Cain’s father played golf at North Carolina's arch-rival, Duke, and named his son for the Blue Devils.

It doesn’t plan to be intimidated by the all banners hanging in the rafters in its first road game of the season. “They put their jersey on like we do,” Georgia senior guard Smurf Millender said. “They bleed how we bleed. It’s not nothing that we’re not prepared for that Coach White and the other coaches haven’t prepared us for since June.” Georgia is 5-13 all-time against the Tar Heels, but had perhaps the biggest win in program
