One of the biggest things to worry about before a big game ahead of you is the game before it. That’s the situation UNC faces tonight.
It sure seems like the Tar Heels have pulled out of their tailspin in the nick of time. While projections are mixed about whether or not they are in the NCAA field, they are at least in the discussion thanks to a season-long five-game winning streak and good play on top of that. Unlike earlier in the season, when they were struggling with the ACC bottom dwellers, the Tar Heels have found a new gear and essentially taken hope away from several teams looking for one good win before the season ends—literally, for some squads, as they may not even make the ACC Tournament.
