In 1980, ACC basketball was a very different scene. There was no three-point shot, no shot clock, Duke's best defense was a 2-3 zone, and Maryland was still in the conference.
Duke and Maryland didn't much like each other, but it wasn't like later, when Maryland hated Duke, while Duke, or at least the fans, were indifferent to Maryland.
It was pretty heated on both sides in 1980, and both teams were really good.
Maryland had Albert King, Ernest Graham, Greg Manning, and Buck Williams, while Duke featured Mike Gminski, Kenny Dennard, and Gene Banks up front, AKA the Duke Power Company.
The guards were Bob Bender and Vince Taylor.
