#689 - How To Beat Carolina

Duke Basketball Roundup

It’s time. The big game is upon us and we preview Duke’s matchup with North Carolina on Episode 689!

UNC has struggled this season against a loaded schedule, one of the best of the country. Donald and Jason get into who UNC has played and how they’ve struggled in very close games. They then break down the offense and defense, going deep to tell you about what makes UNC successful and where Duke could have an advantage. They have some players that are dangerous, but they’ve struggled this year with the combinations on the court and that has created inconsistency. We then get into the things to watch, including who matches up with Cooper Flagg, rebounding, and embracing the huge moment that this rivalry provides.

After the break, Duke Football got their 2025 schedule, and it’s an interesting one! We discuss the schedule quickly to tell you which games to circle and how Duke could be set up for a decent run if they can make it through a couple of barriers.
