I think the 2nd game last year had around 4-5 million viewers on ESPN alone, and that's not counting the people in NC who watched the game on CBS instead. Auburn-Alabama had about 13.5 million viewers last year.

Aren't you an Auburn sidewalk fan??
Nah, he got into the supposed Harvard of the South with a 2.7 GPA.

Do they put the game on CBS affiliates in North Carolina for every game?

A year or two ago there was a stat that since they had began playing (about 100 years or so), UNC had outscored Duke by 1 point. That's just unheard of.
Wow

Please please please please tell me you think Carolina fans are classy. It's a really similar fan base to Alabama, they just care (and attend) less.
Yes. People that actually attend Carolina and Duke are classy. Alabama and Auburn, not so much.
All sidewalk fans of any team are relegated to trash, so they don't count.

For every Duke-UNC game, yes.

Bow down to an AU grad? Nah, I think I'll pass.
Do tell us more though about how AU has won 4 national titles since 83.

Or maybe it has something to do with primetime on Saturday
eh theres a lot of people out and about, on weekend getaways, shopping, etc on Saturdays...Wed not so much, everybody is at home. If they wanted to watch the game they would.

You can probably combine all three games, multiple by TEN and you MIGHT be get close to how many people watched the IB next year. Doubt it though.

I got in with a 2.9
How long ago was this? I had a 3.6 with an honorable discharge and still had to wait to transfer to UF.

I had a 2.7 in high school. Didn't give a damn either.
Blew the doors off the act first and only time I took it and that was that.

two great academic schools,
now this is not true at all. unc doesn't have the same academic standards as duke, they don't even have real classes.

It was 1991, but in all fairness I also got into KU, Bama, UGA, and Utah (I was all over the board).

This is mostly right. Carolina, just like Bama is 85/15. How can you tell a group of Carolina alums from a group of Carolina fans? The alums don't have a sock between them, and the fans don't have a tooth.
That said, I'd say a lot of Duke alums are weird as shite and not necessarily classy. Maybe because of their New Jersey backgrounds.

UNC is a top 5 public college.
