Just a reminder what kind of freaky stuff goes on when UNC plays in Atlanta. In case you have blocked this out or are not old enough to remember it, UNC was ahead by three with five seconds left and Dean Smith instructs his team to foul rather than allowing any of the Yellow [...] Continue reading UNC-GT Game Thread Where: Alexander Memorial Coliseum aka The Bermuda Triangle aka The Fourth Circle of Hell When: Sunday, January 16th, 7:30 PM TV: Fox Sports Records: UNC 12-4, 2-0 ACC; GT 7-8, 0-2 ACC Under conventional rules and season where UNC is operating at the level we have all become accustomed to, playing a 7-8 team that [...] Continue reading UNC at Georgia Tech Bird and the guys at the fine Georgia Tech blog From the Rumble Seat offered up some questions and answers about Sunday night’s matchup between the Jackets and UNC. Their questions and our answers can be found here. Here are our questions and their answers about the somewhat enigmatic Yellow Jackets: [...] Continue reading Georgia Tech: Q&A with From the Rumble Seat We’ve seen this movie before, right? Heels go down by double digits at some point in the first half, primarily due to their inability to put the ball in the basket, before slowly chipping away and wearing down their opponent to rally for the win. This was nothing more than the UVa Game Part Deux. [...] Continue reading UNC vs. VaTech: Beyond the Box At some point we are going to have a discussion about not digging the double digit hole to start the game. However all the credit in the world goes to UNC for not folding up because it would have been easy to do so on no less than three instances. In fact, I think the [...] Continue reading UNC 64 VT 61 I will be at the game taking my oldest daughter to her first ever Tar Heel basketball game. Nothing like breaking in a new generation of UNC fans with a game like this. A quick word on comments. I know game threads get heated and I know folks get really emotional which leads to all [...] Continue reading UNC-VT Game Thread Where: Dean Smith Center, Chapel Hill, NC When: Thursday, January 13th, 9:00 PM TV: ESPN Records: UNC 11-4, 1-0 ACC; VT 10-4, 1-1 ACC Since about 2007, UNC-VT has been an entertaining matchup. The Hokies won both games in 2007 with their experience guards getting the best of freshmen Ty Lawson and Wayne Ellington. There [...] Continue reading UNC vs Virginia Tech No, it’s not a bad Jeff Foxworthy game show. The folks at reesenews.org, which is a project of UNC’s School of Journalism and Mass Communication, have developed an interactive web quiz called “Staying in Bounds“, in which you are presented with 10 potential rules violation scenarios and it is up to you to make the [...] Continue reading Are You Smarter than a NCAA Investigator? Wait….what? North Carolina defensive lineman Marvin Austin, who did not play a snap for the Tar Heels this season, may play in a college football all-star game. UNC spokesman Kevin Best said Tuesday that the 6-foot-3, 305-pound defensive lineman is expected to make the trip and play for the East team in the Jan. 22 [...] Continue reading Austin To Play In East-West Shrine Game. UPDATE: Austin Will Wear UNC Helmet The big takeaway from a game with little to choose from in takeaways. But coach Roy Williams – who was guilty of it after Saturday’s win at Virginia, when he said he hadn’t seen that kind of toughness out of his team in a long time – said today it’s time to give these Tar [...] Continue reading Roy Loves His Team’s Tenacity Yesterday’s game against Virginia can really be summed up in three words: good, ugly, good. The first 10 minutes (UNC +9) and the last 14 minutes (UNC +17) were pretty good for the Heels. The middle 16 minutes? Well, do you can do the math. It certainly wasn’t pretty, but on a day when 7 [...] Continue reading UNC vs. UVa: Beyond the Box |
