Ivy Athletics: Can they be relevant again in the major sports?

<p>Actually, I go to UNC (transferred from Syracuse, which is why I have the 'Cuse name). Our football team did pretty well this year, 8-4 in the regular season and sold out our bowl game.</p>

<p>Duke basketball has been decent (again, by Duke’s standards) these past few years, but Duke has higher standards than just winning the ACC tourney. Losing 4 years in a row to your arch rival and getting knocked out early in the tourney repeatedly over the last several years constitutes a failure to most Duke fans. </p>

<p>I’m not sure about Duke making a bowl this year, but it could happen. Cutcliffe definitely has his work cut out for him though. </p>

<p>I’ll give you lacrosse. Duke lacrosse is the only Duke team I don’t dislike, mainly because of the injustice that the team was subjected to a couple of years ago.</p>
