NEW ORLEANS — Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski's remarkable career came to a thrilling and sudden close Saturday night after Caleb Love made a key 3-pointer and three late free throws to lift archrival, North Carolina, to a thrill-a-minute 81-77 victory over the Blue Devils.
This was the 258th, most consequential, and maybe, just maybe, the very best meeting between these teams, whose arenas are separated by a scant 11 miles down in Tobacco Road. The Tar Heels , of all teams, pinned the 368th and final loss on the 75-year-old Coach K, exactly four weeks after they ruined the going-away party in his final home game at Cameron Indoor Stadium.This one stopped the coach's last-gasp, storybook run one win away from a title game and a chance at his sixth championship.
