The Carolina–Duke rivalry, also known as The Battle of Tobacco Road or The Battle of the Blues, is a fierce rivalry, particularly in men's college basketball, between the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University. It is considered one of the most intense rivalries in all of sports and is amplified by the proximity of the two schools, located only eight miles apart.
The MBA Blue Cup competition is an extension of that rivalry and pits UNC's Kenan-Flagler Business School and Duke?s Fuqua School of Business against each other. An Olympic-style athletic competition, the Blue Cup takes place each spring. The locations for the events alternate between the campuses each year.
