The half blue was about espn having a say in the matter. If unc thinks their best interests lie with the big ten, I'm sure espn would try their hardest to stop it, but fail.

NFL Blitz has better referees.

Hard to tell what is new news and what is just rehashing the old rumors. GT has come up before (especially right after the Maryland/Rutgers additions, and UVA and UNC have been mentioned as possibilities as well.

I don't think UNC will automatically stick to Duke. Everything is about $$$ nowadays and if it means the end of traditional rivalries so be it. Pitt-WV. Texas-Texas A&M. Oklahoma-Nebraska. If UNC gets the most money from the Big 10 then I don't think their rivalry with Duke will stop them.

Beside, it's more of a basketball rivalry then anything and they could easily schedule non-conference basketball games each year. It's not like football where you only get 4 NC games a year.

And if they aren't in the same division, wouldn't that make them more likely to meet in March Madness? It seems that they spread out teams in the same division.
