Duke vs North Carolina NCAAB

[UNHWildCats]

ESPN is going all out for the broadcast of this game. The game will be shown on ESPN, while ESPN2 will broadcast what there calling "above the rim" vantage point of the game. And as if 2 channels wasn't enough ESPNU will be broadcasting the same game from the viewpoint of the Duke student section.

So all you hoop fans, better take your TV from your bedroom and your sons bedroom and set them side by side by side and get ready.

Every single ESPN entity will provide special coverage during the game.

Seems a lil overkill if you ask me, now if they did it for some I AA Football i'd be all for it.

Duke-UNC...one of the greatest college b-ball rivalries ever. In recent years, Maryland was Duke's nemesis and they had some epic games. UNC has since replaced Maryland (because they suck this year) as Duke's thorn in the side...not to mention FSU...I'll be watching this game. The atmosphere between these two is like no other. :nod:

It would be fine, and a great rivalry, without ESPN and Dukie V trying to cram it down our throats every season.

I hear you on Dickie V...he gets it, he knows his ***** (most of the time anyways) and loves the passion/crowds as much as I do...but he is just annoying.

What I like to do....go to a sports bar (especially if you find a bar that supports one of the schools at play and everyone is there just for that game)...take in the crowd and the atmosphere, and you usually can't even hear the commentators on TV!

It is the greatest rivaly in college basketball period.
And I'm a Wake fan.

I love UNC but ESPN is overkilling the coverage of the game. do we really need to see a camera shot from the rim the whole game?

[bluehenbillk]

It seems like ESPN & Duke cut a NBC/Notre Dame type deal, every friggin game is on & Vitale, Patrick & company couldn't be bigger Dukie apologists.

it will probably make me dizzy

I plan to turn the sound down and listen to the Tar Heel Sports Network, therefore no Dukie V for me!

Not saying I like Dukie V........
but how much Woody can you really take?

[goasu984Life]

I love Woody. I would always rather listen to him than the TV guys.

The TV guys can get to be annoying sometimes.
The bad thing about the Tar Heel broadcast is almost
every basket made it sponsered.
