Austin Rivers is ... Sub-zero

Hello, America. I know you've been concentrating on football and maybe you are just now getting over your Super Bowl party, but college basketball is here in a big way - especially me. 

Hello, Duke/UNC rivalry. You have been doing this for years with classic battles that are remembered for lifetimes. I just did something special that none of you will ever forget. 

My friends and family call me Austin Rivers. My opponents know me as Sub-zero. UNC fans will remember me as the assassin who ripped out their heart.

As a Duke fan, I'm not sure if I could have written a better script to conclude that game. As Rivers' game-winning three spun through the air, team narratives were being rewritten, new heroes were being cast and new scapegoats (or rams, as the case may be) were emerging.

Duke had come roaring back from down 13 in the second half and appearing to have no chance ... that is until Austin Rivers decided he wanted to live up to his Mortal Kombat nickname. With ice in his veins and a 7-footer in his face, Rivers drained his sixth three-pointer of the night and catapulted himself into legendary status.

Austin Rivers is Sub-zero and fans of both Duke and North Carolina will never forget it.
