FYI the 1991 Duke-UNLV national semi-final is on at 12 noon Saturday, April 5 on ESPN Classic

1992 Duke-Kentucky was transcendent, but this arguably was the keystone win of the K era.

1992 may have been transcendent (?) but the 1991 game was the most important win in the history of Duke hoops- the springboard to our first NC that vaulted Duke to the pinnacle of college hoops. It was also arguably the greatest upset in NCAA FF history- had UNLV won (they had demolished the Devils the year before in the finals by 30) they would likely have finished undefeated and labeled the best college team of all time.
Addition of Grant Hill tipped the scales, but Hurley's 3 with 2+ minutes left was the absolute game saver for us.

Then at 4, you can watch the 2004 game vs. uconn in the final four. I would play a drinking game where I drink everytime oakfor draws a foul against one of our "big men" but then I would die from alcohol poison.....
