1. Welcome back, Tar Heels. That looked much more like Carolina basketball, as the Heels got the first Atlantic Coast Conference win of the season with a 75-59 victory over Georgia Tech.

2. A big factor in that return to Carolina basketball: the reappearance of Armando Bacot, whose presence inside was something the Jackets could never quite handle. In his first game since suffering a shoulder injury at Indiana, Bacot recorded a double-double with 21 points and 13 rebounds. His 61st game with 10+ rebounds tied a UNC record also held by Billy Cunningham.
