Put on a pot of coffee and strap in for some late night ACC/Big 10 Challenge action from Chapel Hill tonight. The Tar Heels, ranked seventh in the country, welcome the sixth-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes to the Dean Dome following their trip to the Bahamas over Thanksgiving break. Carolina went 2-1 in those games including a big win over Oregon.
UNC’s offense has struggled to this point in the season, particularly when Cole Anthony hasn’t been able to put up big point totals. Armando Bacot had a breakout performance in the Bahamas, and the Heels will need their other freshman to continue making an impact as the schedule gets even more difficult.
