Imagine you're a Duke fan. It's your coach's last home game, your team is #4 in the country and they're playing (unranked) North Carolina, your most hated rival. You've spent $5k+ and slept in a tent for weeks leading up to this moment. You lose by 13 points lmfao

You really have to give Carolina a lot of credit for taking the fight to Duke all game long, especially on Coach K’s final home game

UNC really played spoiler. i could imagine how happy the Tarheel coach was that his players sent coach k off with a loss...to their biggest rival

This is why this rivalry is the best in college basketball! Just like the Tar Heels to beat Duke on their home court on Coach K's last game!🔥🔥🔥

I have a lot of respect for Coach K and what he was able to accomplish at Duke, but as a UNC fan I also loved every moment of watching UNC fold Duke on Coach K’s last game!

Although I'm from alabama..my older brother is from ashville North Carolina he unfortunately died a while back but loved the tar heels........glad they got the win tonight against their main rival...although I have a tremendous amount of respect for coach K. Excellent game brothers💯😤💪🏻

As a lifetime UNC fan, this brought tears of joy to my eyes

I was so glad to shut down the K parade. It’s was nice that coach Smith and Williams didn’t need all the fanfare. Probably the most fun win ever vs dook. Go Heels!

UNC starters all finally contributed as opposed to one player carrying the load. Let's keep this momentum into the upcoming tournaments 👍

Being a dad for a UNC graduate, I was so happy for the win. My son told me many times, how excited he was when he was a sophomore at UNC and they won the ncaa championship in 2017.

As a Duke fan. I had a feeling we'd loose. How many times can you hear RJ Davis in a game and come away with the W... yeah not happening lol. That guy is a FORCE.

Hey Tarheels, as a KU Jayhawks fan I know we've had our differences, but thank you for putting the hurt on!!!

Dean Smith's last game at his namesake arena was a 91-85 win over Duke. Roy Williams' last game in the Dean E. Smith Center was a 91-73 win over Duke. Mike Krzyzewski’s last game in Cameron Indoor Stadium was a 94-81 loss to UNC. Something to think about.

What a perfect win, UNC demoralizing Duke on their home court for coach K's last game w/ all of Duke's b-ball alums in attendance! Crowd in tears at the end, LOL!

Unc has to be in the tournament now, they finally got a signature win

So glad my Heels played their best game of the season on this night. Nothing could be finer!!!

Now THAT was satisfying! Thanks, ESPN for all the great pics of sad-faced, sobbing Dukies at the end.

Absolutely enjoyed this game! Of all the UNC/Duke games I have watched in my 65 years this is definitely one of the most satisfying.

What a win by UNC. Much needed. This win should carry them through the conference tournament and hopefully the big dance. All the starters did their job tonight and to win at duke while it’s coach k last regular season game is even better. Glad they bounced back after getting cooked the first meeting

TAR HEELS BABY!!! Best rivalry in the ACC 💯 🏀👏🏼

Super thrilled for my Tarheels especially considering the significance of it all. Plus we needed this W much more and were on fire 🔥 rn. Now for da ACC tourney. Go Heels 😇

This ONE WIN goes down in history. All the money spent for tickets and Tarheels hands Duke a loss. Vegas is stunned. Odds had it other way with double digits!

November 1980 the year and month I was born. Same time coach K coached his 1st game with Duke. I have watched every game between these 2 teams since I was a child. I've lived in NC all my life and with these 2 programs NC has something to be proud of. I'm a Carolina fan, this was a tremendous win, but Duke has absolutely nothing to hang their heads about.

Great career for coach K, he’s been a very big part of this rivalry, but we had to remind him that North Carolina is THE TARHEEL STATE !!!!

Hope Coach K had fun on his journey, well kiss you Coach K

What a SAVAGE L the Heels gave K tonight.

I’m a duke fan but I have to admit Carolina played an Amazing game. All the hype around coach k detracted from their performance in the game.

Greatest farewell tour ever!!!! Forget about all of the yelling, cursing K has done to the refs, coaches, fans, and opposing players. Forget about all of the dook players who have been arrested and never missed a game. Forget about all of the players that were paid under the table to play at dook. This coach will be remembered for losing his last home game ,with his biggest hype-man (espn), providing nearly 40 cameras so we could have plenty of angles to watch his unranked, biggest rival, humiliate him.......GO HEELS!!!!!

Too bad Duke... this loss is never removed!

Anyone else see dukes assistant coach at the end not shake Coach Hubert’s hand? Unbelievable.

Somebody who went to that game tell me how that makes u feel. Couldn’t imagine paying 80K for VIP seats to that game.

This game was filled with ultimate nostalgic memories . Duke enjoyed the ultimate pregame and Carolina the ultimate regular season experience. The heels gave this historic coach a fresh taste of what it's like to lose the final and most important home game of his magnificent Hall of Fame career. Both schools celebrated a magnificent day.

It’s May 6, and I’m watching this again. This was the happiest I’d been until we beat them again in the Final Four. We’ve won 4 of the last 5, and extend the all time series lead. Go Heels!

UNC v Duke basketball games were one of the highlights

Coach K will always remember getting that last home loss. It's just a favor UNC really wanted do for him.

As a Tar Heel alum, I was very happy with the end result last night, although I have to admit to being shocked that the Heels pulled it off. Duke is easily the better basketball team, but the Heels showed the kind of fight that's been absent all year. I have an intense dislike for all things Duke, but tremendous respect for Coach K. Hate to say it, but he's the best to ever do it at the college level.

you know who's the biggest loser of the duke vs north carolina? people that spend over $80k for this game! xD

These old Tar Heel eyes are smiling! GO HEELS!

Lmaoo UNC just took a big ol'dump on Duke's parade. Classic!

What, a, fair, well, to, Coach K, final Home Game, he's truly leaving a great Legacy.

No matter who is ranked where, this game is always the best in college basketball. I just hope the high that Carolina is on right now doesn't bite them in the keester in the ACC and NCAA tourneys. Duke will be back with vengeance, I'm afraid, GO HEELS!!!

Another classic example of why teams should focus on the task at hand. All the pomp and circumstance should have been done at another time. Duke had no chance with all the distractions.

Coach K had an amazing career at Duke. However, remember the Heels.

I was dying laughing when they showed the duke crowd crying and the fact we beat the rat in his last game

And most Duke fans paid $5,000 to see Coach K’s final home game spoiled!

This was just plain awesome to see. Go Heels

Heroic performance

I come back to this when im feeling lousy 😂

The myth the legend

the whole organization of kentucky and virgina thanks unc

Tickets were almost $80,000 to attend this game which is absolutely ridiculous. So I'm glad North Carolina gave the blue devils a good old fashion whupping!

How sweet it is!

Guaranteed Coach K will never forgive his players for this. Guaranteed!

Hilariously awesome win for UNC as an unranked opponent on Dukes home floor. Wow

Coach K the greatest coach to never have to coach. Refs for his farce of a career got keys to new Cadillac.

Happy to see the Virginia Blue Devils lose tonight. Each season, the team should be called by the state that they get most of their players from because they never have any from North Carolina. This year four of their starters are from Virginia. I don’t think they have one guy from NC. They don’t rep North Carolina anymore than Notre Dame reps North Carolina.

Thank you Coach K.

Coach with the player exclusive 1s 👌🏻

i love North Carolina!

FAREWELL COACH K

One of the sweetest wins possible for a UNC fan. Spoiling Coach K's final home game in front of a packed house of Cameron Crazies going insane is like a Tar Heel fever dream lol. I think everybody kind of assumed that an unranked UNC was just going to lay down. This was an extremely impressive win in arguably the most difficult environment imaginable.

The Heels were the better team tonight. Duke has trouble with guards that control the game. The Devils came in with all the pressure an the Heels played with house money. This Tarheel team gonna be a bracket buster in March. Its not how start but how you finish. Carolina is capable of winning 6 games. Go Heels!

UNC UNC

Painful but the often reality of boxing and basketball. Too much pressure to win is all too often the proverbial shot in the heart. Tonight , the best team won. We all wanted a Hoosiers final win…..only in our minds. Maybe next time…..not! It’s only a game….all of the players excelled ! 🏀👍

Thanks ESPN. We need more free sports.

They’re pissed🤩

He's not Johnny Wooden or Rupp or even Dean Smith Coach K was a Steve Fisher more or less. He got schooled in this game by arch rival UNC.

Go Heels! I can’t help but laugh at all of the people who paid thousands of dollars to watch Coach K lose his final home game

Fantastic!

One of the greatest respects a rival can give you is play you beyond their capabilities. I have a feeling if DUKE had Won they would of placed the Coach on their Shoulders and pulled a RUDY, but maybe they decided to hold off on that celebration for the Championship Game.

I’ve been a Duke fan all my life, I mean my last name is Duke. It’s a shame coach K couldn’t get a win in his final home game but we still have a chance to win a chip

A true beat down

Yeeeessss tarheels!!!! Whohoooo!!!

Proud Tarheel FANS STAND TF UP!

I'm glad the tar heels gave coach k a loss for his last regular season game against the tar heels like they did when he first coached duke against the tar heels many years ago. Dean Smith said coach k will be a great coach and he was right so they will probably win the acc tournament and maybe the national title for revenge for this loss at home but I'm still glad the tar heels won this game and hope they win the rest of the games they play this season.

Way to go Tar Heels 🐏

Hubert Davis! Big win coach spoiled coach k last game

A lot of times no matter whos playin. when it's close at the half then one team starts getting the advantage right out in the 2nd like that... the momentum is so hard to 180 back around. You'd have to be Duke to do that but then...RJ Davis..Agaiinnn.. so... yeah. Lol.

Carolina seems to be peaking at the right time. I love a teams that can spread the floor.

How is UNC not ranked? At least 25

Can't believe Pitt beat this UNC team then got crushed by Duke lol

It would be cool if these two squads finally met in the NCAA tourney for Coach K’s Swan Song

Lmao +15 point differential for Carolina when it mattered. And tonight Duke had no chance in Chapel Hill.

Roy Williams and Dean Smith smiling 😃💕

Duke is giving them the business today because of this loss.

RJ and Caleb came to play

Extra extra... TARHEELS TAKE MAJOR DUKIE IN FLUSHING COACH K's FINALE!!!

UNC vs Duke final four I’m calling it

How you lose coach k last game 😭

Hubert Davis' program has arrived

TAR!

Coach K = 🐐

Great game unc. Controlled the pace and turnover margin and pulled it out

Who’s here because UNC and Duke are playing in the final four

That assistant coach for Duke dodged Hubert's handshake, definitely on purpose

Go Tarheels

That coach L pacc hittin💨💨

Love it

GREATEST win in coach Davis career!!!

TARHEELS! Big win.
