Postgame Podcast - Worn Out Night

Rivalry games are intense. They are battles. And most nights, you can toss out the record books and stat sheets and expect the unexpected. But tonight in the Smith Center, Duke came into the Smith Center Saturday evening and did exactly what many expected they would do. On the other hand, the Carolina could do nothing, especially from the outset of the game and second half. Other than a tough grind to get back in the game late in the first half, the Devils had their way with the Heels in an 87-6...

On the Beat: Devils in the Smith Center, Football Updates

The Postgame: Somehow, A Win

Carolina’s game at Louisville looked ugly. From the play, to the officiating to the fans in the stands, to late game technical fouls - deserved but understandable - the the final second, this game had it all for Tar Heels Basketball this season. In short, a microcosm of the season in 45 minutes. But the bottom line is it was a road win for a team that has been brutally bad on the road this season and a much needed boost headed into a monster game on Saturday against Duke. Sherrell McMillan joins...

The Postgame Podcast: Seemed Like Old Times

Carolina’s consistent struggle for consistency on the floor is well documented and easily observed by those that watch the Tar Heels religiously. Even this past week, Carolina picked up two wins but looked, frankly, awful in doing it. With NC State coming to town, you’d figure it would go one of two ways. But there are a few things in basketball that are more consistent than the Tar Heels wearing out the Wolfpack and Saturday afternoon in the Smith Center was just another incarnation of that fac...

The Postgame: Heels Exposed Again in Rout

Venturing away from the Smith Center has not been kind to Hubert Davis’s North Carolina Basketball team. The Heels crushed Georgia Tech three days ago in Chapel Hill only to travel down to Miami and be destroyed by the Hurricanes in a game for first place in the conference. The Tar Heels repeated a problematic trend of folding in the face of a physical and aggressive opponent and suffered an 85-57 defeat.

Coast to Coast: Dominant Performance Before The Schedule Toughens

Carolina’s week off after breaking Virginia’s seven game winning streak was a bit concerning. Could Hubert Davis’s team maintain the momentum that win provided heading into Saturday night’s contest against a struggling Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket team? The Tar Heels answered that question emphatically in the Smith Center with an 88-65 win as Armando Bacot continued his spirited play by tying his career high in points (29) for the second time in a week. RJ Davis again showed his disdain for the te...
