But you're biased.

Most of this just has to do with people rooting against Duke. Basketball is full of judgement calls. When you watch a game rooting hard against one team, it's hard not to view all those judgement calls with a jaundiced eye. And most fans root against Duke.

A lot of this was started by Billy Packer when Duke played Maryland in the tournament in the Juan Dixon days. Those games were evenly called, but Packer was berating the refs for favoring Duke. He was wrong, without a doubt.
