After holding on at home against a surprisingly-feisty Syracuse squad earlier this week, UNC travels down to Clemson in search of another valuable road win as the end of the regular season inches closer.
With only three games left and a double-bye already secured, the Heels are now fighting for both seeding in the ACC Tournament as well as a share (if not sole possession) of the regular season title. In a dead heat with Tony Bennett’s Cavaliers, both No. 5 North Carolina (23-5, 13-2 ACC) and No. 2 Virginia (25-2, 13-2 ACC) are tied atop the conference standings heading into Saturday’s slate of games.
