Brendan Marks, The Athletic, who covers both teams talks about their chances and what happened to them in the ACC Tournament.

Where did Duke fall short in their matchup with NC State? Which players actually showed up and which didn’t pull their own weight, if any? Who said, after their loss in the ACC Tournament, “If we come out expecting to win, then this will happen to us again”? If UNC is going to make this a legitimate run, what are they going to HAVE to do? What stat does Brendan throw out in regards to when UNC has won NCAA titles? Does Brendan think the ACC was shafted by the committee? Adam has created a new way to pick brackets for the NCAA Tournament, so who will Brendan pick?
