What's this?

Miracle on hardwood?

My wife, not in any way a sports fan (but humors me, God bless her), saw a slight parallel to the 1980 US Hockey win against the USSR in the looks on the Duke players’ faces at the end, compared to the Hokie jubilation.

We did just rewatch Miracle within the last week, so it was fresh in her mind.
