"Over there ... is that Mario Lopez?"

'Nova and Duke actually have an interesting history, for two teams that rarely play each other: they met in a 1978 Regional Final (Duke won by 18), and Coach K's 500th victory came against the Wildcats back in 2000 (here's a pic of that night). Here's what we can offer you: if you want to see a bunch of college kids standing in front of a church debating who will win this game in a circular fashion, go here. Oddly, it's quite entertaining. Enjoy, friends.
