For the sixth straight year, Roy Williams’ UNC Tar Heels will face Bob McKillop’s Davidson Wildcats in an in-state non-conference game. It’s a good tradition that features a serious clash of styles between Williams’ transition-oriented bully ball and McKillop’s perimeter assault that alerted the world to the existence of Steph Curry. It hasn’t always been easy, but so far, UNC is undefeated in this stretch. What can we expect from this edition of this matchup?
UNC is coming off a frustrating loss to blueblood rivals Kentucky that raised, or at least intensified, questions about the Tar Heels’ defense and ability to perform under pressure.
