Well, that’s seven losses on the trot. For a team and fanbase that have suffered so many ignominious defeats over the last few months, I’d say “punch drunk” is probably too weak a term to apply to the prevailing mood. But then again “run-over-by-a-stampeding-herd-of-bison drunk,” while more accurate, doesn’t really roll off the tongue the same way. So here we are: punch drunk. But if you squint your eyes really, really hard, you might make out the glimmer of a silver lining from UNC’s loss to Louisville yesterday.
The fact that this didn’t hurt is...hurtful
This was not a moral victory.
