For the 17th time in program history, the North Carolina Tar Heels have earned a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament after going 27-6 overall and winning 16 games in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
They were one of three ACC teams to take a No. 1 seed in the tournament with Duke being the overall No. 1 and Virginia taking the top spot in the South. While Duke appears to be the favorite to win it all in some analysts eyes, don’t count the Tar Heels out just yet and if the two teams meet for Round 4, it will be in Minneapolis for the National Championship.
