Well, so far Duke and Syracuse have faced off twice in ACC basketball games. And both games have been pretty darn good.
We're guessing though, most basketball fans will remember the second game, played Saturday night.
It was memorable because it was played well. A back and forth struggle at an extra loud Cameron Indoor Stadium. The Blue Devils were led by freshman Jabari Parker who had 19 points and the Orange led by Jerami Grant who had 17.
But a play by Duke's Rodney Hood with 10 seconds to go is what everyone will remember. Hood drew a very questionable charge call on C.J Fair and Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim responded by leaping up and running across the floor to argue the call with referee Tony Greene.
And it appears that most everyone, from commentators to non-Duke fans watching the game agreed with the call.
But Boeheim's going beserk drew a double technical foul, got him tossed from the game and gave Duke the chance to pull away and get the 66-60 win.
