No.14 North Carolina erased a 13-point deficit to stun No.4 Duke, 71-68, handing the Blue Devils their second loss of the season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Blue Devils jumped out early, racing a 14-5 lead and extending the margin 18-5 before UNC settled in. Duke closed the first half on an 11-2 run, maintaining control through most of the night.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Duke led 41-29 at halftime.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite trailing for nearly the entire game, North Carolina continued to chip away. After forcing a defensive stop, the Tar Heels took possession with 10 seconds remaining.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With 0.4 seconds remaining, freshman guard Seth Trimble drilled the game-winning three-pointer, sealing UNC\u2019s largest comeback win over Duke in 25 years. Saturday’s clash proved to be another instant chapter to one of college basketball’s most intense rivalries.\u00a0<\/p>\n
