VOLUME 5: Decades of Domination
The last two full decades of the Duke-Carolina rivalry went back and forth like high-stakes ping-pong with the Blue Bloods trading haymakers and counter punches. Consider this:
Between 1990 and 2010, the Blue Devils reached eight more Final Fours and brought four national championships back to Durham under Mike Krzyzewski, who has delivered all four of the school’s NCAA titles in men’s basketball.
During that span, the Tar Heels of coaches Dean Smith, Bill Guthridge and Roy Williams went to nine Final Fours and captured three more NCAA titles, giving the school a record 17 Final Four appearances and six total national championships (including one by vote of the Helms Foundation in 1924).
The Blue Blood rivalry was at its most vitriolic point in history during the late 1980s and early 1990s, when the programs warred in recruiting as well as on the court. Players like Christian Laettner, Bobby Hurley, Grant Hill and Eric Montross were wooed by both schools and, whichever they chose, took that competition to the court for their college years.
In historic 1991, both Duke and Carolina made the Final Four for the first time and could have been headed for a national championship game that both programs really did not want because it would be the ultimate ones-up for the winner. There was zero love loss during the 1991 regular season, when Duke won two close games and an angry Carolina blew the surly Blue Devils out of the Charlotte Coliseum to win the ACC Tournament championship.
After blasting Duke in 1991 ACC Tournament Championship game, Carolina (and Hubert Davis) celebrate in closing seconds before seniors Pete Chilcutt, King Rice and Rick Fox hoist trophy.
