The North Carolina Tar Heels have put themselves in a tough spot to win the Coastal Division in the Atlantic Coast Conference after dropping a road game at Virginia Tech. Following the disappointing loss, UNC has to win out essentially to win the division.
They have a tough two-game stretch here beginning Saturday with Duke at home before hosting Virginia the following week. But right now, the Tar Heels have to take this one game at a time and make sure they get the win against their rival this week.
The Blue Devils enter this game following a big loss to Virginia last week but have beat North Carolina three-straight years.
