- In a battle of the top two teams in the nation, Steve Wojciechowski, Trajan Langdon and the top-ranked Duke Blue Devils, make the short eight-mile trip to Chapel Hill, to take on All-American Antawn Jamison, high-flying Vince Carter and the second-ranked North Carolina Tar Heels, in a lopsided battle of the nation's and ACC's best.
Game played on Thursday, February 5, 1998 at the Dean E. Smith Center in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

It's only fitting that there's an old ESPN commercial with the great Stuart Scott during the Carolina Duke game. Seeing how he's a big tarheel fan we miss you stuart.
Ed Cota was phenomenal. Always has his head up, great sense of where guys wanted the ball.
One of my faves
Truth
Unbelievable college player.
I grew up in North Carolina and I am a big Tarheels fan. A friend of mine in college had an older brother who had season tickets and had an extra ticket to this game for me. It was awesome! Pure awesome! We went down to Franklin street after the game. Great times!!
Vince Carter is the only one who can miss a massive alley oop slam dunk and the missed dunk STILL got the PLAY OF THE GAME! HALF MAN-HALF AMAZING!
Two amazing teams! Great game, this is the college basketball I was fortunate enough to grow up on. I miss when college basketball still had talented players for multiple years and so many great teams as a result.
Omg the memories with these commercials in this clip! #RIPSTU
Wha-aaaaat?! One of, if not the most exquisite dismantlings of Duke at the hands of vintage Carolina ball I thought was lost forever, now restored here on youtube?! Ah, a phenomenal team: 97 points; 64 (or 66?) in the paint. Pass the wine and cheese, please. I can now forgive my friend's ex for having taped over his recording of this game with a soap-opera. Bless you!
Shammond Williams was my dude back in the day! Definitely won one of my favorite players on that squad.
I was lucky when I was in middle school to have Shammond show up at 2 different summer basketball camps back-to-back. The second time we met in person and he helped me with my 3-point range. I was an improved shooter because of him
Antawn Jamisons stat in this game is RIDICULOUS!! He scored the most points in the game with 34 points and at the end of the game they mention he only touched the ball for around 35 seconds the entire game! I grew up in North Carolina and was raised a massive Tar Heels fan..I’ve been collecting Antawn Jamison cards since the 90s and my older brother got me into it because he loved Vince Carter and started collecting on a serious level..We still collect to this day and is awesome we have that childhood bond due to basketball and how good it was!

How much I love and used to love listening to commentator Vicky d who made college it's so fun just listening to him commentate
Antawn Jamison was amazing. He'd be my starting power forward on an all time Tar Heel team.
Over Rasheed Wallace? You're high.
@@josephvanhorn5347 Yes, look at the numbers. Now, I'd like to have both of them, have Jamison at PF and Rasheed at C, but then you'd have to take Tyler Hansbrough at C. I'd love to have Rasheed though, he was great.
@@larrytxeast8756 Sheed was better than both of them. He left for the NBA after his sophomore season while Jameson played one more year and Hansborough stayed at UNC until he ran out of eligibility. Sheed shot a higher percentage than both of them. He's always been a defensive monster. I can see the argument for the other guys having better careers at UNC because they were there longer than Sheed but neither of them were on his level. If there was one game vs Duke and you put one of those two in the lineup and not Sheed I think you'd have a problem with most UNC fans. You'd definitely have a problem with the other players.
This was the season that the same 4 teams topped the polls all season, Duke, UNC, Arizona and Kansas. They were the four #1 seeds in the NCAA tournament but only UNC out of the group made the Final Four and none of them made it to the final game.
thats insane
Kentucky Wildcats. Go Big Blue.
Thanks very much for uploading this video! This was one of the best bball games I had ever seen. I loaned it to a friend years ago and they lost it, so finding this, it was like christmas!
Tar Heel FEVER.....hotter than a Carolina summer!!
This game shows how good that UNC team was, Should have at least been playing Kentucky for the title!
Still think about the Utah loss.
1:41:26 - The greatest missed dunk in college basketball history
The reaction of the crowd...imagine if that went in, that place would’ve exploded.
Not only college basketball history......ALL TIME!!!
We are all lucky it missed. If Vince finished that it would have caused a 9.8 earthquake and liquefied both polar ice caps.
This play has been in my memory bank for 2 decades. Thanks for the find
It’s so crazy that Antawn and Carter were roommates in college and played together then draft night Antawn goes 4th to Toronto and 5th Carter gets drafted to Golden State..Immediately after Toronto trades Antawn to GS for Carter and the rest is history..Michael Olokandi didn’t deserve to get drafted first..That rookie class was phenomenal! Paul Pierce,Dirk, Jason Williams, Larry Hughs, Mike Bibby, Roshawn Mcloud,Felipe Lopez, bonzi wells then Antawn and Carter!
Was in highschool when this game was played Jameson went off has 22 in first half prob could have went for forty but we sat him and vince Carter ten mins in 2nd half up by twenty-five on the dook blue devils
Antwan Jamison was actually a very good NBA player
Thanks for uploading old college games I absolutely love college basketball. It isn't the same now that it is today it's basically a one and done pre NBA league but these days you had star Juniors and Seniors. The fans, the atmosphere created each game I just miss these days so much!
Crazy good UNC team should have won it all and would have with dean or Roy
They got hosed in the Final 4 against Utah. The refs were terrible....calling fouls on Jamison when he was laying on the floor. Though, Shammond was terrible in Final 4s....he was terrible the year before and then again in 98....but still, they still got stiffed by the refs in that game.
Shoot! I just realize that 4 Straight ACC Player of the Year were on these 2 teams. Jamison, Brand, Casrwell and Battier. Plus Jamison, Brand and Battier were National Player of the Year. I really wanted to see both teams in the finals in 1998. It was setup for a potential UNC vs Duke National Title game that year, but unfortunately neither team made it to the finals.
Took the comment right out of my mouth....It would have been a great final (just like 1991 would have), but it wasn't meant to be...SMH...Wow, the great times of College Hoops and sports in general.
Man these were the best 2 teams in 1998 idc what anyone says. At the end of the day I really do think North Carolina would have won that Championship game but damn it would have been great to see it
Back when the talent in college basketball was elite
this was probably my favorite year. this game started the 3 game sweep on Duke
No, they lost the next game at Cameron
That was the greatest missed dunk of all time by Vince..Geesh
Ed Cota was a very special player and an absolute joy to watch.
He was a jump shot away from being a HOFer...
You're drunk.
This team should of went undefeated they had talent across the board I remember watching this game I cried when u UNC didn't win it all
I was at thus game sitting under the basket in the red coat near the Duke bench
15:49mark ed Cota had wojo skating 😂ed Cota had a handle
How is it that Kentucky is supposed to have all these great athletes yet watching them play is so damn boring it makes your eyes bleed . Anytime Carolina has athletes they play some of the most exciting basketball ever.
Back when it tool multiple skills to be a standout basketball player. Today, all they do is chuck threes or drive to the basket. Anything else, under the current rules, would be stupid.
This HEELS Team Shoulda Won A Chip. 🏀 🏆
Thank you.
You're quite welcome!!!!!
Smoking offensive play. Great "D"
Dook is Dook. They're on TV more than Leave to Bea-VA reruns
UNC imo best team that year better then Duke and Kentucky just a disappointing ending that year
1 day I'm hoping that duke and UNC will meet to decide the NCAA title
i hope so ONLY if UNC definitely has the better team.... My heart can NOT handle a loss in the title to them...
@@TheGeemann666 I'm not so sure dook had the better team, that game was a push. We had just beaten them by 20pts in the ACC tourney a couple of weeks earlier. Still didnt want it to happen. Fox and Chilcutt really choked against KU
Ed cota arguably the best point guard in NC history...
*is
I literally gave a co worker 20 points and Duke but he wouldn't bet me. I just knew what was fixing to go down. 300 dollars and 20 points with Duke is brave or crazy. But I was both lol.
Who's doing the voice over at the beginning? Big bet at work...
This team was never deep enough to win a National Championship.
These two teams should had met in the Final Four that year. It's so sad that Kentucky (and to a certain extent, the refs) destroyed what could had been an Epic National Semifinal that would had made the National Title Game irrelevant. Alas, it wasn't meant to be.
Duke should have beat Kentucky they had no business losing that game
1:22:40 Melvin Levete we know now you would have had no chance versus Vince Carter.
Everytime suke looses to north carolina , ye saids how coach K will sing the praises of north Carolina
so if this was on ESPN2 who knows what was on ESPN this day
Probably the spelling bee.
@@jeremywade6986 ah didn't think of that
@@jeremywade6986 underrated comment
Well, during that time of year my bet would be another basketball game. Not too hard to figure out really.
Inrespect Dicky V euthusiasm but hated the way cslled games
Who is here because of Coach K’s Farewell Tour?
We know who is the best blue it’s in chapel hill no it’s not duke and we prove it again bring on duke it only July I’m ready for it now
Beat down 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Anyone else watch Norm Macdonald do the Espy's after this?

WOW! This should be a #METOO retro... OJ joke takes the cake though!
Were it not for Makhtar Ndiaye UNC would have won by 30+
Coach K always whining to the refs instead of coaching his team
I used to think this until Bill walton came around
only ACC loss in 2 seasons
and what a brutal ass whooping it was LMFAO. DESTROYED THEM
Duke lost 8 of 9 aganist North Carolina just goes to show Dean owned K...for you snobby duke fans and Saint K
Dickie V is the worse announcer ever in Basketball. So annoying.
I can see how some might find him annoying but I always loved the enthusiasm he had calling games. I prefer his style to many of the other bland announcers out there.
I loved Dicky V and all his sayings and puns. "Warm up the bus" .."it's R&R time. Rip and Run time" ...dude just went nuts during games. I loved it!
Greatest announcer of all time! Dickie V 🐐
Dickie v made college basketball exciting
Bill Walton has taken that title just down right awful
