00:5620 but now we ask is it the best rivalry in college sports by or sell the RS?

01:03Duke versus North Carolina is the best rivalry in college sports. I got a bite here

01:09I do now understand this to like football usually means more, Michigan, Ohio State is massive

01:15I mean they like that week of the rivalry and the hatred between those two teams

01:20That is something and the same thing about the Iron Bowl down south. It's the the the carbon copy up

01:25Here's the North battle that they hate each other

01:26Here's the Southern battle that they hate each other in-state rivalry down there and you take a look at Alabama and Auburn

01:32So many national championships up in flames so many chances to get you know pre let's just say

01:37Playoffs you got to win that to kick six memorable moments. I understand that but for just pure fun

01:44UNC and Duke because it seems like every single year for at least my lifetime. Let's just say the past 40 years

01:51Superstars on both sides of the equation. You have the state school versus the private school

01:55You have Cameron indoor which you know seats, you know

01:589,000 or 10,000 you have 22,000 in a modern arena over there at the Dean Smith Center in North Carolina eight miles apart

02:06So it's not like hey opposite end of the state here like you are a little bit quick drive here battle lines are drawn in

02:12That state and as much as I think football usually carries the day with most people in society

02:16I got to tell you this isn't a rivalry. Hey, they just got started 1982 every year

02:21It's so big and also the optics coach K

02:23You know coaching his final season who's he get downplayed and knocked out by North Carolina

02:28Every single chance you have to get new blood in the rivalry. It just keeps working in that direction

02:34So I'm gonna have to say Carolina Duke for me growing up probably the best rivalry

02:39I've watched in college throughout my lifetime to be honest
