Carolina fans are used to laughing at the little brother school from Raleigh. Hubert Davis is undefeated against NC State, carrying on a tradition on behalf of his previous boss Roy Williams, a man whose hatred for the red and white is famous.
Chuckles abound from Chapel Hill when they hear the phrase “Kevin Keatts is a winner” which is a factually true statement. His 90-68 record at NCSU is +22, and he did guide the Wolfpack to the NCAA Tournament (first round) in 2017-18.
Unfortunately for UNC fans, the time for laughing might be over.
NC State is 20-7 this season, 10-6 in conference play, which is better than Carolina in both regards.
