Despite some sloppiness with the ball, UNC found a way to use soul-crushing offensive ability to make the #4 team in the nation play from behind for nearly the entire game. Cameron Johnson was absolutely on fire from distance to help propel the Tar Heels to victory.
As one would expect for a Saturday night against a top 5 team in the Dean Dome, the atmosphere in Chapel Hill felt every bit like the biggest game the Tar Heels have played all season. The crowd did their part, start to finish, and the team more than rose to the occasion against a very good Gonzaga team.
