1. Carolina earned that win in front of a very hostile environment. In a game that wasn't artistic, Carolina made just enough plays to win it--and enough free throws down the stretch--to beat Virginia Tech, 65-57.
2. In a game between the two best three-point shooting teams in the league, the game was predictably largely perimeter heavy. The decisive stat was Tech's struggles from the arc, as the Hokies went just 5-26 from three. Carolina hit 8-22 from that distance. The two teams combined to go just 4-for-21 from three in the second half, as offense was hard to come by.
