some good possessions down the stretch.
This is exactly why I don't watch dook games.
So glad I don't waste my time watching those douche-waters.... it pisses me off when they come back and win a game they should lose.
It was much better when I didn’t even know they were playing and saw they had lost to State.
I don't mind watching them. When they lose, it's worth it. Miami really folded and laid down big-time. Larranega should be ashamed.
The white ones.
Okay, listed below, I'm just listing the first team I see that we swept. Doesn't necessarily mean we only swept one team that season. Also, seasons are listed by the year in which they finish, i.e. the spring portion. **BTW** I don't know if I specified this, but the streak is during the regular season only. ACC Tourney games don't count.
2017: Pittsburgh
2016: State (also noticed BC)
2015: Georgia Tech
2014: State
2013: Maryland (lulz at Maryland in the B1G now)
2012: Virginia
2011: Clemson (also noticed State)
2010: State (this was the Larry Drew year where we missed the tourney. If we hadn't swept Moo, streak would've ended. We lost to EVERYBODY. Oh and it was my first year at Carolina as a student. Yay, lol)
2009: Virginia, Miami, State, AND Duke... plus the natty. Man what a dominant effing year that was. 34-4
2008: Virginia Tech, Moo.... damn that Kansas loss in the Final Four still blows. 36-3 on the year.
2007: Wake Forest
2006: State, also noticed Maryland
2005: Clemson, also noticed State
2004: State.... I think we only swept State this year, keeping the streak alive. This was Roy's first year... 19-11
2003: Florida State.... this one made me nervous. I thought the streak ended, but then saw FSU. Doherty's last year. 19-16
2002: Clemson... the infamous 8-20 year. We beat Clemson twice, FSU once, and basically no one else.
2001: GT (also noticed Maryland)
2000: State (also noticed Clemson) -- Guthridge's final season. Lost to Florida in Final Four
1999: Wake (also noticed FSU and Virginia) -- the infamous Weber State year.
1998: GT (also noticed Virginia) -- lost to Rick Majerus and Utah in the Final Four. Thanks George Karl -_-
1997: State (also noticed Virginia) -- Dean Smith's last season
1996: Duke (also noticed Clemson)
1995: Florida State (lost to Arkansas in Final Four)
Okay, I'm gonna stop it here because I'm pretty sure it's intact. If I get bored, I'll continue to confirm it in the coming days. If anyone wants to help confirm this, go here and scroll down and you can access the schedule/results for every UNC hoops season.
I'm glad Carter for WVU went ahead and shaved this whole head, now he don't look like a 71 year old man!
Still kinda looks like a 71 year old man...
Good work THN.
So we even swept Clemson during 8-20; we best not lose to them tomorrow.
Just noticed in 1989-90 season it was a sweep of Dook that kept it intact
Dean really knew how to beat them. I miss that.
For this season, here's who we play home and home in conference play:
Notre Dame*
Clemson
NC State
Duke
Obviously, we're halfway there against ND and we play Clemson tomorrow night. Conference expansion makes our chance each year of extending the streak fairly tenuous, especially when one of the four teams is always Duke. I'm definitely proud of the streak, though, even if it ends this year. That's a phenomenal streak.
haha don't get me started.... me and @gunslingerdick will have to debate it all over again.
Per Wikipedia- I assume it's verified...
Dean Smith was 59–35 vs. Duke and 24–14 vs. Krzyzewski, winning 8 of the last 9 matchups before retiring in 1997.
Did you see where a WVU player threw a punch at a Texas Tech fan during the court storming on Saturday?
And that right there is why you'll never convince me K is a better coach than Dean. Never.
