Enjoy from my personal collection of NCAA Tournament games. With Arizona advancing to the final with a convincing victory against Michigan State, I simply figured Duke would beat Maryland to set up the inevitable title game. For one half, Maryland had other plans, leading by 20 points at one point in the first half and seemingly avenging an incredible Duke comeback against the Terps earlier that season. Of course, Duke would rally in the second half and pull out the win. For the 2000-01 Maryland team, its season would be remembered for allowing two devastating comebacks by Duke. This stinging loss during the Final Four would pay off a year later as the Terrapins would return to the Final Four and win the whole enchilada against Indiana, a Cinderella that upset defending-national champion Duke during the Sweet Sixteen. Thanks to the DukeBluePlanet Vault YouTube channel for these clips of both Duke comebacks against Maryland.
