Home court advantage is something that is mostly attributed to the NBA playoffs, but over the past three seasons the concept can be carried over to UNC basketball. Since the 2015-2016 season, North Carolina has lost 21 regular season games. Not bad for a three-season span. Of those 21 regular season losses, only four have come at the Smith Center, with three of them coming in the 2017-2018 season, and zero home court losses coming in 2016-2017. That leaves only one home loss for the 2015-2016 season.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is no small feat. It’s safe to say that everyone that comes to play Carolina comes in with a chip on their shoulder.
