UNC playing in Hawaii has been devastating for the sleep schedules of their fans on the East Coast, but they gave those who stayed up to watch a thriller in their 92-90 win over Dayton in the quarterfinals of the Maui Invitational Monday night. The final score does not at all tell the story of the wild game the Tar Heels played, forcing themselves to overcome a 21-point deficit to secure the win.
It feels like a broken record at this point, but Carolina seems incapable of playing a strong first half to this point in the season.
