Thanks for killing my good mood.Before the UNC game, I told my wife (a big Duke fan unfortunately) that while Duke is a very tough team for us to beat, UNC is a bigger obstacle. After our win, that got me thinking, was I right in saying that? Short answer... not really, but it's a mixed bag. Also, I kind of forgot about Virginia at the time.
We actually have a slightly better overall record against UNC than I originally thought (7-17). Also, the last seven times we've faced them, we've done okay (but let's not talk about the 103-67 drubbing). During this stretch, they've won 4 to our 3, and one of their wins was in OT.
Duke has been ugly as of late, I mean real ugly. We've lost the last 9 games (I didn't realize it had become that lopsided). Virginia isn't much better, with only one win in our last 11 matchups. Looking at three teams that have mostly owned us - UNC, Duke, and Virginia...
UNC
Overall Record: 7 wins, 17 losses
Home: 3-5
Road: 0-7
Conference: 3-11
Duke
Overall Record: 6 wins, 16 losses
Home: 2-5
Road: 2-6
Conference: 4-11
70
Virginia
Overall Record: 6 wins, 14 losses
Home: 2-6
Road: 2-6
Conference: 2-12
* one interesting point (although maybe not terribly surprising) is that our average number of points against them is 60! Against Duke (70 points), and UNC (74 points).
Moving forward with Red as head coach, it will be interesting to see if we can play these three teams more competitively, particularly Duke and Virginia. My guess is yes.
Sorry. That one was already takenI only fear, fear itself
And yet you like nice things. It’s a conundrum.It's not a who, but I also find myself fearing the crushing hunger of capitalism.

I want to leave the world with a better climate than we currently have, but I’d also like to travel abroad more frequently. Choices suck sometimes, especially the good ones.I hate myself more every day.

Snakes
Non issue by me. I name them all Herman as I figured giving them a name would make us both feel more comfortable.I'm terrified of snakes.

Honey, I am sorry but the boss is sending me to Vegas for the dental floss conventionI'm going to add to my answer. My wife when I tell her flights out of Newark to Vegas for the Cuse game in October are running at around $900 .

Okay, you know what scares me? Your new avatar! What the hell, man? And I ask that respectfully.And yet you like nice things. It’s a conundrum.
This is very appropriate for upcoming President's Day, 02.19.24. FDR was a proud New Yorker, Hyde Park in the Hudson Valley.The only thing to fear is fear itself. Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
I don't think FDR would fear any of the three.
