GAME 15 NOTEBOOK
• Carolina visits NC State for its second ACC game of the season. The Tar Heels won at Pitt, 85-60, on Saturday to open league play. This season marks the 11th time overall and second time in three seasons the Tar Heels are starting ACC play with two road games (1970, 1972, 1974, 1976, 1978, 1980, 1984, 1998, 2003 and 2017).
