This State Dominates College Basketball 

Thanks for saying this, it's a great point people overlook!

Duke is Puke, Wake is Fake , But the team I hate is NC State. Learning this as a young kid in Alamance County. When I was small Carolina vs State was the Rivalry. Respect all 4 universities and always will!

I graduated from both high school and college in Reynolds! ....and yes, without AC.

State plays like they don’t exist lmao 67-54

unc fans should likely be silent until the fall at least considering that state beat them in football, state men beat them to win the acc tournament (meaning that none of UNCs players have never won an acc tournament while their rivals have won the past 2 years) to make the tournament and make the final four and state’s women’s team also made the final four

it is great you got to see us end you in K's big L

Also "North Caro-lih-nians" not "North Caro-lie-nians"

Glad you enjoyed!

81-77

and state is now irrelevant

You’ve got one good program. We have 2 elite programs and 1 decent 1

@@cgpxae2119 I'm not sure what you're trying to say. That the ACC is historically a tougher basketball conference? I wish UNC and Duke would join the SEC. How awesome it would be for UK, UNC, and Duke to play each other home and home every year? Then in a conference tournament with those fan bases. Man that'd be unreal for true hoop fans.

@@26michaeluk well you were saying Kentucky was the most google program and my rebuttal was the state of North Carolina has 2 highly recognized franchise and the state of Kentucky only has 1

Luke maye be like

@@jackpoplarski7441 DeAndre Liggins in 2011 elite 8 be like... Oh and we've owned that ass the last 15 years. Also I've never disliked UNC like I do Duke. I also liked Roy Williams cause they got up and down the court. How we're playing this year. Well you took the L. Hold that. Losing your accreditation because of fake classes makes most of your wins in that era an asterisk. It's ironic the shot clock was introduced because of a cowardly style of basketball called the 4 corners. Good ole Saint Dean Smith having his players wearing Confederate flag pins once.

Or your forefather NC State

@@Tyman510how is nc state the forefather?

@@Vala30056did you not watch the video?

Bc they suck at basketball now

This is great the read 2 months later, has nc state for a short moment is sitting atop the basketball throne in NC for both men’s and women’s

Who were you hoping to win in NCAA final between them ( the Webber TO game) ? I can’t imagine being fan of two major schools, but the Fab 5 did create a lot of new Michigan fans in 90’s!

Lol no

Ohio State - Michigan at 8?

Half of those nattys were in the 50s and 40s when there was WAY less talent and expansion

UK has one natty since 2000 sit down and shut up Luke maye is still UKs daddy

If it was so easy to win titles back then why didn't unc and duke win some?@@harp1288

Yes greatly, and as a nc native it is a crucial part of North Carolina culture. I regularly had field trips to the acc tournament. We often fill out brackets in class when March comes around and will often watch the games in class. Duke students literally have to take a test on their knowledge of Duke basketball in order to just wait in line for the Duke unc game (for which they have to camp out side in tents for like 6 weeks if they pass the test). When my mom moved to nc she immediately got told to pick a team (she chose Duke because they performed the best academically). My parent’s first date was a Duke basketball game, so we do care greatly

everyone in NC KY KS IN cares deeply about college basketball and select markets in other states as well

Yes. When UNC and Duke played in the Final Four in 2022, it got 18.5 million viewers or 5.5% of the US population. That’s absolutely massive for any TV program except the NFL. And since you aren’t American: the Final Four is the semifinal of the NCAA tournament, a 68-team single elimination tournament. It’s like if the FA Cup was played over 3 weeks and decided the league championship.

not even close bro SC and clemson doesnt get national coverage and clemson owns SC in pretty much everything its barely a rivalry

⁠​⁠​⁠@@nottheatf6357You obviously don’t know anything about the rivalry, but that’s ok. The schools count up wins each year in every sport they compete against in. SC consistently dominates the head to head matchups. People forget there’s more than football, even though it’s 1-1 over the last 2 and both won by the visitor. In fact, the SC women’s basketball just won their 15th straight against them, so pretty much everything huh statement doesn’t ring true. The rivalry doesn’t get the exposure, but it’s definitely the most heated rivalry in college, and one of the oldest. When is the last time you heard of a death over any other rivalry? This, unfortunately, is usually something you hear about at least every other year.

@@danielpwalker8421 in the sports that matter the gamecocks get dominated

@@nottheatf6357attempting to move the goalposts I see! 😂 They ALL matter that’s why it’s the greatest rivalry in college sports.

@@danielpwalker8421 that is just objectively incorrect no one even fucking talks about the sub Carolina Clemson rivalry in any capacity nationally it’s Alabama auburn and Michigan OSU in football and duke unc in basketball SUB Carolina and Clemson isn’t even in the top ten of the great rivalry’s in any sport it is a regional rivalry not national get real

Im glad this video annoyed you, it just speaks to how American culture does not need something extra and extravagant ( European football) to be entertained. It just goes to show how little Americans care about Soccer, so much so that we are willing to compare a rivalry in a single state to one of the biggest European events ever, i rest easy knowing I don’t have to watch soccer. It’s ironic that Europeans claim soccer to be the best thing ever but the fact that Americans simply don’t give a single fuck annoyed the hell outta them and believe me America would much rather watch American football and Basketball rather than grown men run around and cry and throw up when they fall down every 45 seconds in soccer. I think Americans are also grateful that when they go to games they are not at risk of being mugged/tear gassed/beaten by riot police just because they wore a different color than the home team. Again rest easy knowing that Americans care so little about Futball that they would rather watch a bunch of teenagers throw a ball into a hoop for 40 min than watch 22 grown men millionaires run around for 90+ minutes

womp womp, love to see the USA living rent free.. who's your daddy?

The what rivalry?

What nonsense are you talking about the francoist team was Barcelona while real was the anti regime team as the representative of the elites nobles and monarchists who saw Franco as unworthy

The origins of the rivalry far precede the civil war being product of the historic Madrid Barcelona rivalry (similar to Boston new York). Both were the biggest teams in Spain (together with espanyol and bilbao) in the early 20th century

He was just giving a comparison to how big a rivalry they have. Of course El Classicó is arguably 1 of top rivalries in World, while Duke-UNC is in US and is college teams, not professional players.

No it’s not

Best rivalry in sports 💯

its not at absurd at all college basketball is just deferent in NC

@@nottheatf6357 basketball period💯
