ACC Roundup - Florida State Nearly Pulls Off Another Comeback

In Monday’s ACC Action, UNC got ridiculously hot in the first half, hitting 11 threes, and building a lead that Florida State cut into but could never overcome.

This is even more impressive when you realize how ineffective Armando Bacot was. Though he did get eight rebounds, he got in early foul trouble and scored just a single point in 21 minutes.

And it didn't matter.

The other starters made it up, largely on threes. Leaky Black? 3-4 on threes. RJ Davis? 3-7 Caleb Love? 3-7. And Pete Nance? 3-6.

FSU kept coming though. Down 43-25 at the half, the ‘Notes rallied to cut the lead t0 64-60 with just 2:45 left.
