UNC Basketball: The Tar Heels’ Sweet Sixteen History in the Roy Williams Era

On Friday night, the North Carolina Tar Heels will play in the Sweet Sixteen for the tenth time under head coach Roy Williams. Much was made last weekend about Ol’ Roy’s perfect record in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament, but his record in the Regional Semifinals is (knocks every wood surface in sight) nearly as good. Under Williams, the Tar Heels have gone 8-1 in the Sweet Sixteen.

Here is how the previous nine games have gone:

2005 - UNC- 67 Villanova- 66

Remember back when it felt like WE were the ones who had one on Nova?
