UNC bounced back from an ugly home loss to Pitt on Wednesday to take down a surging Virginia Tech team, 65-57, that had won six straight coming into today. It’s a very important Quad 1 win for the Tar Heels after their possible Quad 4 loss to the Panthers.
Despite the fact that UNC didn’t get much of anything out of their bench again today with just one three-pointer coming from Dontrez Styles, their starters did enough to get the job done in a hostile environment. Hubert Davis rode his starting five pretty hard in the game with no subs playing more than seven minutes and only going eight-deep.
