Last night, both UNC and Duke opened up 2024 ACC games with games against Pittsburgh and Syracuse. Things looked slightly different last night as legends Mike Krzyzewski and Jimmy Boeheim retired from college basketball, and Jon Scheyer and Adrian Autry led their respective teams. Hubert Davis meets up with the Blue-blooded Capel brothers on the other side of town. If you don't know, both Capel brothers are from North Carolina; one played at Duke, and the other at Carolina. At the night's end, it easily defeated Pitt with a score of 70 -57, and Duke cruised to an 86- 66 victory over Syracuse.

The state of UNC - after playing six games in two weeks, UNC is in the middle of a 10-day break as the Tar Heels are set to go to Atlanta this weekend to take on Kentucky. This break allows us to talk about where UNC is after playing their first nine games of the season, leaving them with a 7-2 record.

The Blue Devils are now 6-3 with a win against UNC Charlotte and back-to-back losses to Arkansaw and Georgia Tech. During their nine-game stretch, the Blue Devils looked disjointed, and they have an ankle injury to Tyrese Proctor. Duke rebounded to beat Hofstra, but will they be ready to battle Baylor on December 20th? As I mentioned during the last show, another loss will make this Duke team the first to have four losses before Christmas in the previous 41 years of basketball.

A lot has happened since Hassan and Connor last recorded on the Blue Blood Rivalry podcast. UNC has been in a downward spiral and sits at 16-11 overall and 8-8 in the ACC. Duke has fared slightly better, and they sit at 20-8 overall and 11-6 in the ACC. UNC has lost its last two games and will likely miss the tournament without a seismic shift in their play. Carolina will have to win at least 3 of their four remaining games, and the Duke game could decide if they make it into the NCAA Tournament. Meanwhile, Duke won their last three but lost to Virginia with a controversial call at the end of the game. The Blue Devils are in an excellent position to make the tournament and make noise in the ACC tournament.

We are going to talk about it all in our season wrap-up.
